    To those who haven't started revising yet.
    Just curious to see if I am the only one or not. I have a grand total of eight exams starting on the 15th of May. I also have to self teach two units before then which I have never looked at before.

    Anyone else who hasn't started yet? (motivation seems to be my problem, not the difficulty of the work itself)

    I'm taking A-level Maths and still need to begin to look at M1, C3, C4 and half of C2. Getting fairly solid in my C1 stuff though?

    I have 6 but most of mine are in mid june so i'm gonna start after the easter holidays. don't have the motivation to do it at the moment anyway so it's the best strategy tbh.

    I started last week but I'm still on the same subject (English) and going very slowly. I'd better try to pick up the pace a bit this week.

    I haven't started properly but all my exams are two weeks apart, and I'm a cramming reviser so I'll cram for 2 weeks, its how I did well last year so don't knock it.

    I'm starting next week or the week after. I've got 3 exams and I alreay know about 1/3 of the content for each of them so I'm not too worried

    Re: To those who haven't started revising yet.
    My attitude is that there is no 'starting' revision - you are revising constantly throughout the year. You just need to gradually increase the amount of work you do and change the focus to exam prep rather than learning. If you have trouble starting, this attitude might help.

    I'm still about half way through teaching myself FP3, haven't started any revision yet. Only done one chapter of the 6 in S4, might not do the exam. I don't actually need it anyway, it's my 15th maths module.

    C1, C4, FP2, FP3, S4, M2, G495 are the exams I'm taking.
