doing past papers will really help you a lot cause theres always a pattern with the type of questions they ask and it will also help you understand what exactly the SQA is looking for in your answers. Hope this helps and goodluck !!

I would also Recommend Heriot Watt Scholar website. It’s great with lots of resources for Highers and leading up to exams you can join webinars with lots of tips on where to pick up extra marks. Worth looking at in addition to past papers. You’ve got this !!

For higher chemistry, you best option is to know the course spec thoroughly and master the calculation as nearly 60% of the papers are calculations. For maths the best thing is to practice and have methods for each type of question. Past papers for chem are also quite good as majority of the time they re use questions or they end up using the same type of question every year such as what free radicals are and the steps
