    How much are you revising a night (after school)?
    How much are you revising after school? I'm planning on doing about 2-3 hours a night after school but am feeling tired after a long days work at school.

    EDIT: After a week of making this thread i've decided to do 1-2 hours

    Didn't have school today but I'm planning on staying for a couple of hours and working solidly through those. Then going home and doing a bit more.

    Planning on it. Might end up going to McDonalds or something instead though

    EDIT: Oh ffs, just seen where this has been posted. I'm A-Level. I did about 0 hours for GCSE though.

    Went to school, tried to do work.

    Failed.

    Said to myself when I get home, catch up on work missed and do lots of good quality work.

    Failed.

    School distracts you and zaps all energy, but Im feeling good because my belly is full and I'm relaxed.

    Work tommorow yesyesyes.

    I am managing about 2-3 hours of revision on top of the (pointless) homework that is set. As long as you have some sort of revision plan in place you should be fine.

    Please tell me the people who selected 5+hours are trolls!!!

    If I were to start working as soon as I got home non stop for 4 hours I wouldn't finish until 9 pm.


    Btw well done to those clever people who calculated that I get home at 4 pm!!!

    It is possible to get A* with less than a weeks worth of revision but it's not recommended. Seriously not wise unless you have a time machine and repeated the week over and over again?
