Yes you are probably well ahead of your peers.

Exam practise is the key... did you do the past papers under full conditions? The worst thing for exams is running out of time.

The mocks can be bought from ActEd and, if you haven't been doing full conditions, get marking and let someone else assess your skills.

Being so far advanced, you need to keep it ticking over but I can't see any need for you to panic. You are doing all the right things.

Do a past paper exameach every week and then pick out the harder q's in the core reading and q+a bank a couple of weeks before.
