Drayton, they do questions from CIE IGCSE and O Level, Ed Excel IGCSE, Questions from Singapore, Australia, South Korea and Canada. It's never for fun. It's to Drive then on ahead. What's your point.

I suspect it's an inverse relationship!

DD2's example would say yes (incredibly beautiful revision notes with drawings for every subject regardless yielded 11A*, in Y10).

goodbye - ah, but thats revision notes. The question was about the beauteousness of the timetable. Effort put into the former is valuable for crystallising understanding and retention; the latter is mere procrastination.

My timetable refusenik is making some very nice notes for her physics A-level, even of the parts she knows perfectly well so she can chuck them at panicking friends on the bus if needbe.
