dropped 3 grades in compsci?!!?

i’m really devastated, i was getting 7s in computer science (aqa) and suddenly dropped down to a 4/5. i really don’t know what to do, i want to do this in 6th form or college but my grade is too low, theres no past papers for me either. can someone help me with revision tips + websites.. i really want to jump back to a 7+, thank you :smile:

exam board websites usually have past papers you can practise and there is usually a CGP revision guide that you could use. It is important you also actually know the content for the exam, but also know how to approach exam questions.

if the content and the style of question is the same, maybe, but it would be better to use ones from your exam board
