How to study for 10 hours??

so I'm failing everything and my end of year exams are like in 2 and a half months.

im in year 12

I need AAA for my end of year exams, so I NEED to study 10 hours.

Now don't tell me how it's unhealthy and everything because at this point this is my only chance.

It's the holidays and I have all the time in the world but I can't concentrate for more than 4 hours.
even if I take a break!!

What can I do?

Have you tried working for 25 minutes, 5 minute break and then another 25 mins etc? Giving yourself a reward for working?

You are more likely to fail if you try to study 10 hours a day because it won't be effective and you will burn out.

Anything you want as long as it's not doing work.

You need to have self control and self discipline. If you don't then nobody can help you. You need to help yourself. Don't let yourself get distracted. If you do after a tiny 5 minute break then you can't blame anything or anyone except yourself. Be responsible for your own studying and your own grades.
