How many hours per week should I study for GCSE maths?

Hi Elliot, it depends on how confident you are on each topic. If you are doing well, 1-2 hours a week will be fine. If you are struggling on some topics, I would do 3-4 hours a week of 'revision'

Study Maths,5 hours in a week

I think you should study at your home everyday it's not important how much hour. The important thing is to study every day. At least an hour or half and hour will work for you.

It is not usually about the amount of time you spend studying per week, but it is about the quality of study you produce. It's no good to study 3 hours a week, if you don't learn and understand anything. Some students only require the hour, others require 3 hours a week. Studying every day and understand the concept of the maths topic whilst completing practice questions is what will help you achieve the best!!!

6 hours weekly study should get you a good grade

Ideally 10 hours,but an intense 6 hours is still very good.

No more than 6 if you are not taking maths at six form or college.

In my manner 18 hours you should learn

I would suggest you go with 2 hours everyday

Planning according to the time available before examination and understanding level of the student will always be fruitful . If student plans to start immediately when academic year starts., he can plan 3-5 hours per week. If you have 6 months duration before exam, 5-7 hours per week will be really helpful. If planning lessons just before 3 months of your examination then I would suggest to plan 7-10 hours per week for better results.

I would say do 3hr per week for maths , go over difficult questions and U will be fine

Dear Elliot, Thanks for your question. Even if you're confident with your NUMBERS then, I would recommend you to browse through what you already know every day if possible. Don't try to jump up the ladder in one go and take one step each time. I don't know how confident you're but, 5 hours/weeks is enough at this stage including browsing through what you already know. Best of luck.

Use 2 hours everyday.

I’d say at least 1 hour a day minimum, even just doing a little quiz on days that you can’t be bothered

Around hours a week seems good

You will get a lot of problem if you manage it with this way, you should get a certain number of problems at a certain subject each day and each week.

1 hour and 30 minutes it's ok

In a day at least 1-2 and half hour

Do two hours a week for now and try balance it out with papers!

5 hours Books. CGP

Hii Elliott!! I think it's not about time only about your the quality of your study time.Which means if you study only for 1hour in a day it's enough if you utilise that one hour properly. Some tips: * First you analyse your current grade level then take action according to it. * Also you need to understand your week areas in every topics first and try to learn it properly. * Must work out the previous year questions

A good rule of thumb for GCSE Maths is to aim for around 3-5 hours per week. This includes time spent on homework, revision, and practice papers. Consistency is key, so spread out your study sessions to avoid cramming. Finding a balance with other subjects and activities is crucial for keeping your study routine effective and manageable.

When I did GCSE Maths, I studied for 1 hour a day for 3-5 days a week depending on how I felt. It’s not about how long you study for but it’s how you use that time to revise. Some weeks I only did 2 hours and focused on my other subjects.

2 hours but chunk it into either 1 hour then rest then another, or 4 30 minute slots

If you can be efficient in your revision you could probably get by on 1-2 hours of revision as long as you do the right things during this time

Maths is all about PPP that means Pen Paper and Practice it’s depend on you .

By Christmas, you would have completed the GCSE spec if not before. Maths is about practice. The earliest you start practising exam papers the better. Thus you will know your weakness and strengths. Doing papers will boost your confidence and aim the best possible results when you do your mocks. In terms of papers, at least 2 papers per week:Calc and Non Calc, definitely time yourself. This is in addition to homework and working on one or two other topics a week. All the best.

A well-known saying "Practice makes man perfect". So math needs practice whether to give 1 hour or more, just to keep practicing in a day. And if need to revise, then give an extra hour(s) within a week schedule.

From my experience, I recommend at least 4-5 hours per week of consistent study and an additional 2-3 hours of study closer to exams.

At least an hour a day. Simple.

5 hours are enough to understand the concepts

Contributing at least one hour a day would be of great help if you want to get a good grade. Since practice makes your maths skills perfect

7 hours per week will be fruitful

Maths needs practice if your ok with concepts then give 1 hpur daily its enough otherwise have strong grip on concept first

Maths needs practice if your ok with concepts then give 1 hpur daily its enough otherwise have strong grip on concept first

Maths is a subject that you can only really revise by practising questions. I would do maths for about 30mins a day when your exams are getting close to keep your mind sharp but while also not boring yourself with revising hours of maths at one time.

Hi Elliit You should test yourself for understanding of problems. Make sure you are able to do all the questions in each section. I would recommend using this way to guide your studying rather than by time. Testing yourself and checking if your answers are correct is the best way to study for Mathematics. Best of luck!

