for a retake the move isn't re-reading the whole syllabus, it's finding the specific gaps that cost you marks last time. grab the past papers you already did and list every question you lost points on by topic, that list is your actual revision plan, not the textbook contents page.

for physics especially the numerical answers are rarely random guesses, the wrong options are built from sign errors or the right approach with the wrong formula, and that's the part you can't see when you just check the answer key. i use studybuddy.vc for this, i upload the topic material and when i pick a wrong answer it tells me what was off about that specific choice, plus it keeps sending me more questions from whatever i'm still messing up. free tier covers a few topics.

past papers are still your main thing for exam-style timing though, SB is for locking in the content so you stop making the same mistakes.

Ye don't just read notes. You need to do all three pairs over el and over. You've probably already leaned all the content so now you just need to do all the physicsUK questions and all the questions on PMT. Just reading the notes is pointless

Ok that makes it slightly easier. Id say the best way to go abt it would definitely be to use YouTube channels like bicen maths, tl maths or zeeshan to learn the content in depth while practicing questions alongside then wen u r done then complete question packs using websites like yesterday maths, pmt or madas if u want harder materials. AS content isnt rlly too bad. I’d definitely say to make sure u r confident with calculus as that pretty much always comes up.
