Hi there,
I finished my AS year and in September I should be entering my A2 year, but there are a few problems. I am doing Politics, Business, Law and Sociology. I did bad and I am very disappointed and angry at myself. In all fairness I had personal problems along the way… So I got an E in politics, a D in law, a D in business and a C in sociology. I would have to do Business, Law and Sociology to carry on. I don’t know what to do and what my options are. I am scared to go into second year with them grades as not many unis will be interested and I am not keen. I am thinking of restarting the year; could you help me please.
Thank you.
As you are probably aware, I was in a similar position to you. My advice would be to continue on to your 2nd year and retake your exams – you can turn it around if you focus and execute the 3-step plan in How to ACE Your A-levels.
Hi, I have read the book and it motivated me. Now, I am when I start next week I am going to do 2 hours every day just repeating what I am doing and once a week on a week end I will try to go over all of that already. Is this a good technique>?
Hi raja
I have a question that you said not to take notes during class but then you mention to use the five channels to revise during class which includes writing. In addition if we face something new in class that we haven’t gone through at home and teacher makes a very important point which is not there in the text book and we don’t know about it then no note taking technique might get us into a mess
When I mentioned using the 5 channels, I was referring to listening in class to understand the material being presented. It’s difficult to truly listen and write neat/organised notes at the same time. If you know that the textbook is all you need, I would avoid coming out of class with pages and pages of notes. However, if your teachers mentioned a few things that are not in the textbook, by all means keep a note of it. best thing to do is write it on a post it and stick it to the relevant page in your textbook.
Hi,
Reading your book and already impressed and feel more confident, however I’ve structured my revision so I’m doing 2 parts of two subjects each night and then layering them after I’ve went through all my subjects the first time. Is this a good thing? Or should I only focus on one subject at a time?
Regards
I received BCCD in my AS results and I need AAB-AAA at A2 to get into the University of Exeter. I just ordered your book right in the hopes that I can get those A’s. I just wanted to ask that with the AS grades I got(going to remark my politics paper to get it to a B, so let’s say with BBC grades at AS), do you think I can push them up to an AAB/AAA at A2?
I recently found out that I got BCCD in my AS grades which I was very disappointed in because of how much effort I put in. I am hoping on getting AAB/AAA at A2 and going on to study international relations at the university if Exeter. I have just ordered your book and do you think that if I use your techniques I could do it? Also I am re-marking one of my papers(politics) and hoping to push that up to a B; so I am hoping on getting BBC at AS and going further with that, so can I realistically achieve AAB with your revision technques because your story truly motivated me.
Hi, I recently got my results and was devastated. I got C”s and 1 D. My parents expected a lot from me, and I disappointed them as much as myself. I need help and advice… please if you can contact me through email.

Hi Mark,
Most definitely yes. I have done it, seen others do it and helped others do it. Execute our 3 step plan and focus throughout the year. You’ll be fine!
