Writing down concepts and drawing diagrams helps me to connect with the topic. Drawing diagrams especially helps me very much with finding the main focus and understanding better. Chemistry is not always easy to understand at first glance, so when I am studying a topic I struggle with, my first approach is just watching the lesson. I think it's important to understand what is going on exactly before starting to write it down. Then I write my notes according to the concepts I find most important to remember: definitions, working strategies for practicals, formulas, examples, diagrams, past paper solved questions - @studynotes_gcse even suggestions for the exam. In this way, I have created a synthesis of all the things I need to remember. Another thing that helped me very much was looking back at the syllabus from time to time, to see what were the concepts I was expected to know. It also helped with revision, because like this I could verify what I revised and what I missed. Past papers were an excellent strategy to understand certain concepts better, learn how to structure an answer properly, and also how to understand methodologies. So, my suggestion is to solve as much as you can under exam conditions (set a timer, don't look at your notes or the mark scheme) and then watch a solved past paper video to verify mistakes, misconceptions, and doubts. It worked wonders for me. studynotes gcs
