Any resources or pdfs to help with revision guys

Also, I've been trying to revise using flashcards and quizzes and then planning essays and doing timed practice to consolidate it, which has been really important for me, as I was worried about being able to put this into practice in the exam. I've also just been going back through topics every couple of days. My teacher gave me a bunch of planned essays (attached) so I will usually just plan mine and then compare the ideas to the ones I've been given to see stuff I didn't think of. I've also been using sources from the textbook and the revision guide and that's helped.

(Original post by comafax16)I've found "The Cold War" YT channel really useful in motivating me to revise because its much more interesting than reading the textbook, though it does go quite in-depth, it makes me more likely to remember at least a good level of detail and can be useful for stats etc.

Some of these include stuff not on advanced info?

Anyone have a stat for how expensive the arms race was in the 1960s/1970s?
