*Final Post*
It has been a long 3 years since the start of this page and sadly it ends today. When I first published the page on 17 October 2015, it was aimed to help a small classroom consisting of 25 students from 5 countries, never expecting it to reach 7500+ people in exactly 44 countries around the world. I can still remember our first celebration with 100 likes after 74 days since we started. Unforgettable!
Hope I helped you with any bit of information on this long journey. It was a pleasure writing each and every single post on the hope it did help you reach the A*.
The page will officially shut down today on 17 August 2018 (No more posts will be posted); however, I will keep it on the hope it might help others in the future. I can't believe it's the last time writing to you but it is what it is.
All the posts were purely prepared by me so sorry if there is any mistake or wrong info posted. Thanks to all the people and websites which helped me collect the required information and present it in an easy and presentable way for you to make the most of it.
Thank you for an amazing 3 years span, hoping to see you in a better future one day. 🙂

Kindly read this post till the end to get everything you need for the upcoming Chemistry-9701 paper 4:
1. As mentioned before, "Chemguide" is the best site to study the whole syllabus content in an easy and organised way. The ideal way to study for the exam is through the syllabus paper and that's exactly what chemguide did. They organized the topics as in the syllabus paper. So for example, if you want to study about the newly introduced topic "Entropy and Gibbs free energy", you will find it under "Chemical Energetic" section under parts 5.3 and 5.4 in the syllabus paper. So all you need to do is open chemical energetic at chemguide and press the links for 5.3 and 5.4 to get all the information you need.
Link:
https://www.chemguideforcie.co.uk/index.html
(Link to the syllabus paper: https://www.facebook.com/IGCSE2016/posts/1254423717942122)
2. In case you already know chem guide and wanted another source to study from check the following sites:
- https://revisionworld.com/a2-level-level-revision/chemistry-level-revision
- https://mathsmadeeasy.co.uk/a-level-chemistry-revision/
- https://www.s-cool.co.uk/a-level/chemistry
- https://studywise.co.uk/a-level-revision/chemistry/
These sites are similar to chemguide but what makes them outstanding is that they provide questions and answers for every aspect of the syllabus which will help you practice and gain confidence.
3. Check the following link for a collection of :
- Notes
- Revision Guides
- Summaries
- Examiner's Tips
- Standard Booklet (Checked Paper 4 by examiners)
- Classified past paper
- Full Definitions

4. Here are the classified tables for all the questions regarding each and every topic. So in case, you feel weak in one of the topic, these tables will save a lot of time.
(Group 2 questions are included under Chemical Energetics Topic)

Link: https://www.facebook.com/IGCSE2016/posts/1860046447379843
3. Here are classified tables for all the questions regarding each and every topic. So in case, you feel weak in one of the topic, these tables will save a lot of time.
(Note :
1. At the top left corner of every table, you will find the lesson number with respect to the syllabus paper. For example, if you are searching for amplifier question, it lies under topic 22 in the syllabus paper so you will find it under the heading (Indirecting Sensing).
2. Hall voltage questions have been included in the " Electromagnetic Induction" topic.)

8. And last but not least, in case you feel you didn't solve much past paper and feel lost, here is a collection of handmade notes by an A2 student in which he basically summarized the most important questions and formulas of the past paper. The only reason I included this is that I really did find many important past paper questions which will help you get free marks.

Thank you for helping us reach our biggest and (probably) final milestone on this page of 7000+ likes. It has been a very long trip started on 17 October 2015 where we started posting about IGCSE and nearly ending within a couple of months for our A-levels. If you were on this page since it was established you would find out that I posted exactly 100 posts regarding the full IGCSE syllabus while in the last year I posted 25 posts regarding the full AS-levels syllabus.
As for A-level I haven't been posting a lot for a while because am currently preparing one of the biggest collection of notes, revision guides, solved past papers, summaries and a lot more for the upcoming and final A2 session. They will be like the AS-level compilation posts from (post #114 to #124) of which are basically consisting of one link having everything you need so stay tuned!
Thank you again for this great support and special thanks to those who were with us from the start. Feel free to contact us if you have any problem finding a post.
We wouldn't have reached to where we are now if it wasn't for your great support. Thank you again for this amazing milestone :)
