My exams are starting from this week but I am just curious as to when people started revising for GCSE?
At the moment, I feel like I'm the only one who is a bit chill and starting revision like a week before. I mean... I do revise and I am focused when I do revise but I don't know how people revise like a month before?? I usually forget it all .. I think cramming sometimes works for me. I normally revised like the night before for my mocks and got A/A* and some Bs... (im not being cocky btw).

I started revising the subjects i was not as confident with around 1 month before, but that is because i had revision lessons when i had finished the course
I think it shouldnt be a problem when you revise, as long as you know you're prepared for the exam, it shouldnt matter

How do you guys leave it so late? I was fully prepared for exams a month before exams. Though granted I did flop my A Levels, but screw it I'm doing what I love right now, robbing wall street.

and i tend to forget if i revise that early, but i guess that's my fault.
however, i do not think this is the right technique for everyone.

Usually I revised a few weeks before or less for any given exam. With some it was a matter of days. Well, with Welsh it was a matter of one night.. I got mostly A*s and a couple As.

i crashed like 2-3 days before which occasionally is fine, but wouldn't recommend it because that messed me up in higher english this week

Hey - I wouldn't worry if you started late. Honestly I started late every year and came out with a really good set of top grades! It's just about making your revision efficient, and effective: writing notes out again and again won't cut it. I made a video about the revision techniques I used (i'm now at uni, LSE), so hopefully it could help you out!

I'll be making more revision sort of videos too so let me know what you think or subscribe if you wanna see the others when they come out
