Learning and Revision Advise

Hello Everyone, So, we are back at school and the pressure is on for Highers already.
I would like advise from folks who have done Biology and Chemistry and achieved A’s what was their revision & learning strategy.
Thanks :smile:

I got 3A*s predicted in Maths, Bio, and Chem (I'm going into Year 13 now) and basically initially I was on AAB until January, but after January I started revising for June mocks and did 20 hours of revision a week (I used the app Flora to count the hours, a lot of people who did well used Flora - it's free btw).

As soon as I got any homework, I'd do it straight away. If I was confused about anything (in lesson or in my revision) I would always wait for the opportunity to ask my teachers for help.

I used PhysicsandMathstutor for both notes and past paper questions and I did as many as I could.

A week or two before an important exam, I'd try and to most of the available past questions on topics I wasn't that good at.
