    Write all of your subjects, in order of what you need to study the most-least
    Then, open the syllabus for the subjects and basically go through it.
    If you need help, ask somebody I take:
    Geography/Ict/Classics of you need help with any of those feel free to PM me

    Don't worry lots of students experience this the hardest part about revising is starting; once you've started it should be easier.

    Here are a few things that might help!:

    - Time tables, some people like them, and some people don't. Try and make a time table (but don't spent too long making it pretty! :P) and stick to it. Remember to give yourself reasonable breaks and to pay attention when you actually revise. There's no point starting at your book for half an hour, it's a complete waste of time!

    - Subject tables, this is my personal faviroute and one I use most of the time. Write out parts of the topic you need to learn and once you've done it, tick it off on your subject table list. I usually provide myself a reward when I complete an area which is an incentive to work harder.

    - Snacks and drinks, I often find a snack or drink helps me concentrate while I study, but I might just be weird

    You need to keep positive and remind yourself exams won't last forever.

    Finishing your exams and knowing you've done the best you canis a great feeling! :yep:
