When I revise I like to record myself singing my notes and then I just listen to it on repeat for hours.

Meh.
Do it the way that suits you, it'll work better :smile:
good luck trying to do more than 10 of those things for each subject / module...

I just pace around my room clutching the sylalbus until I am confident that I know it all. Then EVERY past paper there is available. It works for me...

Listen to music you haven't heard before, your brain creates more connections between neurons when you do something new. This sounds bizarre but it works, got me through Unit 4 Chemistry by listening to System of a Down, which I hadn't listened to before.
Good luck. You seem to be planning to nothing but revise from now until the exams. Exciting times.
How about: Just do the revision instead of making lists on how to do it?! :confused:
1) Review notes
2) set a study schedule
3) get help on things you don't know
4) make mind maps
5) type out all your notes again
6) past papers
7) practise doing questions
8) record yourself saying your notes and listening to them
9) write your notes own in post-it notes and place them everywhere
10) memorise your notes into a tune
11) cope out the textbook
12) keep writing it until perfect
13) keep reading your notes
14) recite your notes in front of the mirror
15) practise doing questions under exam conditions
16) attend all extra lessons for your exams
17) put your notes into revision cards
18) set yourself mini tests
19) get your friends to test you
20) read around your subjects
21) get involved in discussions about the subjects you're revising
22) look, cover, write, check
23) always keep a book of notes with you to review them on the bus etc
24) concentrate on things you don't know

that's as far as I can go lol

my sure fired way
copy notes into your own words from a text book or other and TYPE IT UP so you have all notes then nearer to the exam you go through the notes and break them down into 2-4 pages for quick note revision!! always worked for me
100. Get off of TSR and stop procastinating, then actually revise instead of making threads about revising.
for me it's:
1. post it notes
2. post it notes
3. post it notes
4. post it notes
and so on and so forth until:
99. stuff written on pieces of paper (post it note shortage)
teach it to someone else- thats the best way in my opinion, although, i am kiiiinda biased seeing as i want to be a teacher....
