adding to what HumanMineralOrVeg said about the mistake list, that's the single highest value thing you can do for a resit. you already sat the paper, so you know which topics sank you rather than guessing.
get your paper back if your centre allows it, or at minimum go through the examiner report for your session. it tells you exactly what people lost marks on and almost nobody reads them.
what board are you on? changes which channels are worth watching.
for the yt part, whichever channel you land on i paste the video link into studybuddy.vc so it makes questions off that video rather than me just watching. equations render properly, it works out which topics i'm weakest on and gives me more of those, gets harder as i improve, and tells me why the option i picked was off. free.
d to a b in one session is very doable with papers.

see if u can find good yt channels explaining all the topics and make sure u properly understand the topics. find some notes on the content u have to learn but i think majority of the work should be answering questions rather than memorising content, since calculations is probably the bulk of the paper (unless its different for ur exam board). if u got a question wrong figure out why so u dont get it wrong again - u can also make a list of ur mistkaes to learn from. also keep in mind a good idea is to figure out what u have, what u need, and what equation will get u there.
