Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

How much revision should i be doing to get at least 1 A* at A level

My current grades in maths, geography and philosophy are AAA

write now im writing out all my notes agian and doing practice questions. I probably work (including lesson times) 5 1/2 to six hours and day and three hours a day on weekends. I was planning to ramp it up to 40 hrs a week after christmas but should i start sooner?
ALso i probs reduce hours on one day a week from 5 1/2 hours to 4 hours due to ilness or extra curricularpo

This is too impractical- doing 6 hours a day of revision is unnecessary and you are very likely to burn out very quickly. Set yourself revision targets rather than timings, e.g. by the end of the day I want to be able to differentiate x types of equation etc. You've got loads of time until your exams so as long as you keep the revision going and revise smart (re-writing notes loads of times is not a good type of revision!) you will do great :smile:
