How do I get my chem grade up in 5 months? Am i cooked?

I do edexcel A level chemistry and I've been slacking off. My main issues are the questions are so wordy that I don't know what it's asking me to do or what reaction I'm suppose to be writing unless it's explicitly stated.
What I'm trying to ask is I really need resources. Please. As many as possible. I've got 5 months to cram everything I've learnt in year 12 so far, I just don't have resources.

Edexcel is a difficult one to access a good number of resources for outside of PMT.

A small number of past papers have been dissected by Davies A level chemistry.

In terms of practical resources, you can find all the sheets with the methods, required equipment and sample practical chemistry questions on Edexcel’s own website. They’ve cunningly hidden them under the dropdown titled “worksheet”.

I did Edexcel A level chemistry back in 2022 and got an A*. If you have any specific questions pertaining to content or whatever, by all means ask them.

Thank you so much! I'll 100% reach out if I have any more questions, you're a lifesaver.
