    Omg these threads depress me so much. I'm just focusing on my coursework atm and everyone's already revising for their June exams.

    Oh dear.

    EDIT: Okay, so I've just read all the posts and now I feel a little bit reassured...:/

    I revise for Psychology by just writing out the main points of each study, im on OCR btw and then just learning these main points such as the aim etc, use flash cards to learn them aswell, works a treat. I also trawl through mark schemes to look how to answer questions.

    My first exam is 11 June, and I've basically covered the content for all of the modules (we had a mock week).

    I intend to do past papers and just recapping for the remaining two months.

    I'm at the point now where I just want to do the exams! (Which may not be a good sign )

    I'm really worried! There's just so little time until May and I haven't established a way of revising yet. I didn't do History GCSE so I'm struggling with the mock essays. Does anyone have any advice?

    Covered most of Maths content (M1/C4), haven't touched Economics or English Lit. Still adequate time for A2 students IMO.

    I revised during Easter because I take 5 A Levels and I have an oral exam the following Thursday. I still can't get the Russian endings right.

    For the last week I've been writing new notes on Biology Unit 5, Chem Unit 5 and Chem Unit 2 (resit)

    I've finished writing them and this week I plan on revising them properly and do a past paper for each unit
    (Last week was my first weak of Easter holiday and this week is my second week, I go back to school on the 24th)
