People who got 7/8/9s in their GCSES, when did you start revising?

Hello, so I'm aiming for 7/8/9s in my GCSEs
I started light revision in January, but I procrastinate so much it's actually awful.
It's almost the end of February and I feel like I'm running out of time.
Am I too late?

If it makes you feel any better I started revising a couple days before my exams started, but that’s because I worked hard in lessons so didn’t find I needed to do lots of revision out of class:smile:
So, it's not about "light" and "heavy" revision.

Spaced retrieval practice, quizzing - the best bet. Just make a bunch of quiz cards now and then go through them until you know everything. Facts are the basis of everything. Skills are groups of knowledge.

Just make quiz-cards, quiz yourself and then if you get it right, put it in one pile - wrong goes through the other. Go through the wrong ones more.


Simples.
