- Attempt a question before looking at the explanation. Record the point where you get stuck.
- Use the matching guide to repair that gap, then solve a fresh question without the notes.
- Check your working, units and final answer. Put recurring errors into your next revision session.
Teachers and parents can share links to these free resources with students. The full journal also covers past papers, exam technique and choosing tuition.
