If you're doing AQA, https://chemrevise.org/revision-guides/ is great.

Ayyyy I did OCR A, for OCR A/B you need to make sure you read all the little tid bits in the ocr a/b textbook for chemistry because in my exam little bits were popping up in the questions, things you wouldn’t have thought much about until now that it’s in your exam. To ensure you can nail the problem solving needed I suggest doing chemistry Olympiad questions as well because it really helped me and my paper 3 performance. Other than that make sure you also do EVERY PAST PAPER on pmt for it. Good Luck
