How many hours are you revising each day?

This thread is making me feel so much better about my lack of revision and motivation haha. I've had words with myself tonight and set my alarm for 8am so I can have a shower then start revising at 9. The hardest part is knowing where to start and actually starting, once I've done a bit I always get fully into it and can revise for hours. I made a revision timetable and everything but haven't stuck to it at all :frown:

My lecturer hasn't mentioned anything about our exam that we have on the 20th January. All I have got is several pages of notes on each topic but nothing to do it with. First university exam, are there past papers? who the **** knows my lecturer hasn't said anything about past papers or essay questions that are likely to come up so i don't even know if past papers exist for university exams. Tried to Google to module in hope of finding something but nothing. I'm clueless to be honest. This university clearly hasn't prepared me.

I might have to do the same and set an alarm! I think it's just the thought of actually starting that's the hardest part...and getting out of bed 😄 I normally am able to get into it and do hours but lately I've been doing 15mins then ending up on YouTube, TSR or Twitter. I think I'm going to have to put my phone in a different room again 😕

About six hours a day. But that's only because I've got Jan mocks otherwise it'd be four hours on most days.

These post have made me sigh with soooooo much relief that I'm not the only one doing A2 Jan mocks and is absolutely de-motivated to start!! I kinda started with c3 yesterday by making one revision sheet on one topic.....but that's taken me like two days to do and it's only functions!! :L
I think we're all feeling demotivated because it isn't actual Jan exams so our brains aren't taking it as seriously as they did last year :/

I'm just about to start revising when I've dried my hair and had breakfast. Where I'm going to start I have no idea but I'm sure once I get into it, it'll be fine. I do have to say that I'm absolutely ****ting these mocks even though I know they aren't real! I'm gonna have to put my phone elsewhere too, such a good time to start liking someone and texting them 24/7 isn't it haha. I think were all demotivated because we've established that A-levels are horrible and we all have loads of exams cramped together in summer so you dint even wanna think about them

I've been doing 3/4 hours a day. Is that enough? I have 5 exams.
I've got around 20 exams in the summer :frown:

Well I assume you haven't got a Assistant headteacher who threatens you with BTecs if we flop. Not saying that BTecs are bad of course.
