for eng lit, you should revise characters and their relationships, settings and themes. after, try to look at a few past papers qsts and plan how you would answer it.

Make a timetable for every day now until mocks and what you are going to revise.

Complete past paper questions for English and get your teacher to mark them and get feedback if possible. If not, just get someone who is good at english to look at your answers and critique them. Think about how you will structure each question and work on timings, because that is by far the worst part of English exams, they never give you enough time. (I wish I would have done this, I would have got basically all 9s if I did)

For sciences and maths just do pps, and if you have AQA for any science or mathsy subject USE THE SPECIFICATION TO HELP YOU REVISE. AQA specifications are amazing, they're basically just a revision checklist.

Good luck!
