Defo continue with exam questions, note down the questions/topic you got wrong and look at the mark scheme and use that to help you revise. if your still not understanding that topic/ getting those questions right go on youtube watch a vid make notes on a whiteboard/ paper then pause the vid rewrite what youve learnt without looking back. then correct or add any extra info you forgot. then go back to the exam questions and reatempt them, i find this the best way to revise.
