As summer draws to a close and that school bell gets ever so closer to ringing now is the time to get a head start on the competition. September is a great time to get ahead for your science GCSE. Here are a few tips:

• Review the basics. Before you start learning new content, take some time to review the basics that you learned in previous years. This will help you to solidify your understanding and make it easier to learn new concepts.
• Set goals. What do you want to achieve in science this year? Do you want to get a 9 in your exams? Or do you just want to improve your understanding of the subject? Once you know what you want to achieve, you can start to make a plan for how you will reach your goals.
• Create a revision timetable. Once you know what you need to learn, it's important to create a revision timetable. This will help you to stay on track and make sure that you are covering all of the content.
• Use different revision techniques. There are many different revision techniques that you can use. Some people prefer to create flashcards or mind maps. Experiment with different techniques to find what works best for you. The most important thing is to actively engage with the content. 
• Practice past papers. One of the best ways to prepare for your science GCSE exams is to practice past papers. This will help you to get used to the format of the exams and to identify any areas where you need to improve.
• Get help if you need it. If you are struggling with any aspects of science, don't be afraid to ask for help. There are many resources available to you, such as your teachers, your parents, and online resources.
• Get a Tutor The right tutor can be an invaluable asset while you negotiate this crucial time. Every subject demands your attention, be aware of your own gaps and discuss these with your tutor. This will ensure you are prepared for your mocks (which are not that far away). This is especially important in science if you are considering separate sciences or higher papers. 

By following these tips, you can use September to get ahead for your science GCSE. By the time the exams come around, you will be well-prepared to achieve your goals.

Here are some additional tips that you may find helpful:

• Find a study buddy. Studying with a friend can be a great way to stay motivated and learn from each other.
• Take breaks. It's important to take breaks when you are revising so that you don't get too stressed. Get up and move around, or do something else that you enjoy.
• Reward yourself. When you reach a goal, reward yourself with something that you enjoy. This will help you to stay motivated.

I hope these tips help you to get ahead for your science GCSE. Good luck! If you are interested in tuition please get in contact HERE
