If I was in that situation, I would try and finish off my other subject notes first and start past papers. Then, when going back to school, I would get some tutoring or just lessons from your science teacher. If you have some decent revision on every other subject, then you can dedicate more of your time learning the sciences and really understanding them which will put you in good stead for exams.
Thanks a lot for replying back and giving me advice. I feel less worried about it now.
Lol I did but i thought you were making your own notes and revising at the same time. I didn't know you were writing everything down. I am also looking at the specification for aqa Science but i just keep it on my ipad or computer so then i can check it out when revising.Also i highlight the things i need to know on my text book

Oh right haha
I just write it down so it is more accessible for me and it helps because it's colour-coded.

Oh yeh i saw your post , really like your handwriting Some people print it out as well but there is like tonnes and tonnes of pages How long does it take you?

Do you literally just copy down notes and then memorise them? I also use this method of note taking but have been criticised by others who say it is not proven to be as effective as other methods. Nevertheless, it works for me

Depends on the subject. The sciences have been a real pain so far. Still on Chemistry and Biology took me near enough two days.
But subjects like Business don't take too long for me to do (just over a day).

Well, considering it's been covered in class before, I already understand them so a lot of the time it is just memorising them and refreshing my memory. It's working well so far haha
As long as it works for you, nobody else's opinion really matters haha
Yep the sciences are really long How long would you revise for science?
Once I really understand the whole of the spec and then have done all the past papers available. Not sure how long that will take exactly. About 6 days for writing down the spec, then about 3 or 4 days to memorise the spec and finally doing a couple of past papers a day. Considering there are about 10 for each science, it will take roughly 2 weeks.
So in total, just over 3 weeks of solid revision. Then of course, close to the exam look over the spec again and retry some past papers
EDIT: I won't be doing the sciences in one big block. I'll be splitting each subject and doing one subject at a time
