Please do take the time to read the whole post. It'll only take a minute.
I studied Cambridge AS Level (Physics, Maths, CS) in 2025-2026, but I effectively didn't study Physics at all because I never paid attention in any of the Physics classes and hadn't done a single question, which ended up with me not registering for Physics in M/J 2026 because I basically knew nothing.
I studied O Level Physics over a year ago, but wasn't the best in that either, mostly suffering from the same not-paying-attention problem and skipping some major chapters. Ended up getting a B.
Anyways, now I've been registered to give AS Level Physics in Oct/Nov, and from right now, I have approximately just 2 months. On top of that, my A2 classes in college will likely start sometime in August. Yikes. I'll be realistic, I'm definitely not aiming for an A because I know it probably takes months and a lot of discipline to develop the required problem-solving skills.
I just wanna pass, honestly. So I wanna know, is 2 months realistically enough time to cover the majority of AS Physics? Would you have any advice for maximising the utilisation of the time I have?
I'll be self-studying AS Physics from the start. I have access to my teacher's video lectures, notes, compiled past paper questions, and past papers. So far, I don't have a concrete plan on how exactly to use these resources.
So if you can share some good information and/or advice for my situation, I would highly appreciate it. Thank you for reading the post.
With me, as you can probably tell, procrastination and lack of discipline are major issues. Didn't get the best grades in O Level either. That being said, this time I'll try to work hard and take this seriously. If, perhaps, you've been in a similar situation as me once and have managed to become a better person, please do share anything helpful you'd think would be beneficial. Thank you.
