Getting an A* in A level further maths

I am very confident in my pure ability, I got 73/75 and 67/75 in my core pure papers for mocks. I however, have literally zero/base knowledge for further stats and I need some help on where to start so I can get it to A* level. My mechanics is much better than stats but not quite pure level yet, I am looking for best ways to practice further mechanics. Any one willing to share some ideas for learning further stats and where to practice more further mechanics after doing all the past papers

You can look up Bicen maths ( if you do edexcel as he’s very good for edexcel ) but I think you have to pay for the further mechanics and further stats content. He teaches you the content and after going through the videos you can practice from the book doing book question etc. As for more further mechanics practice I’d suggest to do ocr questions ( if you don’t do ocr already ) as they’re more trickier than other exam boards

I do edexcel, and I will look at bicen maths!
