Typing as revision????

I'm just wondering does anybody else type stuff up as revision and do you think its a good idea??? I know everyone says writing stuff up makes it stick in your brain better but honestly its quicker to type, not everyone has the time, and in my last psychology mock exam I decided to type out my whole psychology exercise book and I only lost 3 marks on the entire paper :smile:

Thankss!!!!!!!

Typing does help... I feel like its better than switch things up. I even used my phone to type up notes, and send them to friends or revision group chats. Remember, revision is individual, so if typing things up works for you, continue to do so.
