GCSE students - time to think about your revision!
Here are a few simple tips that will help you:
• Find a quiet space away from distractions.
• Put your phone on ‘do not disturb’ or turn off notifications.
• Revise in short 20–30-minute sessions.
• Handwrite your own flashcards and notes.
• Explain what you have learnt to a friend/family member.
• Don’t leave your revision to the last minute.
• Little and often is better than last minute.
• Try the 2 3 5 7 rule: Make notes on day 1. Recap day 2 ,3, 5 and 7.
