GCSE Revision 101 discussion forum

For those of you who need help or have questions…

Please try out the GCSE Revision 101 discussion board on our Facebook fan page. I’m getting to the stage now unfortunately where I cannot constantly be updating the site, and to tell you the truth, some of the physics and chemistry questions you ask me (since I’ve dropped them subjects now), I can’t even answer anymore, I’ve forgotten it all! So I thought why not promote the discussions threads available on the fan page?

How to get discussing…

If you do need help, have any questions relating to the course content or want to help others, then please:

1. Become a fan on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/pages/GCSE-Revision-101/88363810973
2. Click on the Discussions tab to enter the Facebook forum (or head straight to the board here)
3. Post threads and get asking and answering questions with other GCSE Revision 101-ers

Of course though, if you have any questions about the site itself or anything to ask me personally, you can still reach me through here, but for faster responses and just for the new technology, let’s give it a go! Hope these help!

Updated notes for B1a, B1b, C1a, C1b, P1a and P1b

Hello there, I understand the link for the Module 1 notes is now old and obsolete, as the download link has now broken. Please download all of your B1, C1 and P1 notes from the link provided below:

http://www.mediafire.com/?4grwxm310autbhd

If this download link ever becomes broken (i.e. the file gets deleted), please leave a comment letting me know, and I’ll reupload it as soon as possible. The only reason these notes don’t have their own page is because I did these notes before I set up the site. All the other module notes, as well as those for Business and Maths are still available as per usual from the links at the top of the site!

Hope this helps you all, and hope everyone’s exams went alright,
Dan!

[This file is a .rar so you will need to extract the three PDFs using an extractor tool, such as WinRAR]

Update, some people are having problems with the .rar folder, and so here are the files individually, so you can download them at your leisure…

Units B1a/B1b Biology: Download PDF

Units C1a/C1b Chemistry: Download PDF

Units P1a/P1b Physics: Download PDF

Hope these help and work better for you!

Once again, it’s that time of year…

So I just would like to say a massive good luck and hope all goes/has gone well.

Please let me know how you feel exams have been going, and I hope this site has served you well in preparation!

Dan!

Thanks to all who use GCSE Revision 101. Here’s a summary of how we did this year!

The year in review

The stats helper monkeys at WordPress.com mulled over how this blog did in 2010, and here’s a high level summary of its overall blog health:

The Blog-Health-o-Meter™ reads Wow. GCSE Revision 101 was in the top 10% of blogs at WordPress.com due to its success this year!

Crunchy numbers

The Louvre Museum has 8.5 million visitors per year. This blog was viewed about 130,000 times in 2010. If it were an exhibit at The Louvre Museum, it would take 6 days for that many people to see it.

In 2010, there were 5 new posts, growing the total archive of this blog to 9 posts. There were 16 pictures uploaded, taking up a total of 4mb. That’s about a picture per month.

The busiest day of the year was May 27th with 5,215 views. The most popular post that day was Physics P3.

Where did they come from?

The top referring sites in 2010 were facebook.com, getrevising.co.uk, thestudentroom.co.uk, google.co.uk, and mail.live.com.

Some visitors came searching, mostly for gcse revision 101, revision 101, villi, chemistry c3 revision, and b2 c2 p2 revision.

Edit: I love how “villi” was one of the top search terms that led people to the site from search engines!

And a side note from me…

When I started this site, it was meant to just be a little site. I thought, since I did all my revision, why not upload all my notes onto the computer so that others (from my school) could use them. Never did I expect in a year’s time to have 500 visitors. And at that time I didn’t realise 500 was just the beginning. With around 200,000 unique visitors in just under three years, I am very thankful to all who have used it, and with around 500 comments saying how great the site is, it still makes me happy even though I’m doing my A2 levels as we speak.

Keep using the site, thanks again, keep commenting, rating and telling your friends about GCSE Revision 101! Happy New Year, and may 2011 be the best year yet for the site!

Welcome to GCSE Revision 101!

This is literally the best revision site in the whole world! Or at least, in my opinion. Feel free to browse the various revision notes available for AQA Biology, AQA Chemistry, AQA Physics, AQA A Maths, AQA English B, AQA English Literature B and OCR A Business Studies, most of which are also available to download!

Comment if you like the site, have any questions or whatnot, or if you just want to leave a suggestion for the site. I try and keep it up to date, even though I’ve now started to plough on through my A2 courses. On that note, try my AS Revision sites also if you want some top-notch revision for AS Biology, AS Business Studies, AS Psychology or AS Spanish!

Enjoy the site and let me know what you think! In the 2 years the site’s been going it has attracted 200,000 unique visitors and the hits keep increasing by the day! Let’s spread the word about GCSE Revision 101!

Oh, and finally, if you like the site, become a fan on Facebook HERE

Good luck!

(Note: This website has not been officially endorsed by AQA, OCR or Edexcel. This should not be used as a sole revision guide, other sources should be used for revision as well. Nevertheless, however, it is a bloody brilliant site!)

GCSE English Notes

Don’t get excited: I don’t have that many. These were just some notes I started but never finished. But hey, half-complete notes are better than no notes, right?

Download: Best Words Analysis
This is a PDF document with some analysis on the Best Words poems. I didn’t get through all of them, but like I say it’s better than nought. Enjoy… whatever there is of it…

Download: Best Words Collection
This is just the collection of Best Words poem. I lost my book, hence I had to find them all on the internet and make a little booklet of my own. Now available for you to print off and annotate!

Download: Best Words Thematic Links
Again, unfinished, but has some stuff in there which might come in useful when making comparisons in the exam (if I remember correctly, you have to compare the poems?) and it might be good revision for you lot to fill in the gaps yourselves

Download: Jekyll & Hyde – Chapter Chart
To anyone studying the Jekyll & Hyde book for their coursework/exam. A little chapter chart I made. You don’t even have to read the book if you’ve got this to rely on…

Download: Romeo & Juliet – Chapter Chart
And the same thing for Romeo & Juliet. A little less in-depth, nice to revise from

I know it’s not much, but it’s something! Hope you guys find it useful, and remember to tell your friends about the site and leave comments!

Once again, good luck in the exams!

Well, it’s coming up to that time again…

I may be doing my AS Levels over the next month or so, but I am still popping back to this site every so often to find that its success only ever increases. I am proud it has such a wide fan base, and that so many people use it to aid their revision.

Once again, I mention become a Facebook fan by clicking HERE

But probably more importantly, might I wish everyone taking their GCSEs very soon,

Good luck.
