Revision tips

Revision tips

1. Plan your time wisely - be realistic about how much you can do and share it out between the subjects!

2. Stock-up before you start a revision session - plenty of food and drink so that you have fewer excuses to go walkies!

3. You are not a machine! Don't stress yourself out, take a break at least every hour (but not every 10 mins).

4. Keep hydrated - it's better for your brain! Water is a million times better than lucozade!

5. Keep it active - use a range of strategies which involve testing yourself!

6. Don't revise in bed - you'll just fall asleep!

7. Use a revision guide or website as well as your own notes.

8. Try reading your notes in a funny accent or as a song - they'll stick in your head better!

9. Pretty notes are not always happy notes - especially if you spent the last hour making them pretty!
