Are you doing GCSE's or A level? Plus, when are your mocks?
I always say focus less on the amount of time you're revising and more on how/what you're revising. There are people who do no revision whatsoever and come out with 7s and 8s and people who constantly revise and come out with 6s. Make sure not to burn yourself out by working too long. Figure out how long is the perfect time for you to revise and just stick to it for each subject. Assuming you dont have after school clubs, on weekdays revise altogether maybe like 2 hours (you can split it into 4 30 min sessions), and on weekends like 4hrs? and then during/after easter pump it up a bit. Good luck :smile:

ok i would wait until you get your results, but do light revision until you get them. When you get your results, spend more time going over things you struggled with. you should aim to start recapping everything in prep for past papers around late february, March time, but thats up to you, everyone learns at different speeds.
