A2 and some uni exams c:

Good luck, youll be fine. The main thing is just to revise effectively.
i remember when people would always be like DO PAST PAPERS. And i thought i literally didn't have time, but during my retake year, i have found it really is one of the most effective ways to revise. Learn from the markschemes if you are at a point where you think you cant learn everything

Totally agree, actually writing it how you would in the exam instead of copying up notes is the best way to put your knowledge into practice.
Revised for GCSE R.S in literally 2 hours for both my exams on separate occasions and got 100% on both papers, granted it's piss easy but from scratch I was pleasantly surprised since all I remember from lessons are debates and videos lol. Other exams I revised for 1-3 days before and got A*-B but, tried it for AS this year and tbh it's been a complete flop.
