Your answers arent detailed and focused enough on what they want. Look at mark schemes and examiners reports then see where the marks that get you from a 7 to a 9 are. Looking at some model answers may also help.
Thanks bud im gonna try that out

Well my GCSE grades aren't the best check them out. Anyway I used Seneca for A level and it is terrible - for gentle revision I think it's okay but don't spend the majority of your time on there. When you do mock papers- do one question at a time and then mark it - you will realise your mistakes and gap in your knowledge . For English I watched youtube videos and got a 9 - it may not help for you but experiment - maybe you need to change up your revision techniques . Goodluck!

If I had a 9 in science I'd be happy but I got a 8/7 . All I did for aqa English was revise from Mr Salle's teaches English or something like that. He's on yt you should check him out.
