    Hi, I am doing Irish, German, Tech, Geography, English, History, Science, Maths, Religion, Business and CSPE (all higher level, except for CSPE ofc). Do you think, that hardcore studying from here until June will be enough for all As?

    Do you have any advice for studying Maths, Tech?

    For English what do you think, I should do? Should I try and learn off important points for Paper 2 and a rehearsed personal writing piece. The rest I am fine with.

    How many hours of homework and studying do you think I should be doing?

    Thanks

    I am doing 2 hours study a night since after Christmas and whatever homework I have. For english I am learning quotes for drama and fiction, about 100/150 for each and the main points for each essay. I am learning 3 poems, a war poem, a death poem and a nature poem. I think I will be doing the debate speech for personal writing.

    I was told a while ago something along the lines of 'maths is not a spectator sport' so practise on all the questions is the best way to go.

    I think they said that in reference to the fact that it's not really possible to 'study' maths in the same way as other subjects, the only way to improve is by doing questions over and over until you can get them correct

    The OP asked for help with maths, the poster was replying to them. No need to be rude.

    MY APOLOGIES, I read the previous posts completely wrong. Wasn't trying to be rude! I thought that he was talking about the personal writing in the English exam...
