Hi,
I have a feeling that the work I am currently putting in is not enough to do extremely well at GCSE. So I want the ask the TSR community this question:
How many hours should I spend on one GCSE subject per week in order to get an A* in that subject?
Let's say I don't find any subject harder than another ( I have no preference) and the amount of hours also includes homework as well as revision.
Thanks for reading!

Do as much as you can, but don't overwork yourself as that won't get you anywhere

Hi,
Remember that the amount of revision you need to get a top grade really differs from person to person, so don't compare yourself to everyone else, but by this I don't mean you shouldn't take into account what everyone else is doing. Like if you were spending 5 hours or even absolutely no time each night revising and everyone else was considerably different from, then maybe you should rethink how much time for revision you need. In order to ensure you do really well at GCSE make sure you understand after each lesson what you learnt in that lesson. Homework can recall information from that class, but doing homework alone doesn't mean you'll necessarily understand what you have learnt.
I suggest maybe taking 10-30 mins to go over what you have learnt in class from that day, depending on how challenging you found it to understand. And make sure you test yourself afterwards, which I did using flashcards.
Make the most of your mocks too, this is the best time to work out what revision techniques work for you and once you have found out what they are, you can apply them to almost all the tests you'll sit, even in later life.
Best of Luck!

the revision time you need really varies, but we were told to spend about two and a half hours each night doing Homework and revision. Workout what you find difficult and what you don't and then spread out your time according to this!
