CivicSport Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 main points, equations, reactions etc straight copying over and over and over again is me. I need soo much paper. Its the only way i can revise. past papers, mark schemes, copying over and over again. straight reading doesnt do it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CivicSport Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 ICT is some joke thing. If you dont have certain words you dont get the marks, on AQA that is. so frustrating, so yeah past papers and mark schemes is def the way to revise fort hat.
