Previously I am in year 10, I’m 14, and its worrying me, i have so much anxiety about doing my GCSE’s, it sounds silly but I don’t know how to revise! I just don’t remember ANYTHING, I keep thinking I’m going to fail and I have got older so fast. Am I really close to my exams? Am I not a child anymore? Plz help!

Nothing to be afraid of. Revision is just a method to get what you have studied into your head and out onto exam papers. You can learn and practice this. The more you prepare then the better you will do.

Im quite comfy with the value of: 1. Planning and using a timetable. 2. Finding the best method of revision that is most effective for them. 3. Making best use of available resources.
1. Having a revision timetable. 2. the value of doing past papers. 3. Working with others if you find that helpful. 4. The value of breaks and exercise to relieve stress rather than driving yourself into the ground. 5. Understanding what revision methods work best for you. 6. Using variety of study methods to keep revision fresher. 7. Using mind maps. 8. having something to eat and getting to the exam room on time.
I think they all contribute to effective revision and are benchmarks I would and have used myself.
Try to do information recall- read something, and answer questions on it. This makes your brain think of it as information to be recalled- which is something that you'll do in an exam.
While the GCSE's are close, this is the perfect time to revise. Which I should be doing, incidentally, instead of giving advice I'm not following on TSR :P.
