Will you be revising over Christmas?

I will be going through my flashcards.

got my mocks right after christmas, so definitely revising

It's the most wonderful time of the year

However, although Christmas is just round the corner that doesn't mean the work necessarily stops. With GCSE's and A-level exams getting ever closer, different students take different approaches to the winter break.

For some it's books down and mince pies up, but for others it's a great time to start getting their head into revision mode for the tough few months that lie ahead.

So I wanted to know what TSR's plans are this Christmas.

Are you team work? Team Chill? Or Somewhere In-Between?

( No this thread isn't just me trying to make myself feel better as I stop working ASAP )

Nope I'm going on holiday!

im 100% revising- i have jan exams
not to mention, i live in qatar and with the current world cup, we're having no school for 6 weeks! - i've been rlly lazy with my revision and need to get back to revising asap

I love how @Evil Homer made a thread to spread Christmas cheer but instead got bashed on by exams and mocks

I have Year 12 mocks after Christmas so I am doing an hour of Spanish vocabulary a day, and practicing my speaking for thirty minutes a day, I am currently re-reading all of my texts for English Literature with the audiobook (The Tempest, and The Handmaid's Tale), and I am doing history revision topic by topic with Quizlet.

I studied The Handmaid's Tale for A Level too and I absolutely loved it! How are you finding it?

I love it so much - a few people in my English class have complained about it being long-winded, but I think Margaret Atwood writes the most vivid and amazing prose, and the historical and literary context surrounding the novel is fascinating! I am really excited to compare it to 1984 next year (my Sixth Form does OCR English Literature, and for Paper 2 we are doing the Dystopian topic.)

I actually thought that Atwood had crafted it so well that nothing in the novel was without purpose and I loved the devices she uses (e.g. wordplay, the fact that some of the parts are deliberately disjointed, etc.). I think we were AQA and we did it as part of the Social and Political Protest topic for A2 (I really enjoyed the whole thing).
