Mind maps are always helpful. What I did last year was found out what type of learner I was so whether I was a visual, audio, or kinaesthetic learner. this allowed me to know what sort of revision would work for me and what would not. I ended up a visual learner so I draw pictures whether I can. if you get audio then read your notes out to yourself or record yourself reading your notes and then listen back to them. If you are kinaesthetic then any hands on work should help so making models if possible or acting out lit texts or something. hope this helps. :colondollar:
This is really helpful. Thank you so much!
I do History, Law and English Lit at A2. Tbh, it's gonna be a stretch to get your grades up. I find mocks to be somewhat accurate in summing up where you are.

If you haven't already try to do some past papers and pay close attention to mark schemes. It's not just about having knowledge of a subject, but also recognizing what a question is asking for and presenting it to examiners the way they want it.
