There is this AMAZING channel on Youtube (totally free) called Science with Hazel where she goes through all the science GCSEs (and possibly a levels i think?) so all of the exam boards, everything, and she tells you what you need to know and explains it in a really useful and easy way. Honestly saved my GCSEs (I did double science IGCSE and got two A's, which was like 2-3 grades up from my mocks in some cases). She also does a booklet that isn't very much money which I'd also recommend. But yeah, Science with Hazel. Really underrated channel. Absolutely brilliant.
Also you can go online and find the specification for any exam you're doing, just look for the exam board and subject etc, and it should come up with a list of stuff you need to know for the exam!
Good luck bro!

Hope I'm not too late! You need to know all the content for Paper 1 (double award content) and the triple award content for Paper 2.

So the triple award content includes:
- Solubility
- Mole calculations for substances and gases
- Metallic bonding
- Electrolysis
- Trends in Group 1 and 7
- Extraction and uses of metals
- Carrying out acid-alkali titrations
- Salt preparations
- Energy level diagrams
- Bond-making and bond-breaking
- Reaction profile diagrams
- Dynamic equilibrium and the position of equilibrium
- Alcohols
- Carboxylic acids
- Esters
- Polyesters
