the key idea or fact that will

If you are unsure about any of your subject topics, please do refer to the section in
this booklet entitled ‘Subject, Examination Boards, Specification and Revision
Links’ where you will find links to resources, subject topic lists and past papers to
practice.
In addition to the work and guidance that you have received from your teachers,
there is a wealth of resources available to students on subject sites and specific
tasks on Firefly/OneNote.
Use the subject topic check lists as a guide for your revision planning. Focus on
the areas that you know need most of your attention (difficult concepts/gaps in
your learning/topics that were covered earlier in the course).
