Ultimate Homework/Revision Guide - V2!

[MKR&*42]

Mhm.

I decided to create a 'V2' for the 'Ultimate Homework Resource Guide' because the original (V1) was made in 2006 - and lots of websites have come around in 5 years :L Here's the changes that have been made;

- 23 links removed; Either due to being 'broken', un-useful or merged into the 'all subjects' category.
- 37 links added
- 7 new subjects; German, Welsh, Most Languages, Geography, British History, R.E/R.S/R.K & Business studies
- 2 subjects changed; Psychology was removed & Economics was merged into Business Studies
- I changed the thread title to "Ultimate Homework/Revision Guide" > Resource = Removed, Revision = Added

- Also, my apologies for the fact there's only 3 Geography links. I hated Geography, and didn't know many homework/revision sites for them. However, those 3 are still pretty useful and informative websites.

This revision guide is mainly intended for KS3/KS4 (GCSE) students - however, some of the sites offer information for AS & A Level students, so you're not left out!

So yeah - I also decided to make this because I've just done an English exam and I've got a Maths and German within the next 2 weeks. SO, here it is;

Great thread, Warren! Will probably be useful for me. Although, I'm not a massive fan of revising on the web all the time, I do prefer and find it easier to read from books.

Aww thanks Georgia bbes xox.

Idm revision online, it's definitely 100 x easier - however there's just so much info online and most of it you don't even need in your exam which is why I still have some revision books ;3

For things like Maths, Chemistry, Biology and Physics I'm going to have to buy more books as I find they give me more of the information I would need in the exam. If I'm doing homework or what not, I would be using these on line revision sites as they usually have more, complexed information that would be better for me to use.

I have not yet looked at these, although I've bookmarked the thread.

Will be very useful in a few weeks, thanks very much!
