Support GorillaPhysics

Honestly I'd be making these even if they never earned me a penny, but if you do feel that you'd like to say thank you and help support me to make more videos there are loads of ways that you can support me without costing you anything, or buy buying something at no extra cost to yourself.

The simplest way to support GorillaPhysics completely for free is to try a free trial of Amazon Kindle Unlimited and read my book for free!

Grab my new book to help you get ready for studying A Level Physics and to prepare for the exams:

You can read ”Prepare for the Challenge of A Level Physics” for free with a free trial of Kindle Unlimited: https://www.amazon.co.uk/kindle-dbs/hz/signup?tag=gorillaphys06-21  

Also, if you like GorillaPhysics and want to help me shape and expand my channel and resources, why not join my Patreon community and become part of Gary’s squad:

You can also support GorillaPhysics by starting a free trial of Student Amazon Prime!

This would have been so useful as a student to get next day delivery on so many essentials, but also for the music, and amazon video you get included in prime as well.  You might as well really!  And you say thanks to GorillaPhysics as I get a small bounty when you use my link!

IMHO you’ll want a general text book and an exam board specific guide.

General Text Books

My highest recommended textbook for GCSE Physics is “Physics for You”: http://amzn.to/2BI9ZVl   This is the latest edition for the new 9-1 GCSEs.  Although it is not exam board specific, the explanations are the best and it covers everything you need to know.  The questions are tailored to exam boards.
For A Level Physics, the best general textbook is “Advanced Physics for you”: http://amzn.to/2Cb8hfY   Again this is the latest edition, revised for the current 2015 A Levels and covers everything in every specification.  There are questions tailored to each exam board.

Exam Board Specific Guides

I do think that the CGP revision guides are the best ones, I think that sometimes the diagrams are a little childish, and it annoys me that they seem to underline every single word!  But they are thorough, are trusted by students and schools and are written in an accessible way.

Buy the packs that give you guide, exam practice and the practice exam papers:

I also really like the look of these grade 8-9 targeted revision books, definitely one for you if you are aiming for the top grades! https://amzn.to/2GEI3oQ 

They also make these nice ten minute test books, which are good if you struggle to fit in long periods of revision. https://amzn.to/2GBKBUR 

I also found this GCSE Physics Lab book going through required practicals for the AQA GCSE which I thought was a pretty good idea. https://amzn.to/2JpdzVv 

Lastly for GCSE if you struggle with handling the maths then this book might be the most useful: 9-1 Sciences Essential Maths Skills https://amzn.to/2GDB7IN

Calculator

Make sure you’ve got a decent calculator!  Not just the hand-me down from your older sibling!  You need the modern functionality and you need it not to die at an important time!  To be honest the Casios are the best, this is the standard one, the fx-85GT: https://amzn.to/2GG717h  and this is the flash one: https://amzn.to/2H1a61i (this is the one I use, it does loads of awesome things.)  Maybe you want a blue one or a pink one?  BLUE: https://amzn.to/2GCGqrH PINK: https://amzn.to/2uPXCV8
