I have found R.A.G to help and follow it up with topic questions though this is later stage. For content I find A3 mind maps useful just to have everything written down but your best bet for learning content is probably reviewing flashcards and having someone test you

Would you be able to explain stuff from specifically the edexcel spec ?

Hi. There is lots you can just learn (the 7 mechanisms in the spec, all the definitions in thermo, etc), I'd also recommend making a flow diagram of all the organic reactions (draw your own rather than just download one as it will really help you to see links between molecules. It will take a few hours, but really worth doing. Then for the calculations questions, just find loads of questions to practice. Happy to answer any specific questions you have

I think that is the flashcard making tool? Whatever works for you works for you; some people write things out again and again, others make flashcards. You can use a LLM to help you think of different ways to remember things, as it will suggest ideas you haven't though of. Notebook LM is good for definitions as it will make text into a podcast that you can listen to. It just takes lots of effortful thinking; there are no short cuts.
