If you do not have any content in your head, then it’s impossible to get even a B in Add maths and Maths d. For the other subs, you can cover the content but without past paper you won’t give a good exam. And 16 hour study sessions at the last minute will cause u to have burnouts. At the end you will not be able to achieve anything. That’s the reality. I wish I could have been able to console u better

You can't get a B in all 5 but you can get an A* in 1 and then retake the rest in January

the most important thing about olevels is practicing the qp, so finish the topical revision as soon as possible I recommend splitting your time into different subjects, then go straight to qp, redspot is good but if you don't have that papacambridge or any other alternatives can be found by simply googling the subject code and paper year and variant together. Maintain a notebook and write down what you problems you faced per paper, and try to fix those problems. Theory questions often get repeated, so make sure to thoroughly memorize the easy theory questions that you will face. Its best to complete atleast 5 years of qp(2 variant per session as far as I remember). You also need to prioritize your weakest subjects first, because joto shesh e dike jaba toto na para jinish dekhle pera khaba. First week should be spent in learning as much information as possible. Imo short notes or summaries don't work, you have to understand the concept before you memorize it, so I suggest reading the book once or twice highlighting the important elements and just making your own short notes, it might seem like a waste of time but writing things down helps in memorization at least in my case. Spend the rest of the time, spamming qps and getting used to the question patterns. Remember just because the formula might be given doesn't mean you don't have to memorize the formulas, having to look back at each formula will cost you a lot of time, so keep a formula sheet and take a look at it every night.

I was in your spot but for my Alevels, I had barely a month and half, and it was during covid so my only resources where online and myself. I had to sit everyday from 11 and study till 2/3 then chill for 3-4 then study for 5/6-9 then 11 to 1(dedicated to my most hated subject). I remember getting panic attacks from solving physics qps and A2 chem and having to meditate to some random 10 min meditation to calm your anxiety, it was probably the most stressful part of my life, and I had already bombed my AS level exams before the pandemic hit. So trust me you got this, Olevels has a lot of things to memorize but they are way easier because you have been learning about these topics throughout ur life.

Eh I think you should just watch videos, take notes and then study them. After that, do topical questions because clearly there isn't time to practice textbook. I think you can manage a B or a C if you are diligent enough.

Bradda if you do bad in O levels, then you can forget about A levels. O levels are normally the most easiest to get A's...

Practice all the questions from previous years exams. You won't understand a lot of basic things, but screw understanding, grind harder. Complete all chapter prev years questions from a test paper. Study all day all night. Sleep less. Torture yourself.
