Time is literally running out…

Revision is a very personal process. Different things apply to different people.

However, I always YOU after YOU have recieved an examination grade…

‘Did YOU get the grade YOU revised for? If so, did YOUR revision methods really work?’

The problem is when YOU think YOU are revising, but in reality YOU are simply re-doing what YOU already know?

 

Or maybe YOU are re-reading notes and actually putting yourself into a difficult situation by making yourself too familiar with the notes- rather than actually knowing them?

 

YOU may be familiar with whether YOU are a VISUAL, AUDIO or a KINAESTHETIC learner? (If YOU are unsure CLICK HERE to complete a questionnaire to help YOU determine your learning style! YOU should know!)

Once YOU have figured this out- try out a variety of strategies to help you learn! Not just recap…

Here is a small list I have compiled- if you need more information on any of them- leave a comment and I will get back to YOU.

 

  • Reading Notes
  • Making notes
  • Flash Cards
  • Online Tests/Quizzes
  • Answering Past Paper questions
  • Using info grids
  • Making mind maps
  • Revising with a partner
  • Making up acronyms
  • Re-doing Keyword blocks
  • Analysing Mark schemes
  • Writing bulleted plans
  • Re-reading Essay Feedback
  • Reading/Re-writing Class notes
  • Highlighting and annotating Information Booklets
  • Reading Textbooks
  • Recording information and then listening to it
  • Making a Post it note wall of notes
  • Getting tested

CAN YOU THINK OF OTHER METHODS? AS LONG AS THEY WORK FOR YOU- USETHEM!!
