A Level Maths Academy
Practical guides on exam technique, the command words on your papers and how to study the course, written by a tutor who teaches it every week.
Past papers are the best practice there is, and there are more of them than you might think. When to start them, which order to do them in, and how to mark them like an examiner.
Edexcel uses two versions of this instruction and they differ by one word. If you misread which one you've got, a correct answer can score nothing.
On a detailed reasoning question the right answer on its own can score nothing. This is what OCR and MEI mark schemes look for, and the habit that tends to lose the most marks.
The phrase means some of the marks are for explaining rather than calculating, and you can lose them with a correct answer. This is what AQA's examiners accept.
The four areas of exam technique I'd suggest working on, from practising under timed conditions to going back over your mistakes properly, and how to practise each one.
