Ways to revise

Hi, can anyone give me some ways of how to revise and some tips?:smile:
For maths - this link has all the pastpapers including 2015 june and nov and many other resources like what topics etc: http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/show....php?t=3906471 use the tsr learning resources will help you to find the resources easily :http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/g/resources?
Also you can make your own study resources: https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/g/make
you can find all the things on this link - http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/learning.php
revision techniques- https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/g/d...ow-to-revise-5
Study timetable in case if you want to make one and don't know where to start:[video="youtube;q_5LXfMMrEg"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_5LXfMMrEg[/video]
These methods pretty go with all the subjects...
Method of revision:
- mindmaps
- teaching others
- recording yourself and listening back to it
- repeating things aloud
- revising with classmates
- drawing diagrams
- making a song of it
- a silly story to help it stick
- making notes from textbook then summarising those further into your own words (try having a limit on number of words to stick to key points)
- writing things over and over again
- using colour

Make a list of all the topics, prioritise them by ordering in terms of which you need more help with/need more time to go over, then tackle each one

If there is something you're particularly stuck on, ask the teacher for help!

Get practise from exam and practise questions! It will help to reinforce things and find your weaker areas.
hope that helps :h:

Any subjects in particular, or just in general? :smile:

Edit: above poster has won this thread. I'm saving that post. It's mine now.
I cut my revision notes into the side of a pig. It really sinks in.

Erm maybe for English (poems, short stories, Mr Pip and language)
