Is it too late to start revising now?

That's great if it worked on you but I personally don't think it's a wise decision to 'mentally collapse' yourself everyday until the exam in order to achieve 10A*s. Well done to you for gaining them but they are definitely achievable without having to erase all type of social life from your daily routine.

"is it too late" lmao what the hell the alternative to starting now is starting later/not starting at all and royally ****ing yourself.

Tomorrow, I am going to try and do 9 a day hours until the end of easter...

In terms of subject revision here's what I am doing and how I feel about the subject

Maths - past papers - very confident
Biology - A4 mind map with lots of pictures and words - confident
Chemistry - A4 mind map with lots of pictures and words - confident
Physics - A4 mind map with lots of pictures and words - confident
English literature - ... - I'm ****ed (going to try and revise themes, context, characters then practice essay style questions)
English language - ... - I'm ****ed even more (practice exam technique)
Geography - A4 mind map with lots of pictures and words - confident
ICT - past papers and text book
Computing - ... - I'm so ****ed (if I get an A in one of my coursework pieces then I'm not as ****ed. There isn't much to revise for computing so it's just textbook work and past papers)
Resistant materials - past papers, text book and coming up with designs appropriate to the context given by the exam board.

but u see the thing is with me, it does not go into my head, subjects like re and geography are just... ugh

I was supposed to start in February but I keep procrastinating and can only manage about an hour of work a day. How do you revise without procrastinating and how many hours a day is enough for A*s and A grades?
If I start revising tomorrow morning is that too late to achieve my targets? (My first exam is the 16th of May)

Yeah I can sympathise - it was like that for me with maths and science - try to find alternative ways of revising for the more difficult ones that work better for you!

So, for maths and science I did past papers, and instead of normal notes I made posters, cause it just seemed to work better for me - I also spent much more time on those subjects, just because I had more difficulty remembering them.

There'll always be those subjects that give you a mental block, but hey, thats what's great about A levels - you get to ditch them!

YES, exactly that's why im looking forward to next year because these subjects will be looong gone haha

This sounds like a plan - if you are really struggling with English there are two good resources that I use

1) Mr Bruff Videos on You Tube - they aren't too long and especially for the language paper he goes through each question with good examples.

2) Examiners notes - you will find this where the past papers are - this is where the examiner tell you how well students answered the questions and what was commonly missed. This can really help take your answer to the next level.

Good Luck

Yes, my first is on the 17th May just do past papers dont even bother making notes it's a waste of time. For the sciences watch revision videos plus past papers and flick through cgp day before exam. For english look at the examiner's report. It helped me get an a star in january and btw it was closed book and I only re read Of mice and men plus A View From The Bridge on the weekend as well as key quotes. For other subjects like geography do mind maps and focus on case studies. Btw I got a conditional offer for woodhouse and besides don't stress too much over Gcses. Focus on subjects you wish to take at a level, english, maths and science.
