Criminally underrated channel you're carrying me through my a levels

25 mins before Chem paper 2, thank you ❤️

I'm 35 years old so did my chemistry a level back in 2007. I was a flop at chemistry especially at A2 level and overall I got a D. Just couldn't get it into my head. I wish back then these kind of youtube videos existed, I'm pretty sure I would have gotten at least a B, if not an A and would have gotten into a top uni😅. Never mind.

This is perfect timing I was planning to revise this, thank you for great content as always

[LillieBuckley]

This video is greatly appreciated, I feel like I am starting to get it! Your side comments and tangents also kept me smiling which is a bonus :)

I'm going to commence self studying A levels in August for Chemistry at age 23, glad I found your channel just a few days ago. Peak content

[rakun]

Thank you so much, you have no idea how helpful this is. 🙏

hi! this is the kind of stuff you think you know it and then realise you don’t - even though it’s for AQA, as an edexcel student i found this video extremely helpful, thank you for this and I really appreciate you taking the time to copy out the exact question. Extremely helpful Keep it up, sir!

[jozimaps]

Thank you so much. This is the first time I am understanding this topic after about 7 months

[joshfc]

Please do some more NMR worked calculations seeing your thought process is good

[noeltesfaye]

really appreciate all the time you put into this

[dayagill]

watching this video before my paper 2. Thank you for these amazing vids

[soyadrink]

nah...I give up.. For six marks...I feel like I'm doing a whole mechanism with an unknown molecule.

[itachigonzales]

I find this topic so hard thanks for covering it

[pampoone]

Sir i really love the way you explain everything that needs to be explained in order to achieve the highest mark out of such questions that come up in the exam so can you do the questions on ocr exam board as you do for aqa plz I can’t find a teacher that do questions the way you do

[henryindia]

if intergration value is a ratio? how can you use it to determine molecular formula? if the given empirical formula is already a ratio

[superrnovaaa]

you are literally Godsent, if i become a rich pharmacist im willing to pay off your mortgages and get you a nice car

[neec]

why did i find u on the day of chem paper 2

[ShrumdayNightFootball]

Bloody hell paper 2 sm harder was getting 75%s in p1 but getting like 65%s in p2 and its TOMORROW 😖

[sabeelbari]

that data sheet is gonna be scribbled all over haha
