ocr history a level

heyy im currenly at a level b/c in history and i genuinely can't find a good and effective way to learn anything. Like when it comes to revision instead of doing past papers i just have to go through the entire textbook again bc i genuinely can't learn the content and actually maintain it. Do you have any tactics that could work well, especially because im a chronic procratinator but the stakes are actually getting high since ive been getting my dream offers but i dont know how i can take my grade up and properly achivee them.

also any advice for history coursework? i feel mines fine at the moment but my teacher keeps saying i need better source analysis and i cant figure out for the life of me what shes asking for, like what even is source analysis in history.

Have you tried any other methods? like watching shows that relate to the content you're studying
Also for the history coursework is the analysis towards primary or secondary source. For primary you have to find if the source is reliable through the provenance , whereas for secondary you use your knowledge to analyse if the argument is accurate or not you can also use primary sources to do this.
