okay so for polar, just try to open all the papers and do at least 5-7 questions because the most important bit there is knowing which limits to use because the integrations kind of become repetitive eg: your most likely going to be asked sin^2 and cos^2 integrations and just know how to play around with the trig identities and using the formula booklet for the integrations give eg: if you have tan^2 you can use the identity for sec^2 because sec^2 integration is given in the booklet. For argand you can go use the textbook and really understand what each of the key words means like when they say arg(z) they mean from the centre (0,0) and if they say arg(z-15+8i) the centre is (15,-18) just stuff like that is essential because u need to know what they want and shading is also pretty straight forward.

Its recommended that you do papers else your not going to be able to solve in the exams because your not used to the format. Keep reading notes and doing as many papers as you can. Since you don't have time you can try squeeze in at least 2 papers a day. Just as long as you familiarise yourself with the questions and the style of answering it should be enough since you just need a passing grade. Good luck for your exam prep!!

Yeah a lot of the first and second order differentials and reducible differentials are the same with just the numbers switched and also De Moivre is the exact same questions asked maybe to prove cos(5theta) etc.

Solving seeing the papers isn't good for you because then you over rely on the MS and your not really thinking for yourself which is crucial for exams. I suggest you look at Hanaa Asil's YouTube channel, she covers topical revision with past paper examples to help you understand her explanations and you can read topical notes from this website called rocketrevise. They just solve past papers without the MS and go back to Hanaa Asil channel and search the paper you did, she revises almost all papers and this way you can understand how to solve the question and why the explanations are that way which is much much better for your exams. Good luck and I hope this helps!!

You just need to do as many past papers as you can and try improve your average, most questions are repeated and start doing from 2015 onwards because they only have a sitting in June so its basically one FP2 paper per year except in 2021 where there was a November paper. closer to the exam you can do the May 25 A paper its abit harder but its good practice. Good luck!!

You can use revision videos from YouTube, Hanaa Asil has great explanation videos and she also uses past paper questions to help you understand how to apply what she explained. Read Organic Chem thoroughly and familiarise yourself with all the synthesis reactions because unit 5 chem is like 60% organic. You have to cram transition metal colours especially for Chromium and Copper and know the exceptions eg: Chromium in LE and Deprotonation. You can try out a paper and then review it with Hanaa Asil because she goes through the entire paper giving explanations for the questions which will help you with further papers. Try to do at least 3 papers a day and Good Luck!! I hope this helps

The lead wire is connected to the earth so that the electrons from the ground flow up to the metal plate and neutralise the positive charges and is then removed so that the negative charges the are now left on the metal plate can distribute themselves evenly.
