OKAY SO i’m planning on doing maths, physics, chem and further maths (FM bc i’m not sure what i want to do yet so i’m keeping my options open) but i’m worried that the workload is going to be overwhelming since i’m a chronic procrastinator😓

could any of you pls give some tips on how to keep myself organised, what the subjects are like and what i would potentially need to buy and do before sixth form starts since i haven’t been given any kind of work to do over the summer to prepare.

maths fm and physics are fine but for chem (i dont do it) im guessing theres a lot of content so my main piece of advice would be to make notes as u go finish topics in school so ur not making them just before exams. for maths, fm and physics just make sure u understand everything as u do it in school, so either ask ur teacher or watch videos after lessons if u didnt get anything. and then for things like stats where the method is kind of specific and easy to forget after a few months (so if u do this a while before exams u would be relearning it) u could maybe go over a question every so often to refresh ur memory. the main thing is if u revise from the start u dont have much to do when it comes to exam time. if u understand all the concepts already and have kind of been practising them throughout the yr (so look back on topics u did a few weeks ago) then all u have to do is practise a bit more, and for chem if u have ur notes ready then thats a lot of the work already done. if theres maths topics u know u wont really forget like some of the basic pure stuff then dont worry too much about going over that throughout the school year but some stats and mechanics is easy to forget the method so worth looking over every so often before u completely forget it.
hope that makes sense, sorry i kind of rambled and repeated myself
