SATS

I know they arn't really thaat important.. but..

I'm predicted straight 7s, but I need to revise abit on maths.. anyone got any helpful sights that can help me out? I'm in the higher set for maths and you're meant to get a level 8. I'm happy with a 7, but i'd like to try my best for an 8-

So do you know any useful sights for Maths Revision 6-8? :D

Last time I reviewed Sam Learning it was just drag and drop...

Unless it's changed it's not very good imo.

I never understood the logic behind SamLearning. We were strongly advised to use it during our GCSEs, but as it was drag and dropped, all the temptation was was to keep dragging and dropping until you got the answer right. You didn't really learn anything ;S

Go for the good old making notes.

OK, well it didn't help me. So your statement doesn't apply to everyone. It depends how you learn. I cannot learn of a computer, I have to write down notes over and over then learn them.

well you can't study for the sats. the only thing you can learn for taking sats are strategies, like skipping ones that take a long time and going back later. its a logic and reasoning test, it's not a knowledge test.

tests.
