Any tips?

I would highly appreciate help or advice to get really good grades in the New 9 1 gcse subjects! I am taking: Triple science, geogrpahy,history,French and the other core subjects in higher tier.
I thought I was doing well untillcmy last mock results that I was devastated at, I have another set of mocks in a week. anyone please help on what I should do and how I should revise as something is not going quite right. Also, I would want to do a level biology so I would need a 7 at gcse, any tips?
All comments appreciated!

Do as many past papers as you can. Exam technique is always a big factor towards success so fit this in whenever you can. Also try and do these past papers under exam conditions and time them so you get used to allocating a certain amount of time to specific types of questions. For biology learn as many key words as possible and have a look at some mark schemes for past papers that you have to look at all of the development you need in your answer. Mark schemes are always a good idea to perfect your exam technique and see how much or how little detail you need to go into, but make sure it’s your exam board!! Hope this helps.
