Find answers to common questions about our mark scheme specific resources
Why should I use your resources rather than free ones made by students?
Free resources might sound like paradise to struggling students, right? The reality is different, our subject experts have analysed countless resources across every exam board (including those from TES, Etsy, Knowunity, Brainscape, and more) and found a recurring issue: while many provide a decent foundation, they are often riddled with major errors. These include content inaccuracies, incorrect or missing mark scheme terminology, and frequent spelling, punctuation, and grammar mistakes. This is understandable, as unlike StemUp, these resources don’t undergo the same rigorous, exam-standard checks by our staff, teachers, and former chief examiners.
Do you actually guarantee A*s?
Whilst no resource can ever guarantee A*s, we focus on ensuring that every student using our materials has the best possible chance of achieving them. Success ultimately depends on mindset and determination, as well as your individual understanding of subject material and how effectively you apply what you learn from our resources to exam questions. Our resources are designed to give you that advantage, through examiner-level mark scheme specific precision covering everything you need to learn for your exam
What if I have issues with downloading your resources?
StemUp has fulfilled over 20,000 orders, and in that time we’ve never encountered an issue that couldn’t be resolved. Our dedicated customer service team is available Monday to Saturday to support you with any queries — simply contact us via the chatbox
Why should I use your resources rather than doing it myself?
We get this question a lot, and the answer is simple. You could spend 100+ hours analysing over 6,000 pages of past paper questions, the specification, official exam board textbooks, and more than 10 different resources. On top of that, you’d still be missing access to exclusive unseen resources and expertly written notes from former chief examiners for each board. We’ve already done all of this work for you, so you can focus on learning and achieving the best results.

THE 3 STEP REVISION TECHNIQUE TO SECURE ALL 9S AND A*S
[REPEAT THE PROCESS FOR EVERY TOPIC / SUB TOPIC ON THE SPECIFICATION]
1. UNDERSTAND
First step to learning and mastering a topic is to make sure that you understand the underlying concepts within each topic, this makes the learning and applying of concepts much easier. For this we recommend watching a youtube video or using the offical exam board textbook (which we don't recommend using intensely beyond the understanding phase).
2. Learn
Once you understand the core concepts, the next step is to actively learn and memorise the content. This is where our mark scheme specific resources come in, they are designed with scientifically proven techniques like active recall and spaced repetition. Instead of passively re-reading, you’ll be actively enaging with exam-board specific mark scheme specific notes that strengthen memory retention and deepen your understanding.
3. apply
The final step is applying what you’ve learned, both from our resources and the understanding stage, to real exam scenarios. This involves practising with past paper questions and full exam papers. By doing so, you train yourself to think like an examiner, avoid common pitfalls, and develop the ability to apply your knowledge to application-based questions, which make up the majority of marks in A-level STEM exams.
