Hi @doomspire

Hope you're well 🙂

Honestly there's no set answer on this, as everyone is really different.

A good thing for you to do would be to have a timetable to maybe revise through 1-2 topics per day on the weekends or a set amount of content rather than revising eg - 7 hours per day because that can become exhausting.

See what works best for you but do remember that everyone works at different paces too. Good luck and let me know what you choose to do!

Hi @doomspire

These are already amazing grades already, well done!

How much do you already study during the week?

This is maybe something to consider and creating a revision timetable could help, by scheduling in all your other commitments and seeing realistically how much free time you have to revise without overdoing it and getting burnt out.

I have a few previous posts I have done that i will link below, they may help you with organising your time effectively.

I hope this helps and good luck :smile:

Hi @doomspire. I used to be a student so I will give my best advice on this. I would say to move from A*AB to AAA* then ideally you should aim for roughly 4-6 hours of study on Saturdays and then around 3-5 hours on Sundays. I would also say prioritise the most on your weakest subject and keep doing regular past papers and keep practicing and do active recall. if you do this consistently then you'll be getting the grades you want in no time ! I hope this helped😀
