How do I improve?

I feel so tired. I've been revising so hard for physics for over a year now, yet I see no improvements. It's genuinely depressing me. I just sat the 2024 papers and I think I'm on track for a U. I literally do hours every day and I'm predicted As in Maths and CS. I hate the subject so much. I've tried everything, all sorts of revision methods, and I even have a tutor now. Yet, I still see no change. I just don't know what to do anymore. I'm not making it to uni at this rate. There's no time left

I’m in the exact same situation, no method of revision helps me no matter how much I try. But honestly if you give up you’re only letting yourself down. I BELIEVE IN YOU GIRL! Don’t give up! Think about yourself in ten years and how much you’ll appreciate yourself for not giving up now. You will make it to uni and even if you don’t, theres so many other paths you can take to get to your destination. Try your absolute hardest and work for your end goal, I know it may seem pointless but everything happens for a reason. You can do it if you keep trying!
