Are there any tips you can give me to ensure that I do really well in my A-Levels?
Thanks.

Use any past exam papers that you can get your hands on, don't leave homework or assignments till the last minute, get stuck into them straight away and give yourself more time to research and check everything or redo if necessary and lots of hard slogging unfortunately.  Best of luck.

Past Papers are the key for GCSE And A level  towards the end of the year just keep doing past papers maybe one a week then really hit them hard a few weeks before the exams. The question criteria for exam bodies is so strict for alot youll usually get quite a few questions just recycled from previous papers obv reworded a little.

Other than that little and often is the best way you dont have to spend all your time revising or working just an hour here and there throughout the year will really make the difference.

you should definetly start going over the stuff you've done 4rm the 1st day. I didnt until there was 2months b4 the exams and although my grades werent particularly bad, i couldve dne better. If u hav tym have a headstart over the summer 4 lyk 1hour a day. Tht should help. And make sure u use as many resources as possible. Good luck with nxt year.

Organization is key so, buy folders. Paper basically everything you need. A planner.
When you have free time DO THE WORK THEN otherwise it'll pile up and cause you grief later.
Study if you have no homework.

Read books. Especially for English. Start reading now if you don't already.

Always go through your class notes at least once a week. Review what you have learnt and what you don't understand or feel a bit giffy with. Go and see your teacher and get them to resolve it. Who cares if you think you'll be pestering them it is your future. E-Mail them 24/7. Make them work.

Always check through any work you summit. Including your Personal Statement for Uni entrance.

In Art always collect resources to work from and keep hold of them. And always annotate your sketch book as you go along!!! I remember GCSE, having to wait at the end of the 2 years trying to annotate every single piece I had done is sooooooooooo boring and fustrating.
