Just had my mock exam at the end of year 12 I think that I done awful, only around 30% of the questions I actually knew what I was doing on. The thing is in secondary I've never had to revise because everything was easy for me and to an extent I don't really need to revise for my other two subjects, Maths and Physics, to get about an A, so I've never really revised and this exam has really made it hit me how badly I need to start revising, especially for Further Maths. My teacher has told me if I had been working hard since the beginning I could get an A*. For some reason I never even thought of using the textbooks but it's a great idea, hopefully with your advice I can reach my full potential for FM next year and get an A*. :)
I pretty much decided on econ, maths, politics and sociology for my A levels but seems like further maths is really considered in top unis especially LSE 😭 I may have to pick FM instead of politics and socio then 😭
Exam in 6 weeks. I'm currently on an E. Let's see if I can pull the same thing lol. (I also take economics btw, on a solid B and I'm hoping ya videos gonna get me that A*)
@@shujaali1599 Think I'm gonna get an A in economics? And I have no idea if I passed further maths or not >.< Lol ask me in a few weeks when I get me results
Thanks for this video ❤️ I’m just concerned that in my case I have to complete the whole of maths in year 1 and then FM in year 2. Idk how I’m gonna be able to cope with doing all of maths in one year because I didn’t take FM for gcse ( I didn’t even get told it was a thing until mid of year 11 when it was too late) and I’m not the strongest at maths but I really want to do it for uni. Do you have any tips/advice?
This is exactly what happened to me briefly - the best advice I can give you is use your textbooks!! Stay on top of everything by revising for a few hours every week at least. Don’t worry - believe in yourself and you will be fine. It’s hard and it’s intense, but you can do it x
@@jxlly1404 Hey I got an 8 in gcse but I didn’t actually sit the GCSEs due to covid so it’s just teacher’s prediction. I just finished my a levels including FM and it was definitely hard but quite good!
Hi Thanks for your support. I wanna ask you can I study only A level further mathematics without doing AS further mathematics? Could u please let me know
Hey pari. I just got my As results today and idk how I’m exactly in a situation as you. I gave 4 subjects in my As which are Physics, Maths, Further Maths and Economics. I got an A in Phy maths and econ but I ended up getting a D in Further maths. I’m really lost and I was considering dropping further maths. I plan to study economics in the future and I’m hoping for the top unis. Listening to you I feel I really need some more advising. If you had time could you please help
hey, do have any advice for for how to revise for gcse maths? i got a 5 before lockdown but i want to get an 8 in my mocks in two months so i can do further maths, i know the jump is between those grades quite big but i’m willing to put to work in to achieve it
Hey! Check out my “how I got a 9 in GCSE maths” video - it breaks down everything I did to revise for it. You can most certainly do it as long as you put your mind to it :)
hey, what are you working at now?? do you think you’re going to get an 8 because i want the same thing to happen to me, i want to do a level maths, further maths, business studies and history
@@_angeell hey, i’ve finished my gcse cause i was in year 11 when i posted that, i haven’t got my results yet but i’m pretty sure i did good enough to get an 8 on my final mock. Using mathsgenie helped me A LOT with topics i didn’t understand, i would print out their checklist and go through everything i didn’t understand there then do past papers after i’ve gone through every topic i struggle on, i’d then mark them and see whether my marks were lost from mistakes or a lack of knowledge on the topic, afterwards i would go through the topic again if it’s a lack of knowledge then do questions specifically on that topic to make sure i understand it completely
@@_angeell oh sorry if you’re a year 11 as well btw, i thought u were asking for tips 😭 but i do feel like i’ll get an 8 considering how i did on my last mock. hbu?
Yes that’s true, that is their minimum requirement - however, if you think about the competition in terms of the type of people that apply, they will not only meet LSEs requirements, but will exceed them, too. So try to go above their expectations if you can :)
