How exam prep works

Exams reward a narrow set of skills done under time pressure. Most students lose marks in the same three or four places, and a term of general tutoring never quite gets to them. This is tutoring aimed straight at the paper.

  1. We start from a real past paper

    The first session is a paper under exam conditions. It shows exactly which question types cost marks and where the timing breaks down.

  2. A plan built around the specification

    Every board publishes what it will test. Lessons follow that list in order of how many marks it is worth and how shaky it currently is.

  3. Practice between lessons, free

    The adaptive maths practice platform is included with any account — it keeps the mechanical skills sharp so lesson time goes on method and exam technique.

Lessons are priced by level, and every plan starts with a free 30-minute assessment. See pricing

Common questions

Which exams and curricula do you cover?

UK: GCSE and A-Level maths, physics and chemistry, and A-Level Further Maths. USA: SAT, ACT, and the AP exams in Precalculus, Calculus AB and BC, Statistics, Physics 1, 2 and C, and Chemistry. IB Diploma: Mathematics Analysis and Approaches and Applications and Interpretation, Physics and Chemistry. Portugal: the Exame Nacional in Matemática A, MACS, Física e Química A and Geometria Descritiva A. Each has its own page above.

How late is too late to start?

Six weeks out, a focused plan can still move a grade — it just has to be ruthless about which topics get time. The assessment is where we decide that.
