Maths Revision

The science exam is heavily driven by knowledge and understanding of content. It is therefore important that you revise as much of the content as possible. To do this effectively, you should ensure you are engaging the material as fully as possible - just reading over it or highlighting is not an efficient use of time. You would be better of using any of the following approaches:

  • Log in to Seneca, click onto 'Courses', choose the subject you want to revise and start answering the questions (message Mr Bedford on Teams if you need Seneca login details)
  • Visit BBC Bitesize (https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/examspecs/z8r997h), choose the topic you need, summarise the information using pen and paper (don't just copy it out!)
  • If you have the revision guide, there are plenty of exam style questions you can use for practice. Check you work with the answers here - https://global.oup.com/education/content/secondary/key-issues/oxford-revise-science/answers/?region=uk). If you don't have a revision guide but would like one, please purchase via scopay then collect from Mr Bedford. 
  • There are plenty of past papers available on the AQA website (look under Assessment Resources)

A significant minority of marks in the science exams are for mathematical questions. You should make sure you know how to draw graphs correctly, calculate means, interpret graphs and tables of data, etc. Again, these can be practiced using the revision guide or past paper materials.
