    You're going to be able to concentrate for six hours straight between 6am and lunch?

    Hint: that was rhetorical.

    Haha, no, for all of them :3
    Monday's schedule would look like, Greek Philosophy: Aristotle and Plato, Stress to Stress' influence on the immune system, All of conformity, Moral Absolutism and Relativism, Quality of information.

    I usually go in chronological order, make notes, then revise those the next day and continue on with the specimen. I think if I can successfully keep to such a pace, I can finish all of my subject's information and do some past papers.

    erm maybe 1 or 2 a day because I haven't learnt all the content yet and I only learn new things in revision by past papers so I will kinda fail at this plan :L
