What I am doing at the moment is going through past papers on Maths Genie and doing as many as I can. They have the videos there as well which I find very helpful for those harder questions.
Best luck.

Maths genie LoL what i do is just look at the solutions but they tend to merge 2 grade high grade questions into 1. The questions for grade 8 and 9 are easy compared to what they actually give in the test :confused:

Do as many past papers of your examboard. If you feel that you don't understand a topic, refer back to a video.
