GUIDES
Revision guides
Practical guides to revising by topic, building mocks and keeping a whole syllabus moving — each on one real problem, written by Momentum.
Practising by topic
How to revise Cambridge A Level Physics 9702 by topic
A topic-by-topic way to revise 9702: which chapters to pair, how to practise and mark each one, and what to skip in papers from older syllabuses.
How to revise Cambridge A Level Mathematics 9709: papers, routes and topics
Which 9709 papers make up AS and A Level, the order to revise each strand in, how method marks work, and how to use papers set before 2020.
Topical questions or full past papers: when to use each
Topical sets and full past papers train different things. What each is for, the trap in each, and a sequence that uses both from first lesson to exam.
Mock exams
How to build a timed mock exam from the chapters you have covered
Build a realistic timed mock before you finish the syllabus: choosing chapters and questions, setting the time, sitting it properly and using the marks.
Planning revision
How to find your weak syllabus topics, and fix them
Find weak topics from evidence rather than feeling, tell what kind of weakness each is, and fix it in short cycles until it holds up in mixed questions.
For teachers
For teachers: setting a syllabus-aligned practice test from past-paper questions
How to set a practice test from past-paper questions that matches the syllabus points you have taught, is timed like the exam and shows what to reteach.
