James-M Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 I just do abit of everything. If i'm bored on the computer I might go on bitesize for abit. We've got study leave at school, but they've got revision lessons going on aswell which is all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 I always used to leave revision till the last minute, because its the only way it would stick.Don't have to worry about that now i'm doing art at uni though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudirudirudirudirudi Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 i find that if you get some past papers and just work throught them it means that you practise pretty much the whole sylabus. best way really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant H Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 If you know your going to fail why revise?You obviously don't think that you will fail if your revising.Sounds stupid that your trying harder in subjects that you seem to know that you have failed..

hI-OOPS-CAPS Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 I just read my notes and write important things down, lucky for me my course is mainly equations and statements so not much english must be wrote. Revision for english and biology was harder as there's more literature which isnt for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
destructor Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 (edited) Well I've jus done my finals at university and I've always found that jus repeatedly making notes works for me. I work things out as a system if you get me? Like to get to A you need B and C, jus learn the main components and fill in the gaps when you write in the exam.A guy on here said to summarize everything on a page - thats a really good one because if you can do that your golden. Also explaining it or teaching it to someone so that they understand it helps massivly too.Also you can do too much - after a while you just lose interest so take a break for a lil while Edited May 25, 2007 by destructor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Dig Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 I'm doing my highers atm and i find with revision going onto bite-size and tanking all their tests then resting a while then doing some paster papers and reading notes works well. At the end of the day I'm lucky that I'm o smart so sorta know most things anyway so i find revision two or three days before it seems to be all i need. (this will of course be found out when i get my grades) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liamchai Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 (edited) Get loads of mini notes with things that you need to revise and like go through them daily but don't spend too much time revising though, you'll get stressed out and all that which will make revision harder and more boring Oh and eat chocolate biscuits when revising (those digestive types) Edited May 25, 2007 by Liamchai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mowgli Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 i think that gcse's are pretty easy and aren't as important as all the hype makes out so wouldn't worry too much. Its all good though to try and do some revision.L8er Moggles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alastair Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Im doing my A2's this year, and i think revision is essential, i didnt do any for my AS's last year and payed the price, thank god for resits though.I just copy and make notes from the textbook, then go through after the section and highlight the key parts. I find it helps a lot because its like rehersal (for those who do Psychology).But yeah my advice is revise, for GCSE's it shouldnt matter too much, but as you go up the years its adviseable.

Mat Smith! Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 If you know your going to fail why revise?You obviously don't think that you will fail if your revising.Sounds stupid that your trying harder in subjects that you seem to know that you have failed..You are the biggest f**king idiot ever, just shut up and leave him alone.Would you not even try at your exams if you wasn't good at them?

basher Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Most people just end up revising what they can already do and over look the stuff they cant because it makes you feel like you no alot more because your not getting stuck and wound up because you cant do something. Just make sure you go through your notes and work on the stuff you struggle with and make sure you dont have msn on or tele because it does distract you how ever hard you try.
