@Annaboth I feel your pain.
Yesterday, I felt like I could not be bothered to do any more revision!
It is difficult to revise for long periods of the day, but when there is limited time to revise this can often be the only way to cover most of the material!
( I am in that situation now.)
If you can try to pace yourself, it will make your revision more manageable.
Perhaps, instead of thinking about how many hours you spend revising, you can split your revision into tasks.
As you complete each task, you will feel like you are achieving something and will be inspired to do the next one.
Be realistic with how many tasks you can and do and the size of each task, but this may be one way to break down the revision.
Stay hydrated, eat well, and get up and move once in awhile.
I have a dance playlist which helps me get up and move after a long time sitting at my desk. I find it helps me focus better after I have moved about and stretched. Sometimes, I also play some of my favourite music in the background when I am revising to help me stay attentive.
Revision is tough! Try and vary your revision if you can. Make posters with key info, practice answering questions, go over memory cards, try to think of what they could ask you and how. Try to come up with mnemonics to make it easier or a bit more fun!
Revision is for a season, once the exam is done, it's done!
All the best,
