So before i used to just sit and read textbooks to get in all the information and then i would do past papers. I used to find this really tiring and boring so i changed my revision method.
Basically I'll use the specification and textbook to make a mind map for each topic, filling the entire page. I then highlight the key bits and then throw the mind map away. my logic behind this is that, i will need to revise the topic again anyway which will include making another mind map. I also do exam questions. I take Psychology and Chemistry.
My question is, is this an effective way to revise? should i keep my mind maps and revise from those or keep making mind maps on the same topic?
