Chemistry tips? For a current E grade student

Hi I’m in year 13. I recently achieved an E in my chemistry mock exam. I’m aiming for an A* ( bc I need to guarantee an A). I was honestly alr at chem in year 12, I got Bs in AS tests so naturally my teacher predicted me an A. I’ve fallen off so badly tho - I’m finding year 13 content rlly challenging and did not revise at all for my mock exams - which is completely my fault. Ever since my mocks I’ve been doing 5-6 hours of revision every day ( 3 hours of chem) and I’ve been relearning all organic chem as that’s where I really struggle - and I’ve been seeing some improvements! Some of the questions on my mocks I didn’t attempt I can actually answer now correctly 😭 My teacher told me today that if I work hard I could get a C, or even a B if I rlly try. And although this sounds kind of cringe , her words have sort of ignited a fire in me - like I NEED to prove her wrong. Honestly I love my teacher she’s so helpful, but I really NEED to prove her wrong and get an A* ( or A). I’m rlly glad she’s said that to me cos it’s rlly further fuelled my motivation - which has been quite hard having 4 med rejections while all your friends are prepping for interviews anyway I’m taking a gap yr cos I want to do dentistry. enough of the yapping - this post has become more like a story than a question 😭. I do OCR A chemistry, does anyone have any tips In general on how to drastically improve my grade? Any tips or advice for the organic side ?
