I can't seem to kick in properly.

I know that I generally have a vague idea of what the questions on about, so like I know most of the content but they are the odd questions which just end up literally killing me.

Yep, find as many as you can and start working through them, but gradually, so spread them out between now and your exams

For my A-Levels I probably did about 3 hours a day and then did probably 6 hours a day in the days leading up to the exams.
For my law degree I have to revise for about 4-5 a day. Why oh why.

After graduation (yes, we graduate for 2 weeks before taking As) I pretty much did 10-12 hours a day, and after the exam itself, depending on the exam the next day (e.g. written paper, etc.) I'd go to Starbucks with a friend and camp there for about 12 hours. This was pretty common not just in my school but pretty much for everyone in the country taking their As. Of course, sometimes you get distracted/tired so nothing goes into your brain so I'd estimate maybe 8 hours for every 10 I was there, and 9 for every 12?

Have too much homework to even think about revising. I'm not good at revising anyway have this weird memory where I can only access the knowledge & put stuff in when I'm in lessons or exams which is sort of unfortunate but I tend to get all B's anyway so I should be fine.

During these Easter holidays I'm currently aiming for 8 hours a day for my 3 AS levels. The minimum I do is 5 hours. If I don't do much revision in a day then I end up being awake all night feeling guilty and wanting to work :sigh:

Ok so I haven't started yet as I still have school and I have damn art to do. Perhaps I'll try and do 5 a day (probably wont happen though).

Threads like these make me want to die.

definitely doesn't represent the majority, I don't think. Doing 12 hours of revision a day is absolute madness

Like 2-3 hours but panic is setting in so it's going to be in the region of 9 hours. Hopefully. I will try but let's be honest, it won't happen... *cries*

I'm panicking right now reading all of these posts about revising 8 -12 hours a day... I'm about to go on a holiday to the US for two weeks so I think I'll only get 2 hours in a day if I'm lucky... AHHH!
