Where should you revise? Warm Well lit (a reading lamp reduces eye-strain) In a quiet room Have a clock or watch nearby (time your revision sessions). How should you revise?

How to plan your revision:  Have a definite finishing time  Plan regular breaks  Get up and walk around during your break  Drink plenty of water  Have a tick list of topics to cover  Gradually aim to summarise your notes. How should you revise?

How to plan your revision cont.:  Revise the same work again after 10 minutes.  Briefly review the work: after 1 day after 1 week.  This method will fix the work quite firmly into your long-term memory. How should you revise?

When we revise we remember: 20% of what we read 30% of what we hear 40% of what we see 50% of what we say 60% of what we do 90% of what we read, hear, see, say and do!

There are many ways to revise. Choose the right way for you! You have a particular learning style and you should revise using the techniques that will be best for your learning style. Remember you are either a Visual, Auditory or Kinesthetic learner.

How to Revise What is a revision session ? Think of a session as a third of a day - it could be 3 to 4 hours long Many people find it helpful to revise for 2 out of the 3 sessions per day. Here is a possible pattern: Revise Free MORNING AFTERNOON EVENING

How to Revise What kind of person are you ? Some students are early birds. They will definitely want to use the morning session. Late risers will avoid mornings like the plague ! Night owls will do their best revision in the evenings.

How to Revise Decision One: For how long should I revise? Try asking yourself these questions What amount of time will I need to tackle the tasks ahead of me ? What lengths of time suit my attention span ? Answering these questions will help you to create a time plan.

Also Talk It Through With Someone: Some people just love to talk. In fact, they need to talk in order to get information and ideas clear in their mind. So talk it through. With a parentWith a friendWith a teacher Discuss the topic together Ask the person to explain it while you listen Explain it to them while they listen

Put yourself into the right frame of mind! RELAX Take deep breaths Bop till you drop Meditate Go on a mental vacation
