2021 ASSESSMENT MATERIALS. LOOKING FOR THE ANSWERS?
Academic Underdogs can provide mark schemes for many of the published 2021 assessment materials. We can also help create model answers for essay based subjects.
STEP 1
SIGN UP FOR A FREE CONSULTATION
Your initial call will be between 20 and 25 minutes. This is where we discuss your requirements, understand any constrains or challenges and find out exactly what you want to achieve. It’s an opportunity for you to get to know our team and us to get to know you. If you don’t want to move forward, that’s fine too. Worst case you would have received some free advice that will help you perform better!
*Note a parent/guardian must be present for this session. All sessions take place over zoom
STEP 2
CREATE YOUR REVISION STRATEGY
Exam boards have tried to make your life easier by publishing questions schools can use to create your exams. However, your teachers don’t have to use these questions. This has caused confusion because students know exactly what they will be examined on with some of their subjects, but have no idea what they will be tested on for others.
We take all of this information into account to provide you with a bespoke revision strategy tailored to your subjects.
STEP 3
THE 10-DAY CHALLENGE
Our tutors will revise with you for 50 minutes a day for 10 consecutive days. They will help you learn all the information to succeed in your 2021 assessments. After completing the challenge, some students leave us to self-study using our approach. Others move on to our flexible tuition option.
STEP 4
FLEXIBLE TUITION
Book in as many sessions as you want per week. No commitment period. Enjoy watching your grades improve, but importantly the feeling of satisfaction knowing that you can do it.

FAQ
WHAT SUBJECTS DO YOU TUTOR?
All sciences and humanities – iGCSE, GCSE and A-Level
WILL YOU CREATE A REVISION TIMETABLE FOR ME?
Yes. After signing up, this will be our first step. You will receive a bespoke revision strategy and timetable outlining:
1. What learning resources to revise from
2. How much revision you should do each day
3. Which revision technique to use for each subject
WHAT DO YOU DO DURING THE 10-DAY CHALLENGE?
Understand your daily routine and how you learn; call you at the end of each day to hold you accountable, test your knowledge & help with tricky topics; tweak your study technique until it’s perfect.
WHAT IS YOUR TRACK RECORD?
Over 83% of our students have gone on to achieve As-A*s or 8s-9s.
I ONLY HAVE A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME LEFT BEFORE EXAMS, CAN YOU STILL HELP ME ACHIEVE TOP GRADES?
This will depend on how much time you have left and the total amount of information you need to cover. If you have left most of your revision till that last minute, as a rule of thumb, you should take a ‘question lead’ approach to your revision. Book in a free consultation and we can help you with this approach.
CAN YOU HELP WITH PERSONAL STATEMENTS?
Yes. We offer a special bolt-on package that helps you create a well-written personal statement. If you come to us early enough, we can also help you secure work-relevant work experience and develop ‘hooks’ for your personal statement. These are unique projects you execute that make you stand out from other students.
For example, one of our students wanted to study Anthropology (the study of human artefacts) at university. We came up with a plan to find families that owned unique recipes which were passed down from previous generations (artefacts) and to publish these in a local newspaper. It worked! This experience added a fantastic ‘hook’ to the student’s personal statement. It demonstrated a geneuine interest in Athropology to the admissions tutor and helped her secure several offers.
WHY ACADEMIC UNDERDOGS?
Everything you need to achieve top grades is readily available in a textbook or online. So, instead of spending hours teaching and spoon feeding you information, we show you how to learn efficiently and only step in when you really need it. As a result, we can help you learn your entire syllabus within 4-5 months (2-3x faster than your school).
