Re: how many hours a day over easter do you guys revise?AAB, so I get in to my first choice studying English Literature at Leeds. The disclaimer I'm going to have to give is that I took Lit, Lang and History so perhaps revision for those subjects isn't as time consuming as the Sciences.(Original post by KiwiBerry)

biology can be tricky with the language you need to use.

Re: how many hours a day over easter do you guys revise?I'm on OCR and wow those are some pretty good grades considering the fact that you don't revise. Good luck on achieving those grades.(Original post by cuckoo99)

How are you finding psychology? I don't think it requires much revision but it's one of those subjects that takes you by surprise in exams.

Re: how many hours a day over easter do you guys revise?im on AQA aswell(Original post by GMD)
We have really good teachers, so we finish all subject syllabus' by around January/February. Then we just do revision/past papers in lessons, and easter is like our final read through. After easter it's just mocks, then the weeks before the exams we start A2.
To answer your question, If you think carefully about the time you spend doing your 4 subjects, i'm sure you've spent a bit of time procrastinating, doodling, daydreaming. Everyone does. But it all adds up in the end. Anyways, when one learns to iron out that time, their productivity increases exponentially. Stuff that would take normally 3 hours then takes only 1 hour, and suddenly you have 2 ours to sneak out of dorms and go drinking, hoping the pop won't catch you.
AQA. Especially nonsensical, the mark schemes are so ridiculously specific, one can't help but wonder what the point in the text book actually is.
indeed the mark schemes are terribly specific

None at all.
I can never revise anything this far in advance and expect to remember by exam day.
Plus I've finished the courses so all my class time is revision anyway.
I'll start revising about a week before my first exam and probably get AAAB.
But for that week I'll be revising like crazy.
