Mocks in 1 week and not revised!

i need opinions... ive got one week left till my mocks and so far have covered a little bit of bio and maths. i use mainly medly + cognito for my sciences and drfrost/sparks and ppq for maths. i dont like to take new notes of make new flashcards as i dont have time but for english im planning on watching yt videos and just making little mindmaps and stuff. do you guys think ill be ok for mocks? ive got 6 hours planned for tommmorow and study with the pomodoro method so i dont tend to feel 'over-worked'. i just hope for good maths, sciences and ok english grades. im not too concerned about my other subjects for now.
here are my predicted for those btw:
physics - 9
biology - 9
chemistry - 8
maths - 7
english lit and lang - 6 (?)
for A-level im also taking chem, phy, maths so i want to make sure i do my best in those.
i also really want to get at least a 7 in both english lit and lang!
i do edexcel IGCSE for all of them

anyone got any tips or opinions? i couldn't start earlier as i was very unwell.

Ooh nice predicted grades!
In my opinion, if you already know the content, just fast forward to doing past papers, especially for maths and for English Literature and Language, try finding quotes that fit a lot of themes and try to write an essay on them and plan your structures for English Language.
Good luck!

Hi with one week left, you can absolutely make a difference if you focus strategically: stick to active revision for sciences using sites like cognito, concentrating on topics you feel you are weaker in continue using Dr frost etc. but proritise times, exam-style problems. Using pomodoro method to guide revision will help too.
