this might just help me, but blurting (writing everything you can remember from a topic or sub-topic) then going over your notes and filling in the blanks helps me. Then you can blurt again in a week or so and see how much more you can remember. Obviously not a short term revision method, but builds your knowledge over time to prepare you for the actual exams :smile:

for short term I just read over my notes or look at pre-made flashcards (which I only have for like half my topics I need to make more 😭). another piece of advice is to create revision materials for yourself in time for mocks/exams so you don't have to make them whilst you're in exam season and you can focus on actually learning !

I don't know if you're in y12 or y13 but honestly I wish I started doing this in y12 tbh because I'd be so much more prepared now 😭 hope this helps!
