If you are aiming for an A*, its very important you really pay close attention to details in the OCR A textbook, don't make silly mistakes because OCR A chem grade boundaries are very high 90% this year, so revise like your trying to achieve 100% ( re-read questions and the answers you provide) this year at my sixth form only one person in our class achieved A* and they got 99%, so that is your best shot for ensuring you A* . For paper 3 I would suggest you do chemistry olympiad questions because if you can get through just some of those questions chemistry a level will be a breeze for you. Allery chemistry vids are useful as well. Good luck and dont worry because you have plenty of time to make those dreams a reality.
