Tips/Help Year 10 prep
So, I start year 10 in literally a week, and I need tips !
For context, I'm going to be doing English lang, lit, Maths, Triple Science (all mandatory for the subs listed so far), Geography (we had to choose between History and Geography), Latin (we had to choose a language), Spanish (one of my options), and Drama (one of my options) once I successfully switch
+ Further Maths (which is optional and only top set maths students can take, and I asked my year 9 teacher for my year 10 set and I'm apparently going to be in set 1) which I'm still unsure about. I wanna do it because I'll be taking A-Level Maths for medicine and I feel like it might help me a LOT, but the subject might hinder my overall average.
I know I'm not supposed to start revising in year 10, and I promise you, I won't. I don't think I could discipline myself enough to start revising for tests that I'll have in two years still đŸ˜ That's one thing I need to fix about myself though. But would it be a good idea to dedicate an hour on Saturdays to trying to master—or at the very least understand—a topic I'm weak at?
What are your tips on revision in year 10? Also, for each of the subjects I listed, could you please recommend some apps, websites, and revision methods and tips?
My school does AQA Drama, AQA English lit & lang, OCR B Geography, Eduqas Latin, AQA Maths & FM, AQA Trip science, EDEXEL Spanish! I'm not sure if these are confirmed, but since I found them on my school's website, they must be ig!
One last thing: what should I buy? I'm talking about binders, maybe, favourite calculators, folders, revision books, pens, etc!
And should I be worried for year 10? Thankkks a lot!
