Help i need to pass my dt gcse

I started a grammer school halfway through yr9 however my teacher for DT never teaches theory. I recently did a test on theory and only got 57% which is a grade 5. I am good at practical activities but only because we (the students) can help each other along the way. Theory is worth half my GCSE. Does anyone know any good revision websites that i can use in order to improve my DT grade?

Hi, I got an 8 at GCSE this year and my teacher taught maybe 3 lessons of theory and that's it. We were given mini textbooks with all the theory information and I converted that into flashcards (I never actually finished making flashcards from the book because i'm lazy). I also watched youtube videos on the day and night before of an exam that went through topics that I usually struggle with. I did my flashcards every so often and did a lot of past papers too. I didn't do a ton of revision because I already was getting good grades in my theory exam and I was also told that I got above a grade 7 in my coursework by my teacher (which obviously she's not supposed to do). Basically all you need is to do active revision and you'll be okay. A website my teacher recommended was good too and you might find it helpful.
