Remember you will be given the IGCSE formulae sheet...


Be aware of what is and is not on the formulae sheet.

Do not forget that you could also use the Dr Frost course and the MyMaths and Corbettmaths website to look at online
video explanations and example, as well as the online worksheets/homeworks, but choose the topics carefully.

Past revision sheets and two practice papers have also been made available in the L5 Mathematics Whole Year Group
Google Classroom.
