Procrastination for Y12 mocks

Hi,
I'm in year 12 and my mocks are in less than a month, and I'm doing A-level maths not long after that. Basically, I'm struggling to concentrate and revise for any length of time and would be greatly appreciating of any strategies people have used to quickly improve focus. For context, I'm doing well in school at the moment (I've got pretty much all A's throughout this year) and I got 999998888776 in my GCSE's, but revision has always been a big struggle for me - including at GCSE's. Ik some people will say I don't need to worry, but I'm aiming really high (hopefully A*A*A*A*) and obviously A-levels are a different kettle of fish to GCSE's, where you could get by on basically no revision. I just want to be in a position in two weeks where I am SURE that I will get the best grades I can, and right now, my 1 focused hour of revision a day is not cutting it. Help would be greatly appreciated :smile:
(And yes, I am procrastinating right now)

So do you have official AS exams that will decide your predicted grades and is this one above that grade or internal mocks? How does it work

Internal mocks that will decide my predicted grades, but they're basically AS papers.

It’s easier to get 4a*s as level . Than those GCSEs so you’re fine
