✅ Final Tips for AQA English Language Paper 2

🗂️ Know the difference between the texts
Paper 2 is all about comparing writers’ viewpoints and perspectives. Make sure you:

• Identify each writer’s attitude and tone when you first real the sources.

• Use quotes + techniques to support your points

• Compare consistently: use phrases like ‘both writers…’, ‘however…’, and ‘in contrast…’

📝 Know the structure
Q1: Quick and accurate
Q2: Evidence to summarise, then inference
Q3: Language analysis (zoom in!)
Q4: Comparison (viewpoints, methods, tone)
Q5: Non-fiction writing (article, speech, letter BUT PLAN IT FIRST!)

✍️ For Q5: Plan before writing
Decide on your argument, tone, and structure before you start. Whether it’s persuasive or informative, having a clear plan makes a huge difference.

Final Exam Tips

🔍 Highlight command words + annotate everything
Before you answer, underline the command word (describe, explain, compare) and annotate graphs, tables, and question wording. Understanding what they’re really asking saves time, and boosts accuracy.

🧠 Explain properly
If the question says ‘Explain,’ check your answer: does it say why something happens? Does it actually answer the question? This sounds obvious, but it’s where marks are lost most often.

📝 Plan longer answers to avoid waffle
Do a quick brain dump or bullet list before writing extended responses. It keeps your answer structured and makes sure you’re ticking off enough points for the number of marks.

📚 Use your biology vocabulary
These papers are built for you to show off your content knowledge. So avoid vague phrases and use the key terms, definitions, and processes you’ve revised. Think: mark scheme language.

🧪 Identify the topic
Even if a question looks unfamiliar, it’s always linked to something from the spec. Take a breath, read the context, and ask: ‘What topic is this actually testing?’

Hello lovelies!

Just a quick reminder that your A-Level Maths Paper 1 exam is tomorrow: I mean, how could you forget?!

We’ve just got some quick tips and links to support you for tonight and tomorrow!

Sign up to night before sessions, with predicted papers and walkthroughs included HERE!

📄 1. Multi-part Questions

Questions with multiple parts often use the previous part of the question too, shown by the word ‘hence’. Even if you couldn’t complete the first part, you can still attempt the next one: don’t leave it blank.

🧮 2. Prove It

When you are asked to prove something, these typically require algebraic reasoning: don’t just give an example with numbers. Show the logic clearly and work through the general case.

🔍 3. Solving Equations

When you form a quadratic or cubic example to zero, you can just use your calculator to solve it, UNLESS they ask for full workings.

Hello lovelies!

Half term’s here, and if you’re wondering how to actually revise without total burnout, here’s how to use the time properly (and without burning out).

Sign up to night before sessions, with predicted papers and walkthroughs included HERE!

1. Treat it like a school day, but shorter!

Aim for two or three subjects a day max, and keep it focused. Try 45 minutes of revision followed by a 15-minute break. Mornings or early afternoons tend to work best because then your evenings are free. If it helps, team up with a friend to quiz each other (as long as you can stay focused!).

We’ve got tons of resources, free and paid, over on the Academy.

2. Prioritise what you don’t know yet

Sorry! We know it’s tempting to stick to topics that feel safe, but now’s the time to be honest with yourself. What are your weak spots? Half term is your best chance to fill the gaps and finally tackle that topic you’ve been avoiding.

3. Actually take time off

This is important. Half term is a reset, not a punishment. Go outside, see friends, switch off for a bit. Just don’t let “rest” turn into “I’ll start later.” Find that balance but remember, the break is meant to be part of your prep.

4. Mental health over over-revision

If you’re tired, stressed or overwhelmed, your brain won’t take anything in. A calm, focused hour of revision is better than five anxious ones. Rest is productive too.

So, to sum up? Use the time well, but don’t let it use you. You’ve got time and you’ve got the tools. Enjoy half term!

Hello lovelies!
English Language is another big one, so we didn’t want to leave you hanging.

Whether you’re doing AQA or Edexcel, Paper 1 is all about how well you understand and craft language—so here's how to make the most of your final revision time.

✍️ 3 Last-Minute Tips for Language Paper 1

✅ 1. Read Like a Writer, Not Just a Reader
In the reading section, when asked to analyse language or structure, focus on how the writer creates effect—not just what happens. Ask yourself:

• What language/structural techniques are used?

• What’s the tone or mood?

• Why has the writer done that?

🧠 2. Plan Creative Writing Before You Write
Give yourself a few minutes to plan your structure for your creative writing. Whether it's a story or a description, think:

• What's my opening image?

• How will it shift or develop?

• What’s my final line?

🔁 3. Practice Pacing with a Paper
Tonight, take a look at our papers and do just one or two questions under timed conditions. You might even just plan what you would say, and then watch our walkthroughs to see what we said!

Hello lovelies!

Us again. I always just want to share our resources with you so that at least that part’s easier for you!

As always here are a few key tips to sharpen your technique and boost your confidence, plus links to revision videos, resources and our live support sessions the night before the exam.

📄 1. Use the Equation Sheet

Seriously. Don’t waste time trying to recall formulas if they’re given to you.

• Always check the equation sheet first

• Match up the units in the question

• If you're unsure of the unit, look at the context, or use dimensional analysis (what units cancel out to get what you need)

🧮 2. Show All Your Working Clearly

Even if your final answer is wrong, you can still grab method marks.

