maths study/revision help

hi i am in year 12 and i procrastinated and didn't pay attention in class or didn't do any work at home so far. All the content is piling up - so far, my teacher has finished pure maths and mechanics section(i will do further maths in yr13, so yr12 maths is 2x speed and feels so rushed. I want to catch up before it becomes a disaster, so i will spend my Christmas half term. Any advice on how can i start/resources?

If youve not put much effort in, its almost certain theyll have noticed.
Most teachers would want to try and help now rather than letting problems continue.

Are there any particular parts you feel like you understand less than others? Either through a gut feeling or that have been highlighted in a mock test?
I'd focus on targeting these areas first, work through that section of the textbook(if its Pearson then do the E/P questions since they test knowledge a lot better).

If you want to catch up then defo use the Christmas Break. My suggestion is to definitely do the questions from the textbook and use Dr Frost Maths along to help and guide you. There are really excellent youtubers like Zeeshan, haberdashers, Corbett maths e.t.c, that can help. Ideally, start from chapter 1 to build the foundation and work your way across all the way to the last and final chapter. If you have some things already in your fingertip and your confident with it, then leave it out and come back to it at the end. Prioritise the things which you don't know and work on that. Do the same with mechanics. Btw, its better when you do the chapters in order as most of the knowledge is carried forwards.
