Description

The course covers essential topics from AS-level chemistry (first year of A-levels). It fits all boards. If you are preparing to sit your AS-level chemistry test and need a quick brush up before the exam, or if you are an AS or A-level student who just started studying chemistry, this course is for you.Also, this course is the perfect fit for someone who is unsure about their chemistry foundations and needs to pass a school test or a university entrance test on the topics covered in this course.The course consists of a series of short video explanations and does not have useless information - I do value your precious test prep time! In the videos, I also show how to solve exam-style questions. In the course you will:Watch 95 short video lessons (10+ hours in total)Get access to stylish pre-filled pdf workbooks for every video. You can print them out or upload them on a tablet and fill them in while watching the videos. By the end of the course you will have your own AS-level chemistry book, customised for you, with your own notes. Solve 180+ multiple choice questionsAre you ready to start preparing for your AS-level chemistry test? :) Welcome!
