How have you changed your revision strategies from mocks to the actual GCSE's??

Hey,

I'm a GCSE student doing their exams this year!
(Based on revising for mocks, then revising for the actual GCSE's)
What have you guys done differently when it came to revising from then vs now?? What changed in your revision, presumably allowing you to perform better for your GCSE's? (What made you realize?)

Honestly, any subject specific tips or general tips will help out a lot! (In case others need a boost too.)
(I do: (Math, English), Trip Science, Geography, French, Drama, and Further Math! If that helps.)

Thank you!!

I mean, I am currently preparing for half of my mocks given that I've done some before Christmas (don't ask) but they finish mid January, and after that I'm planning to do spaced revision of active learning more, doing more past papers. But my revision methods have changed a lot from Y10, I'm doing more blurting and exam questions instead of just writing notes and making flashcards which just wasted my time. I'm not sure if my overall results have become better or worse, but hopefully better. I do Maths, English Lit and Lang, Triple Science, French, Computing, Product Design and Geography, feel free to ask me anything about those subjects!
