alevel biology and chemistry

hi, i wanted to ask if any one has any advice on how to go about bio and chem revision. for biology i got A on my mock as well as chem although. as in start of year 13. i am struggling with my bio because i simply dont know where i am going wrong with my bio reviison. i go through packs for bio and do exam questions. my teacher suggested that i should make note of most common exam question and make a mark scheme response for that. i am doing that. although in some questions the markscheme isnt what i think it would be. i write too much and miss the important bits. i miss key words. i was thinking whether i need to start making more notes. what is the ebst way to revise for bio as a year 13. also for chem i am struggling with homework. my teacher assign way to much homework and i cant even find time to revise for any other subject as well as chem it self and homework forces me to go over topics that i have planned for later on when they be most effective to start revising but i ahve to cahnge my study plan everyday because of chem. how should i go about it

With biology search out some YouTube videos which explain how you can gain maximum marks.You may be not giving enough A2 detail in your answers plus a six mark question requires 6 points.There are lots out there so spend a couple of evenings researching the ones which appeal to you.Re Chemistry can you team up with class mates and split the work.