• Write the formula

• Sub in the numbers

• Show your steps, especially in energy, electricity, and particle model calculations

🔍 3. Read the Question Carefully… Especially Multi-Step Ones

Physics loves to layer information.

• Use values from part (a) in part (b)

• Underline key values, units, or tricky wording

• Pay close attention to command words like calculate, explain, describe. They tell you how much detail is needed

A-Level Psychology Paper 2 is tomorrow, meaning you’re nearly past half way, and it’s all about applying what you know with clarity and structure.

Here are three tips to sharpen your answers, boost your confidence, and get exam-ready tonight:

🧠 1. Master Research Methods – It’s Always There

Research methods are everywhere, so this is the safest topic to sharpen up tonight. Make sure you:

• Know the differences between experimental designs (independent groups, repeated measures, matched pairs)

• Can explain strengths and weaknesses of each method (e.g. lab vs field vs natural experiments)

• Understand how to handle ethical issues, variables, reliability, validity, and basic maths skills (like calculating the mean or identifying types of data)

🧪 2. Structure Application Answers Clearly

Paper 2 includes application-based questions. Here's how to approach them:

1. Underline key bits of the scenario

2. Identify what topic it's testing

3. Match it to a specific theory or concept

4. Apply it directly using that context

📚 3. (FOR AQA) Don’t Forget Approaches + Biopsychology

It’s easy to focus too much on research methods and neglect the rest so tonight, quickly review:

• Key features of each psychological approach (especially biological, cognitive, and psychodynamic)

• Biopsychology content like the nervous system, endocrine system, and localisation of function

• AO1 = Define the concept clearly

• AO2 = Apply it to a scenario

• AO3 = Evaluate it with strengths/limitations, research support, or real-world relevance

Guys, you’re nearly free of English Literature!

Paper 2 is nearly here, and whether you're doing AQA or Edexcel, this one's packed with content. But don’t panic obviously. You don’t need to revise everything tonight. You just need to be smart with your time.

Here are three key tips to help you feel in control tomorrow and walk into the exam knowing what you're doing:

Giphy

🔁 1. Base Your Quote Revision on Themes

You don’t need to memorise 30 quotes per text. Focus on 3–4 key themes (e.g. power, identity, conflict, love), and learn quotes that can be used across multiple themes.

📌 This works for AQA’s modern texts and for Edexcel’s 19th-century novels too (and of course, your Anthology poetry too.

🖊️ 2. For Unseen Poetry: Annotate Before You Answer

Jumping straight into writing is tempting, but trust us: it’ll slow you down later.
Spend 2–3 minutes:

• Underlining techniques

• Noting feelings, tones, or shifts

• Identifying structure and language methods

📝 3. Do a Quick Practice Paper Tonight

You don’t need to write a full response, but take 15–20 minutes to plan answers from a predicted paper. Focus on:

• Structuring your response

• Picking flexible quotes

• Writing one or two clear paragraphs

📄 Download Our Predicted Papers Here

Use them to quickly test what you know, and boost your confidence.

🧠 Just a Quick Reminder:

• AQA Paper 2 = Modern text + Poetry + Unseen poetry

• Edexcel Paper 2 = 19th-century text + Poetry (including comparison)

Whichever one you’re sitting, tomorrow’s paper is your chance to show how well you understand the big ideas, not just the quotes. Use your themes. Stay calm. Be clear.

You’ve done so much already: tonight’s just about polishing it off.
You’ve got this. Go in confident.

Hi lovelies.

Gosh, exam season really is in full swing, isn’t it?

Your AQA A-Level Sociology Paper 1 is almost here, and the night before isn’t about cramming, it’s about refining. We know you know the stuff - it’s just about how you’re getting it down!

Here are a few final strategies to sharpen your exam technique and turn all your hard work into clear, confident answers.

A-Level Sociology Predicted Papers…

📌 3 Smart Final Tips for Sociology Paper 1

✅ 1. Named Sociologists = Guaranteed Marks
One thing is for sure: include specific theorists or studies in your longer answers. Vague references like “some sociologists argue…” isn’t going to cut it!

📝 2. Plan 10 Mark and 20/30 Mark Answers Before Writing
It’s easy to waffle under pressure. Spend 2–3 minutes outlining:

• Your key points or paragraphs

• Which study or theory you’ll apply

• Where you’ll analyse vs. evaluate

🔄 3. Link Back to the Question Constantly
In every paragraph, use phrases like:
“This supports the view that…”, “However, this challenges the claim…”, or “In the context of the question…”

Sorry to make you cringe with your own slang…

Just wanted to check in because GCSE Chemistry Paper 1 is tomorrow! We know by now that the difference between a decent grade and a great one often comes down to how you answer, not just what you know.

Below are some tips to help you today and tomorrow, along with some useful links for revision resources, both free and paid!

Scroll down for your exam board!

🧮 1. Show Full Working in Calculations

Always write every step:

• State the formula

• Rearrange it (if needed)

• Plug in values with correct units

• Check your answer is to the correct significant figures or decimal places as specified in the question and your answer is in the units the question requires. If no units are given make sure you include these in your answer

🧪 2. Be Specific in Practical Questions

You’ll often be asked to describe a method - get technical and precise:

• Name equipment properly (measuring cylinder, not just "tube")

• Use quantities, concentrations, and specific reactants

• Explain how data is collected, repeated, and why

• Make sure it is clear what the dependent, independent and control variables are when writing the method

🧠 3. Use the Right Scientific Language

Avoid vague phrases. Instead of:
