Top Exam Tips for GCSE Chemistry

Essential strategies for chemistry exam success

1
Learn Chemical Equations

Know key chemical equations and how to balance them. Practice writing symbol equations—they're worth easy marks if you know them.

2
Master Moles Calculations

The mole concept is crucial. Practice using the triangle (mass = moles Ă— Mr) until it's automatic. Show all your working for method marks.

3
Know Your Required Practicals

15% of marks relate to practical work. Know the methods, safety precautions, variables, and how to evaluate experiments for all required practicals.

4
Use the Periodic Table

You're given a periodic table in the exam—use it! It contains atomic numbers, mass numbers, and helps with electron configuration questions.

5
Draw Clear Diagrams

For apparatus diagrams, ensure they're clearly labeled and scientifically accurate. Poor diagrams can lose marks even if your method is correct.

6
Learn Ion Tests

Memorize flame tests, ion precipitation tests, and gas tests. These are straightforward marks if you know them—make flashcards!
