Not really. It's good that you are revising now, seeing the amount of workload they give us.

It's totally unrealistic and even if it were possible, it would be entirely counterproductive

Second that

Just because you're sat with your book open doesn't mean you're revising BTW :banana2:

You won't cope with 16 hours a day. You're telling me, You'll revise for 16 Hours still manage to eat, sleep, socialize (If you will), have a shower and do all you need to do in 8 Hours!?
Nope.
I'd advise you spend a Maximum of 6 hours a day. 1.5 Hours for each subject (that's for 4).
Split the hours into the morning, afternoon and evening, and you'll find it soo much easier. Although the time spent is very subjective and varies from person to person.

It's really good that you want to put a lot of time into revising this half term, but that is way too much. 8 hours is not enough to sleep, eat, socialise, attend to personal hygiene etc. For 4 subjects, 2 hours for each will get you to 8 hours a day. I really wouldn't even advise that. It is a lot. You'd be better coming up with a timetable so you can still spend a good amount of time revising, but not too much time. I wouldn't exceed about 6 hours, personally. It's half term, you're entitled to go out and have a bit of fun!

Wtf? Are you doing gcse's? DO NOT revise for 16 hours- you'll burn yourself out and you will NOT remember anything! Just prioritise the subjects you find hardest (if you're doing gcse's). Besides, the amount of time revising varies from person to person- some people need 2 hours, others need 6 hours...

By the way do you actually do ACTIVE revision or do you just stare at your textbook (which is certainly NOT revising!)...
