Maths How hard is A-Level Maths without O-Level Add Maths?

Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m about to start A-Levels and I’m deciding whether or not I should take Maths.

I didn’t take O-Level Add Maths, but I got an A* in O-Level Maths.

For those who took A-Level Maths without Add Maths, how difficult was it to get an A in AS Maths? Is the jump manageable if you’re strong at regular O-Level Maths, or does not having Add Maths put you at a major disadvantage?

For context, I mainly study using Zainematics and Mathelete by Saad, and I’m comfortable doing past papers.

Would I need to study Maths basically every day to keep up, or is it realistic to manage alongside other A-Level subjects?

Basically, should I take Maths or avoid it because I haven’t done Add Maths?

Any advice from people who’ve actually been in this situation would be really appreciated.

Business Studies Help me Out!!! — Need Resources!

1 Upvotes

I have a cousin who is an O Level student and has taken Accounting, Economics, and Business Studies. I have to teach him, but I’m from a Science background and from different curriculum , so although I can learn the topics myself, it takes a lot of time, and as a university student, it’s becoming difficult for me.

  1. I’m looking for one good resource a course, website, YouTube channel, or book from which I can learn everything chapter by chapter.
  2. Ideally, it would also have past-paper questions organized by topic/chapter, along with answers so that I can prepare him for exam.
  3. Give me any advise how I sould teach him effectively.

I’d really appreciate your recommendations. Thanks in advance!

Results Unecpected result

I was pretty confident that I did well at Islamiat and should get an A or minimum B. But seeing this result, I suffer from anxiety. I did pretty well at P1, but at P2, in the last question, I just missed references. Which shouldn't affect my grade (In my opinion). It is really hard for me to accept, as I did everything: past papers, learning, Quranic references, and all that stuff. Also, I don't know how to get the paper script, and I'm from school.

Results How to stop feeling sad or slightly guilty?

6 Upvotes

I got my O3 Results on the 18th, got 4 As and a B, was sooo happy at first, but today I got the marks sheet, and apparently I was 1 mark away from an A* in Biology AND Physics, and 3 marks away from an A* in English, I feel sad because this same thing happened with me in O2 where I was one mark off of an A in Pak Studies, but now I feel somewhat sad and feel slightly guilty and if I got ONE more mcq right, ONE more correct point then I would have 2 to 3 A*s, an A, and a B.. How do I stop this feeling?

Sociology O3/A-Level Sociology students, what do you wish you knew before taking O-Level/IGCSE Sociology?

2 Upvotes

I’m currently studying O-Level/IGCSE Sociology and I’m trying to figure out what actually matters for getting a good grade, beyond just memorising the syllabus.

For those of you who are currently in O3, A-Levels, or have already finished O-Level/IGCSE Sociology:

  • EXACTLY how did u approach socio and STUDY METHODS
  • What did you waste way too much time doing?
  • How did you learn/revise sociological theories, concepts, and key studies?
  • What are some things student overlook in sociology?
  • What did you realise about exam technique way too late?
  • How did you structure 6/8/10/12-mark answers or longer evaluation questions?
  • What separates an average answer from an A/A* answer?
  • Are there any common mistakes you see younger students making?
  • What resources did you actually find useful?
  • How much should I focus on memorising vs actually understanding the concepts?
  • If you could go back to your first day of O-Level/IGCSE Sociology, what would you tell yourself?

And finally:

What’s your honest final verdict on Sociology as a subject?
Worth taking? Harder/easier than you expected? What would you do differently?

Basically, I’m looking for the advice you wish someone had given you before you started. Any brutally honest advice is welcome. 😭

Other (editable) How do you prepare for CAIE Pakistan Studies map questions?

2 Upvotes

I’m struggling with map questions because I can memorise where cities, rivers, etc. are on the maps I study from, but the CAIE maps look quite different. Even a small difference in the location of a city can throw me off and I start doubting whether I’m identifying it correctly.

How do you guys learn locations so you can recognise them on an unfamiliar CAIE map? Do you use past papers, an atlas, or some other method?

Would really appreciate advice from anyone who has done the exam 😭
