Your lessons are the best preparation for the exams. Take an active part in all lessons and complete all work set.
Science requires a lot of time to revise. Treat it like 3 separate subjects when making a revision plan. Plan time for Biology, Chemistry and Physics revision
Using the AQA specification (button above right) students can see exactly what they have been taught and where gaps in knowledge may be
Science teachers can provide resources if you ask them.
Try to come to intervention or revision sessions prepared with a topic you want to revise (or we will pick what we think you need to do)
The GCSE requires a lot of recall. This means that memorising facts, equations and details about science experiments are vital.
Your language when answering questions must be precise. Make lists of keywords and their definitions.
