Hii so I did AQA psychology so the content may be different but maybe the exam format is sinailr? For psychology revision I made flashcards using the website gizmo and basically memorised my entire textbook/notes (it's easier than you think if you start immediately) in a form where everything made sense to me! On Gizmo, you basically write some text and then fill in the blanks instead of how normal flashcards are, so I found this much easier for remembering lots of information! This might be helpful? And lots of past paper questions as well as looking at mark schemes which can often give you simple information to help your basic understanding!

Hi for chemistry ocr would recommend MaChemGuy videos which are specific to OCR. Allery Chemistry also has some summary videos of chapters which you can filter by OCR in his playlists on YouTube.

for chemistry, I can recommend a few things:
physics and maths tutor has a tonne of useful resources such as mind maps, flashcards, and past papers (OCR A specific)
SaveMyExams can be useful for.... well..... Saving your exams, more specifically it gives you actual explanations of things, which is nice (OCR specific)
you can also try Seneca, it has stuff for almost every A-level, not just chemistry, but your mileage for its usefulness may vary
For further reading in chemistry:
libretexts, probably my most visited website and a fantastic OER
chemguide.co.uk (particularly great for learning/revising organic mechanisms, when you start organic)

as for the other subjects, I haven't done much, so no idea, but seneca may be useful

also, if you have questions about chemistry, you can seek out help on either the chemistry stack exchange (though I'd be wary since you'll likely get a very technical answer that's way beyond A-level) or you can ask other students like me who took or are taking OCR A chemistry
