Year 10 is not too bad .. take a complete day off every week to refresh the batteries
How about writing down a lists of reasons why you want to pass your exams. When you can't be arsed to revise or whatever, run through the list of reasons.

Or you could do the opposite, and write a list of reasons of how much of a failure you'd be if you didn't pass your exams. That's motivational.

Haha thanks. :smile:
Do the pomodoro technique, when you complete 25 mins and go on to do your 5 minute break, you feel so accomplished! :awesome:

The more 25 min sections of work you complete, the more amazing you feel! :tongue:

Maybe like keep telling yourself you will fail if you don't revise to reinforce doing so, I actually know some people who don't revise for mocks and get bad grades so they are pushed to do well in the real exams.
