Learning concepts takes loads of repetition - since Chemistry is both in the category of heavy memorisation and arithmetics, try to stay on top of work (don’t slack off and push given work to be done the next day). Moreover, I’d advise to put a lot of effort in your topic tests; As these small tests are like milestones/deadlines for you to study a specific topic.
Study advise:
•
Gather revision resources
•
Try different methods of studying (e.g. flash cards, mindmaps note-taking, etc…) - as long as it helps you memorise things
•
Choose the best method and use it in heavy repetition
•
Input revision resources in the best method of studying
•
When you’ve gone through all the content, work on practice papers
