Well, it depends. I've never heard of a school not giving a student his soe unless he got expelled or something. And most schools have sent the money and got you registered by now, so they can't really stop you from sitting for the exams.

How did you study for physics and chemistry? Which books? You attended any academy?

One should get rid of application section early. Its very straight forward and gaining marks in super easy plus its interesting..Quick and easy 30 marks !

Use the new physics course book,the one with orange reddish cover,its great...i still curse the older books which were totally pathetic,i got the new one just 1 month before A2 exam and managed a B,where as i had an E in AS and had to give re-exam...

For P5 chem,go through p3 questions and see how they are styled..its a great way to learn answer techniques and table format...

Also,not many students consider Computers a viable subject(not at least at my school) but they should,specially if they plan on applying abroad.Its easy to get an A in..you will even get 8 credit hours for it if you apply to a US university...If anyone needs help regarding computing,than pm me..i might be able to help a bit,somehow i manged an A eventhough the A2 paper went very shitty(didn't expect it to) but AS one was awesome,managed 92% in it

hutchings was the alternative i used in place of vol 1/2 but its also full of useless detail and unnessecary information...Worst thing is,the one i had was at least the 2002 edition,so the syllabus has been changed a lot since than(much more streamlined) and hutchings wasn't helpful at all..the book i am talking about is the official new A level course book,published under the name of cambridge..Someone also mentioned it before in the thread somewhere

here you go: Amazon.com: Cambridge International AS Level and A Level Physics Coursebook with CD-ROM (Cambridge International Examinations) (9780521183086): David Sang, Graham Jones, Richard Woodside, Gurinder Chadha: Books

i think you will be able to pick a cheap second copy for 500-600....it also has a small section in the end about practices and in general i really don't know what to advice other than may be practicing as much as one can..practical papers have been a hit or miss for me in A Levels and one of the reason i got bad grades in AS,we had a shitty lab and even worse faculty

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
