Year 11: Preparations & Tips Why it is important to revise!

 Write down three ways you currently revise for assessment tests, mini test and internal exams  Can you only think of one example?  Have you been successful with this way of revising?

 Tried and tested methods are:  Mind maps / spider diagrams  Cue / flash cards  Writing notes – then condensing them into key words or bullet points  Creating a song / poem / visual representation  Colour-coding  Recording yourself reading your condensed notes

 Y64 Y64

 Make a list of the subjects that you need to revise for between now and your exams.  Work out which subjects have the most content that needs to be revised.  Concentrate on those specific topics or modules that you are weak on.

 Break down major revision subjects into smaller parts, this can help you make your studying more precise.  Ensure that you include break times during the day, these are important to help you unwind and to make sure you don’t burn yourself out.

 Work out when you ‘study best’, for instance some people are able to concentrate better in the morning. Then use these times to study those topics that require the most effort and energy.  Do not leave your most difficult or hardest subjects till the end of the day. Instead try to get these out of the way early on.

 After completing a revision period cross it off from your timetable. This will help to instil a sense of accomplishment.  At the end of each week assess your performance and change your plans accordingly.
