A Level Religious Studies from scratch (AQA)

I'm self studying RS as a private candidate and starting from scratch. I can handle psychology and sociology as I've done psychology before at A Level so I know roughly what to expect, but where do I start with RS? What do I need to know? I know the exams only want you to answer a couple of questions, and that they require longer essays, so what do I need to cover?

I do OCR but I’ve looked at some AQA papers. A good place to start would be with some basic ideas so people like Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and Augustine as they lay the foundations for both religious and non religious perspectives. I’m not sure what AQA it might be the same but different names but with OCR we cover religious language, religious experience, Gods nature, proof for existence of God, Ethics so I’d say cover that. Sorry I can’t be of more help
