Steps

  1. Get a personal space ready. Somewhere quiet and peaceful. Preferably with a large desk. Try your local library.
  2. Make a time table if there are more then one subject.
  3. Revise in quick bursts taking regular breaks and keeping hydrated.
  4. Use different revising skill such as:
    • Flash cards. Question on the front answers on the back.
    • Subject web. Write your subject in the middle of a large page needs to be no bigger then A3 and write the things you know about this subject on arms coming out, you can use colours pictures photographs. Your could put these pieces of paper on your walls and read it everyday - eventually it will stick
    • Revise with a friend.testing each other.
    • Play revision games on the Internet.
    • Buy revision books or just read.
  5. Make a list of things you are struggling to understand.
  6. Having a large quantity of scrap paper handy can help a lot for math problems and just general note scribblings.
  7. A good way to revise is to memorise a page of information as best as you can, cover up the page and then literally scribble down everything you know. Check your answers and be picky about your detail and understanding- 'close' answers don't get you marks in exams.
  8. If there are specific pieces of information you can never remember, write it down on a Post-it and stick it somewhere unexpected, like on the inside of your wardrobe doors, you're bound to remember it after a few days.

Tips

  • Anything you are really stuck on ask a teacher at least 6 weeks before the exam.
  • Try getting a watch to wear in the exams it is easier to keep an eye on the time.
  • A week before the exam just read over simple notes.
  • Night before get equipment ready.
  • After the exam(s).. relax!
  • Always, always do Past papers or at least Practice Papers, time yourself and compare your answers with the Board's mark scheme. Revising the content of the Syllabus can only get you so far.
  • Here's a really good way to revise for subjects that comprise of a lot of information. I used this to revise for my History GCSE, which I had no interest in and got an A:
  • 1. Open up a Word Document.
  • 2. Gather all your notes for the subject and begin with each topic with a heading, use Word to your advantage by underlining important things etc.
  • 3. Vary the way you write out information e.g. in bullet points, paragraphs etc., write it out in a way that you know you'll understand when you come back to reading it.
  • 4. Highlight text in red if you need to find out more about the topic
  • 5. Use Wikipedia and other resources to find information if you don't have it
  • 6. When you're finished, print out your document and use a highlighter to go over the important points. A lot should stick in your head now, make mnemonics for lists of info.
  • 7. The advantage of this document is that it is your whole syllabus, you can write on it and you can understand it. It also organises everything in your head.

Warnings

    1. Try to eat breakfast before school
    2. Drink plenty of water
    3. Don't try to over cram it makes you panic
    4. If you begin to panic during or before the exam take deep breaths or talk to a friend.
    5. Try not to listen to people revising right before the exam, you're best sticking with the information you know well rather than entering the exam thinking of several scraps you overheard.
    6. Eat banana's--- good brain energy
  • Make sure you got all your equipment ready. Worst feeling is looking for a calculator minutes before an exam.
