Easter: 6 hours - 2h per subject
College day: 3 hours
I don't have study leave

look yeah, people are probably doing around 6-8hrs+... what techniques work for other people may not work for you, but personally know all the content do past papers, know the mark scheme and look at the examiners reports to see where people went wrong.

I go for a shorter, more intense revision session. Maybe 3-4 hours a day of a single subject is fine for me, however others prefer to work for longer.

I thought 6 hours a day was almost too much! I'm thinking of doing some days 6 hours and others 5, if I do too much (9 hours) I think I will be less likely to take information in. How many hours do you revise?

I'm not sure if they're being serious about 9+ hours, but considering i'm awake for only 15 hours a day, i think 9 hours or more is slightly too much.

What do you think of 5-6 hours a day?

How many hours would you spend revising?

The whole notion of asking someone 'how many hours..' is stupid. It all depends on how much you have done so far.

How many subjects do you do? and do you spend an equal amount of time revising for each subject?

Maximum I would do is 7 hours, that's because I get too tired and put less effort in though.

Asking 'how many hours' is not stupid at all. I just wanted an idea as to whether I'm doing too much or too little. If you think this post is so stupid then go somewhere else :smile:
