I'm currently revising biology using the CGP revision guide but I find it too overwhelming to use. Anyone know how I should make my notes using it?

CGP is good, I just summarised notes into mind maps! If you're on AQA then I cannot recommend mygcsescience.com enough, B1 is free and although you have to pay for B2 and B3, it's beyond worth it!
This is in the GCSE forum.

do this for every page
when you finish go back to more complex pages and do a colourful a4 page on them... diagrams/colours etc
get the exam papers out and do them open book; this means with your notes out
keep coming back to your notes/ the revision guide and you will build confidence every day
the revision guid is there to help you, dont be afraid of it

Have you tried making notes from videos instead? These might be helpful:

Use the syllabus. Type in biology syllabus gcse AQA. The revision guides are very helpful, but sometimes include too much info, whereas the syllabus is exactly what you need to know. AQA can't ask you a question if it isn't on there.

If one page is particularly hard you may need to do some kind of wider research - maybe from a main textbook. BBC bitesize was quite helpful for me also
Good luck!

For maths in particular Khanacademy and PatrickJMT were good
Also, I just typed into youtube 'GCSE maths' and there are full worked exam paper for Edexcel as the top result - this would be perfect
BBC bitesize is also good

From my experience this worked well, along with doing textbook exercises, exam practice, looking at mark schemes (I got an A* at GCSE and A-level)

Any ideas how I should approach graph questions on science papers? Have you heard of percentage quartile?