Early preparations are key to getting good grades. However, the quality of work done in those hours is more important. Depending on your strength in maths, 3 hours won't be a bad idea.

The recommended study time for GCSE Maths can vary depending on individual circumstances, such as your current understanding of the material and your target grade. However, a general guideline is to aim for about 5 to 10 hours of study per week. This should include a mix of reviewing class notes, practicing past exam papers, and working on areas where you feel less confident. Consistency is key, so try to spread your study sessions throughout the week rather than cramming before exams

Okay, if you want to pass and get a good grade, 5 hrs in a week is recommendable. Effort is directly congruent to success

Normally it takes 6 months to prepare to pass the GCSE maths, but some people use 3 months, however when you study more it is better so 6 months should be your goal/aim. Also, 28 to 35 hours of study per week with short breaks in between is good.

This question just base on your ability in mathematics, normally 2 hour per week may enough

1 to 2 hours weekly

All depends on your weak and string points, can vary throughout term. I'd opt for min 1 jour and adding when needed or weal area

Between 3 and 4 and a half hours.

3-5 hours per week and before exams you should study at least 7-8 hours per week.

Why are you asking this question to others? Nobody can give you the right answer to this question as everybody has it's own capacity. You are the best judge for judging your requirements. Calculate how many chapters are there and in each chapter how much theory, examples and questions are there, then make an estimate of time for one complete chapter. Multiply the number of chapters to the estimated time for one chapter. This way you will get total numbers of hours required to complete the whole book. Then calculate number of days left for your preparation. Divide the number of hours by the number of days left you will get the number of hours required to study per day. Best of luck.

Well I would say 1 hour everyday would be an ideal strategy

Hi Elliot, Maths should be like an appetizer, I used to do 10 math questions (from different topics) every morning (1 hr) before embarking on the rest of the other subjects in my personal timetable. This helps jog the brain and improves your speed and accuracy as well. So to answer your question, 1 hr a day is sufficient to put you in a position where you can tackle any math question.

Begin from 30minutes to an hours per week to avoid being overwhelmed. Increase your duration as you become more comfortable. Break your study hours so be more manageable.Studying with friends too will be a good option for you.

Dear Elliot, your study should be a continuous process irrespective of the subject or course. It doesn’t really matter the hours but just make sure you flow and understand the process to boost your level of confidence.

3-5 hours per week for maths

You must practice an hour everyday to get a good grade

I’d suggest studying 4-6 hours a week.

I don’t think hours really matter, just as long as you feel confident with each topic

I would recommend to gradually build it up through out year 11 as you don't want to burn out. Make sure you're confident with each topic after you've been taught them and review if you're not and aim for about 1 past paper a week (going over any questions you dont get).

Coming from an A* GCSE Math Achiever: 1-2 hours a week will be enough, AS LONG AS YOU ARE FOCUSED in that full duration of time. (no phones/distractions). 1-2 hours of revision a week is FAR MORE VALUABLE than say for e.g. 3 hours of ineffective revision every day. In that case, you'll think you have been more productive, but not really! Hope this helps! :)

First develop a love for the subjects. It is only how you understand the concepts underlying every lesson. Start writing ✍️ key points in each topic in every subject. This will help you in Revision. Develop a habit to write ✍️ half a page of handwriting in any subject daily. It will not only enhance your writing speed but also drive in essential topics required for the exam. Avoid wasting time. Exam is the focus. Listening to light music and playing outdoor games will make you feel happy and healthy to learn more.

You should do a focused study 2 hours per day.Unfocused several hours are useless.

For your GCSE, I'd say 3-4 hours a week should suffice.

According to your syllabus set your time table and set daily goals

You could study for about 6 hours a week.

Study 3- 4 hours a day solely on maths. Anything over it is tedius and just straining

Hi Elliot, You should stay true to yourself, how much work do you actually get done in 1 hour and how confident do you feel with the topic? Take 3-4 hours as an average, and make sure you cover all the topics for your exams. Good luck!

I think 14 hours per week as 2 hours per day so that your can improve and learn better. Practice more and more because maths require practice and hardwork.

You ought to study at least 1 hour 30 minutes a day so that you are always ahead of the contents that you are covering.

Hi Elliot, first of all consistency and productivity matters you study 3 hours or 6 hours it should be 100% utilization of time. I would recommend you study everyday at least 1 or 1.5 hour, revise your lessons practice them, and continuing this practice pick out your weak topics and start devoting more time to it. It will improve your clarity of concept and fetch you good grade. Be consistent in your studies.

Dear Elliot, How confident are you in your Mathematics? This might be a great place to start from. It is never too early to start.

2 hours at this stage is enough. Just prioritise quality over quantity!
