Freesciencelessons on YouTube! He has whole playlists for each science and each paper, really good resource. What I did was watch a video, note down the important things, then just keep going over them. Read it ten times, say it ten times. I managed to get a 9 in chem, a 9 in bio and an 8 in physics purely from him. I’d also recommend past papers, little and often such as just doing 1 question (which usually entails 4/5 smaller questions) each night. Hope this helps! Best of luck, you’re gonna do great .

I got my mocks around November time if I do that now do you think I can achieve good grades?

I would say you will definitely see improvements. Don’t focus too much on your mock grade, work super hard for your mocks but remember you have 5 months after to keep revising too, your mock grade won’t reflect your gcse grade precisely. For example, I got a 7 in my December English language mock and a 9 in the GCSE. Let me know if you need any more advice. I have a thread where I can give out GCSE advice too from my own experience, best of luck to you!

yess defoo.. as some who was in fountain in yr 10 and moved to higher in yr 11...I got 6-6 in my yr 11 mocks.....the second mock results improved and I ended up getting 8-8. sooo defoo u can as you got time and as the other person said past paper is key.a and the cpg revision guide is good ( buy second hand as it is really cheap if u want to ).....I personally procastinated alottt soo I didn't do tons of past paper for science but did for some other subs lol ) but wht I did was watching like walk through of past paper and familiarised myself with the mark scheme because if you didn't mention one word the answer, then you might not get the mark as the mark schemes are abit strict...but nothing to worry about.
