A level physics!

[Yaquub]

I'm doing a2 physics and need help from anyone who did well in physics. I need to get A* in physics to get into my chosen Uni and need all the advice i can get. My friend told me A2 is way harder than A2 and i barely managed an A grade.

Any tips? since i'm not doing a level maths it's more difficult but not impossible since my brother did well in it without maths a level knowledge.

What books should i buy and what website should i use?

Help a geeljire in need! send me any notes you have.

I found khan academy on YouTube very helpful

Why buy books when you can get PDFS for free?

If A level is pre - uni physics do not worry about books ,useless imo, in stead focus on doing as many questions as you can.You will develop a "intrinsic" feel for all questions.

Finally, dont get books with worked examples! Good luck.

Yeah my friend got A* and said he used khan academy and mathsandphysicstutor.com

Any tips for revision and understanding concepts?

Watch YouTube videos. And most importantly don't convince yourself you can't do it because I did that many times and it psychologically messed me up even tho I went over it again and learnt it from someone who could explain it better.

Am doing that right now. I found some good videos on Youtube that help big. There is difference between working on the problems yourself and watching someone else do it. Problems seem easy when I watch. I must get used to doing them without help to get quick on the solutions during actual tests/quizzes because there is only 50 minutes 5 of which is used for filling out stupid form for IDs. And the lady professor is so bad ass she doesn't even think she is teaching the class but makes assumptions we are experts. Bullshit.

Popular physics is so cool and easy. Am doing calculus based physics now, so it is a little harder than the average problems I used to deal with.
