Hey! Finished mine a couple weeks ago, I’ve taken some time to take a rest while I get results back and it’s totally worth it - I would stay on top of homework but take a break, the holidays are coming up don’t forget!

What do you mean the time? The gcse exams start in may and finish in June and all the exam dates are available online.
If you want high grades, you should keep consistent revision schedules, and debatably even if you don't want high grades you should still be studying an hour a night and your results will show the benefits of doing so.
However, you don't have to study over the Christmas holidays as much, that would just be cruel!

You've got like 5 months so I'd relax until January. it depends on your grades and how confident you are.

I would say wait until you get your GCSE mocks feedback, then take some time off and then start preparing for your actual exam. Maybe when you start revising, use your mocks as a guidance on what topics you really need to go over and base your revision on that first. Then move on to the topics you know how to do and then do a lot of exam questions. When you completed those then past papers is the best thing to do, without doubt.
