How's The Revision Going?

local study was fun for me it was where i lived so i ran off and went home during the middle of the site visit hehe xoxo

it was good yeah except loads of my friends are from town so we had to sneak them back into town by the time we should have left school.... a mission in its own right xoxo

I'm not doing GCSEs... but am hijacking Am feeling a severe lack of motivation towards AS revision... Am currently too wrapped up in panicking about History c/w Well it's sent off April 30th so I'll still have nearly 3 weeks 2 revise French and English, then a week to do law, then a week to do history. Luckily my exams are beautifully spaced out.

I wouldn't worry- everyone gets lapses in motivation sometimes. You can't keep it up the entire time, at certain points your brain gets knackered and you just need a break. It sounds as if you're well on track all the same; instead of worrying about lack of motivation, take some time to totally de-stress, have a day of total relaxation then restart refreshed

I actually got into gear and started revising this week. While I did some revision in the Easter holidays, it wasn't as much as I had planned and I had some difficulty starting again. It just felt like I always had homework to do and when I didn't have homework, I just wanted to relax. However, this week things eased off and I started science revision and prepared for a German test. Some of my subject teachers have set us tests so that is really helping motivate me!

I haven't done any revision since Thursday but I'm going to catch up on all my homework tomorrow, do some French and German work (my orals are close and I'm getting scared) and tackle history because it is worrying me as I think I have LOTS to learn. It's definitely my "biggest" subject.

I'm thinking of buying English literature revision guides from Amazon. Any particular "brand" I should look for?

Nicki, I can totally sympathise with being too tired to revise. I'm only just overcoming my bout of tiredness and getting some work down. I could still do with more energy though!

Although I am good at History, I am finding it very hard to revise and panic when I see the questions . I can't revise today, we'll be out all day.

So how are the AS levels going What's law coursework like?

I know what you mean. I'm having a serious can't be bothered day today, plus I'm tired, which doesn't help. I've done 2.5 hours though, which is better than nothing, and yesterday I did 4.5 hours as well as an hour of French oral practice at school. Oh well, I still have tomorrow before going back to school on Monday. Unlike you, my exams are not beautifully spaced out; I have the French oral first, then a week until my first English, but after that I have my second English, both sociology and both French spread over 3 days! Then I have about a week and a half until history.

Calm down Nicki seriously.... just read your text books its the best advice i can give... but dont stress out over them if you wish you can repeat if you dont get the grades you need but good luck and hopefully things will settle down for you!! xoxo

Poor you Tis pure luck o' the draw with the spacing, and for once I got lucky.

What exam board are you doing for history again?

I just can't motivate myself at all. Hopefully I'll be able to start on April 30th when my history c/w goes off, which should give me *just* enough time

I'm with Edexcel for history, as well as French and English lit. The history exams are both 8th June, English are 19th and 24th of May and French are 26th of May.

I haven't started revising yet. I'm starting to panic.
