How Much Revision Do you do?

Per Day, how much do you average, weekdays and weekends? I usually do about 3 hours (Today I've done 4) but I'm wondering if I'm doing enough

School days I do about 2 hours! Weekend it's more like 4-5! Though about half isn't very productive! :smile:

I spend more time reading on nutrition and bodybuilding than I do on construction management, which I do a degree in. Serious!

Wow you guys so do much.
I do between nothing to about 3 hours a day, it's normally leaning more towards the nothing side though.
If you take out procrastination I've done about 2 hours today I guess?
Like an hour and a half max:Z
It depends on the exam, and the amount of cramming required. For IB History, I ended up clocking ten hours four days in a row, preceded by light revision (a few hours a week) for a couple of months. I'd say I average around five hours a day in the month before exams.

I know! And someone I know was like 'done 9 hours today'. If you take out procrastination I've done about 4 1/2 (I did an extra hour since starting the thread)

How the hell do you do 9 hours revision?! I don't understand how someone can revise that much XD.
Even 4 1/2 is a lot of revision though, I wish I had the willpower and attention span to do that. I think I could do three hours tops in a day, I may have done that for my science exams.
Well done on doing all that revision! ;u;
This half term has shown that I work better during the evening. I usually revise and/or do past papers from 6pm-1am, with 10 minute breaks dotted in between. I procrastinate more in the day, so this is a much better alternative :biggrin:
I normally start revision around 9pm and finish around 11 - 12 at night. But it really does depend on the subject

about 3+ depending on how close the exam is
Sometimes 5-6 hours, I swear the time just flies. I feel as if there is not enough hours in the day. I mostly set targets, rather than hours. I wish I didn't need to sleep, then I'd have more time on my hands lol

Finally finished another topic for A2 Gov&Pol :frown: 2 more topics to revise.. Ecologism is one big yawn..
