Chemistry
Coming soon... or maybe not, can you balme me for
never wanting to look back at che-misery again?
All right, all right! I'll give you some recommendations below:
My Recommended Resources
Textbooks:
-
Pearson Edexcel A Level Chemistry (Year 1 and Year 2)
-
The main textbook we used at my school
-
Has all the information you need
-
Very wordy
-
Great for assessed practicals, do the questions, okay?
-
Good to build a foundation of knowledge (probably why we
use it in school hahaha) -
I can't lie, I hardly used this textbook other than the end-of-chapter questions
-
HEAVY, save your back and buy the online version
-
-
CGP A-Level Chemistry: OCR A Year 1 & 2 Complete Revision & Practice
-
*Chefs kiss* cuts to the chase, no waffle​
-
BUT this is best for revision not for learning the content
-
10/10 puns that will keep you going (or make you roll your eyes)
-
-
My Revision Notes: Edexcel A Level Chemistry

​This book was my saviour for quickly revisiting all the spec
with only the key points -
Great diagrams (especially when learning reactions/mechanisms)
-
Very concise
-
-
Edexcel AS/A level Chemistry Student Book 1 (and 2)

My favourite book to revise with, wish I had purchased it sooner!
