When you do past papers and mark yourself on them, have you reviewed your answers and looked into why you didn't get the marks that you wanted?
•
Have you spoken to a teacher for advice?
•
Do you have a tutor?
•
Do you have a study buddy from school or know of someone who is smarter than you to help you with study?
•
Instead of blindly studying and revising, have you looked into study techniques and exam techniques? Have you found some that are suited to your learning style/work for you best?
•
Have you looked into what is holding you back?
•
Have you looked into your self esteem/confidence issues? Lack of confidence can unwittingly hamper your progress unncessarily. At the same time, too much confidence can make you complacent.
•
Overgeneralisation doesn't help; you would need to be specific. What do you think is specifically the issue here?
•
If there is something else on your mind, it might help to talk it through as well (with professionals such as counsellors if necessary). A scattered mind isn't conducive for study or exam performance. Does this apply to you?
•
You also don't memorise everything from passive learning; you need to be active i.e. try active recall (Notion AI tends to work well with this sort of revision style). What other revision strategies have you looked into?
