This is an 8-week plan that assumes 45 minutes per weekday and a 2-hour past-paper session each Saturday.
Before week 1: find your starting point
Write one recent Paper 1 and one Paper 2 under timed conditions and total your marks per topic. Use those totals to adjust the plan below: give extra days to the topics where you scored lowest, and fewer to those you already do well.
Weeks 1–2: Algebra & Sequences
- Solve 20 algebra equations, 20 inequalities
- Master arithmetic and geometric series
- Saturday: write one full Paper 1 from 2 years ago
Weeks 3–4: Functions & Calculus
- Sketch 10 parabolas, 5 hyperbolas, 5 exponentials with full labelling
- Differentiate 30 cubics; do 5 optimisation problems
- Saturday: write one full Paper 1 from last year
Weeks 5–6: Trig & Analytical Geometry
- Identities & reduction formulae drills
- 10 3D trig problems
- Saturday: write one full Paper 2
Weeks 7–8: Statistics, Probability & Mixed Revision
- Two full past papers under exam conditions
- Re-attempt every question you scored below 60% on
A 45-minute weekday session
- 10 minutes: recall the week's formulas and theorems from memory, then check them.
- 30 minutes: past-paper questions on the week's topic, marked with the memo.
- 5 minutes: log every mistake with its topic and why you lost the marks.
Track your progress
Keep a mistakes log: the question, the topic and why you lost marks. Read it every Saturday before your past paper. When a topic stops appearing in the log, move your time to the next weakest one.
If you have less than 8 weeks
- 4 weeks: one week each for algebra and functions, calculus, trigonometry, and geometry, with a past paper every Saturday.
- 2 weeks: a full paper every second day, and the days in between on the questions you got wrong.
- Whatever the length of your plan, keep the weekly timed paper: it is what shows your progress.
