Enhancing our concepts and understanding about the topic is more important than the time allocation for revision. If a person has a firm grasp of the subject than his chances for achieving 'A' is higher.
Improving the understanding of the subject should be the first priority of a student.
As far as revision time goes, allocation of 6 hours per day is the least time for revision.

Oh, looking back on the GCSE days of yore...

Literally, do a few papers, read the mark schemes and the textbook now and again and, with a bit of common sense, an A* should be well within reach.

Ask the same question when you get to A2 and I would probably go into cardiac arrest after you said 30 days before I had a chance to respond "30*24=720 hours of revision".

I'm studying both a science and an english = Biology and English Literature (I don't really count Psychology as a science lol)

3 Hours a day during school days and 6 hrs and 30 minutes during school holidays (3hrs and 15 mins in the morning with 15 minutes break after 1 hr 30 mins session (x2)...and the same in the afternoon!) :smile:

My revision isn't writing notes (that should all be done by now!). It's about answering lots and lots of questions online and on the AQA Book, and going over past papers, as well as making queue cards! For English, it's basically just going through different poems and books and analysing it all and keeping a record of useful quotes! :biggrin:
Started exactly 100 days before my first exam and would generally do 5-10 hours a day every day. Started from scratch and worked independently for most of it and came out with A*A*AAa* in Bio/Math/Chem/Phys/epq

I think you have a loose nut in your thinking mechanism.
Yes! without a doubt Allah is the giver and taker but Allah says that one should not expect anything good when one is not even trying.
Revising for 10 minutes a day is nothing, yup it is nothing.
How can someone enter the examination hall learning nothing but still with the expectation to pass with flying colors? If someone thinks so then he might be a madman.

Wrong. Maybe for you, yes. But for me, and I'm sure a lot of other people, less than half of that is enough. It's about what you're doing as opposed to how long, as I'm sure you know

I don't revise at all, which is probably a risky strategy.

How much ignorant can you be? It is a real shame.
Why don't you burn all your books and just keep on praying to Allah.
Allah gives knowledge to those who seek for it.
