Great GCSE revision apps or websites ideas pls

Hi, DD is in Year 10 and is looking for extra revision help , she already has text and revision books but is looking for apps or websites that also give you practice questions and practice tests that get marked rather than refer you to a mark scheme to check yourself. We have been looking at Save my exams, atom (but atom does not have all the history content of her exam board), what did you find helpful?

None of the AI markers do a very good job of marking to be honest ( Science teacher and we keep trialling various automark options) Sorry

I agree, I have not found any AI marking that comes close to what I would like for my subject (MFL). Also surely marking your work using the mark scheme will help you learn? It’s not much use finding out you got 35/50 if you don't know where and how you dropped marks.

You do need to be honest tho – not just "well that’s what I meant to say". If in doubt your teachers would help I would hope.

a fantastic site that asks science GCSE exam questions and has instant feedback - then develops it to explain how to get full marks. built by a science teacher and has had a lot of research into it!
£1.99 for unlimited questions - highly recommend! X

My kids really like anki app - they have it on iPhone and I guess it’s available on other platforms. They use it to make flashcards and then test themselves over and over - it monitors which ones you need more testing on and brings them up more etc. It’s v effective. You can upload lots of questions and answers to it, and score yourself on how well you’ve answered the question. Works well if you’re honest with yourself - perhaps good to use with a parent keeping score to start with to set the bar on “was that the actual full right answer?”

Mine has those science revision guides with pages of “question and answers” on each side of the page and you can take a photo and get them uploaded into the app somehow (not sure how but he managed it!). Great for checking which topics need more work. It’s easier to use them with some subjects.
