Thanks sm ur a literal godsend
physics: cognito. was a godsend for me and upped my grade by two
maths: MME or Mathswatch (payment required if ur school doesn't have it). you just need to familiarise urseld with the questions and always start with the easy ones, work yourself up to harder and harder ones until they don't seem so hard!

(cognito is also fab for bio and chem)

english: I'm not too sure how to suggest revising for it, depends if u struggle with language or literature?

don't waste ur time just watching videos n doing nothing - the work has to be active. also if ur just going into year 10 don't stress too hard, little & often work is great. depending on how u work id do half an hour each day ontop of HW. with maths, English, and the three sciences each having their own day and then the other two elect to other subjects depending on how you feel :smile:. this is what I did for gcses apart from assessment weeks which I changed based on what I got tested on
