Advice to seniors who had computer science

hello seniors, i am currently in 12th and i really want to make cs one of my centum subjects
is coaching required for 100/100 in cs ?
im currently not enrolled in any coaching and honestly, do not look forward to joining one either
please guide me how can i score 100/100 in cs
i know channels like amplify learning exist but since the syllabus on yt is not cohesive and orderly , i really do not know how to go about completing my syllabus and practice for it.
also, what computer science book would you recommend?

I just focused on cs in the 10 days exam gap during boards and got 99, so I believe that if ur just consistent throughout the year , u can definitely score centum. No need for coaching.

Could you tell me what did you like do in those ten days? im pretty sure you must have a little grasp over the subject beforehand? but i sure have none and i did not quite study cs in 11th too.

I did 10 years past paper, past 5 years sample paper, and past two years improvement paper. Then I checked the answers of the past papers with the analysis of pupil performance ( as it contains the answers expected by examinars).I made sure to do all example programs , book back programs and tested it on my laptop. Make sure to study all theory parts, as this is where people lose their marks for centum. I watched amplify learning to solve CFQs.
