God yeah, life at school tough innit...?
I taught Maths for 15 years. I always told my ablest students the truth about revision. I told them that I'd never revised for a single minute for any of my 9 O-levels or 3 A-levels. I didn't revise for the 'Principles of Education' element of my teaching certificate. I didn't revise for the 'Mathematics' element. I had a few (unnecessary) moments of panic and spent a whole 45 minutes revising for the 'Physics' component. I then didn't do any revision whatsoever for my degree in 'Mathematics as a Double Subject'.

If you've really paid attention to what you've been taught, revision is completely pointless!!!!

The best (only) revision for maths is to practise doing exam questions.
You will appreciate the value of maths as you go through life. Good luck!
Maybe it's something about the name sophie but you sound exactly like I did when I was doing GCSE maths! Am now having to do it again at uni as part of my degree but have a lovely teacher who has the patience of a saint with me!
