Im currently in year 13 studying biology chemistry and sociology, I barely have any notes (only a bit of what i write in class) is it worth writing up my notes now for alevels or not? When revising for tests i just read the revision guide the day before and i do fine, i get B’s but that wont obviously work for the real exam. Any revision tips will also be great!

Making notes is a form of revision.
They are customised to you.
I would see what you get from mocks and practice exams.
Even a revision set umo can help you revise more effectively, but at this late stage you might have to do without because they take a lot of time to make. Just make sure your revision books are good. Its no good by the time of your exam to be just finishing making notes without any time to read them or having practised exams.

Not everyone needs notes, so if you feel your revision books are enough do that.

Personally I disagree with the it's quite late to be making them comment from the above.
Personally notes was one of my ways of revising and I started around now and got them done in time. Additionally mine were handwritten and I spent time deciding what colour to write them in so if you were typing them I reckon you could quite easily get them done, but it's up to you really

The ideal position would be to have your normal notes up to date {the place I would prefer to be in] , except the OP has none.
Much better to eb turning the final portion of your revision onto condensing, filling in gaps and exam practice.
The OP will find out whether they would have benefited from having decent notes or not.

There are two sets of notes.Normal notes, which should be made from the start and revision notes, which are a more condensed set of notes created from your master notes.
