From CBBA to A*A*AA

Jaipal Uppal, an undergraduate physics student at The University of Birmingham, used StudyStash to achieve brilliant A-level results. For A-levels & UCAS exams, he studied Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Chemistry as well as an EPQ. StudyStash helped him organise his revision, saving time and genuinely without the help, he wouldn't have gotten the A-levels he did!

About Jaipal

I'm Jaipal, an undergraduate physics student at The University of Birmingham and used StudyStash to achieve brilliant A-level results. For A-levels & my UCAS exams I studied Maths, Furthermaths, Physics and Chemistry as well as an EPQ. StudyStash helped me so much organise my revision saving me time and genuinely without your help I wouldn't have gotten the A-levels I did!

Overcoming Challenges

My most difficult subject was chemistry, as my strength lie more with problem solving as opposed to memorising content and chem was my most content heavy topic. So by using the features on StudyStash - mainly the flash cards with the AI spaced repetition feature - I was able to reinforce and retain a lot more information than before.

Organisation and Study Methods

I'd say I was fairly organised before but StudyStash enabled me to do a lot all on one platform- make folders and store notes with linked flash cards. It was a lot easier to find things than my system of just shoving physical flash cards in all of my draws and they would often get lost.

Managing Stress and Support

I think exams was one of the most stressful times of my personal life which made my temperament with academics and revision a lot thinner. The day before one of my chemistry exams I'd been using my StudyStash flashcards until the I had an issue with my school account. I was ready to crack and I definitely needed sleep, but I sent a message through on the website illustrating my devastation and the their team had sorted it literally within half an hour. Feeling like the people behind the site actually wanted me to do well in my exams was one of the things that kept me motivated through the last week of A-levels.

Subject Excellence

I think StudyStash really helped with my chemistry as there were just so many recall questions.

Favorite Features

I really liked keeping a streak on StudyStash - it was just fun and the flash cards were great as they reminded me to relook at some that I wasn't sure of. And the software managed to separate the flash cards into groups of how well I knew them.

100% I have and will continue to do so!
