hi! i did my gcses last year, so here's what i would do if i was in your position.

i would search something like this on youtube: '[exam board] maths gcse paper 2 predicted topics'. make sure that you're watching a video that is for your exam board though

now, these videos give you an example question. i would suggest that you practice these questions before the answer is revealed- if you get a question wrong, write down the topic on a piece of paper.

for example, completing the square. i would do this for the rest of the video

next, find worksheets on the topics that you've gotten wrong & complete them

to get a high grade, i would suggest that you should complete varied questions. of course, if you've gotten one of the simpler ones wrong, try some similar ones

on the day of the exam, wake up early- you can read through any resources, memorise equations, or work through more problems, etc

for my exams, we had the board edexcel. i used this channel & this site for questions.if you do higher tier, it is easier to get higher grades. here, you can see the grade boundaries of the previous years- make sure to change exam board, etc.

Review your weakest topics using questions from maths genie. It’s more important to prioritize your weakest topics than past papers where you may just be practicing your strong topics again and again.
