Revision

Hello, I am currently in Year 10. In about 3 / 4 weeks I have mock exams for all of my chosen subjects. I have been revising now since the beginning of 2024 but nothing I have revised has stuck and now I'm worried I am going to completely fail. Does anyone have any advice on how to revise the following:

English Literature (EDUQAS) (Predicted Grade: 8)
English Language (EDUQAS) (Predicted Grade: 8)
Mathematics (PEARSON EDEXCEL) (Predicted Grade: 5)
Science (AQA: TRIOLOGY) (Predicted Grade: 6)
History (PEARSON EDEXCEL) (Predicted Grade: 6)
Geography (AQA) (Predicted Grade: 6)
Music (AQA) (Predicted Grade: 5)
Computer Science (OCR) (Predicted Grade: 6)

Kind Regards.

Good predicted grades!
Maths: Practice questions. Go to websites like Corbettmaths and Mymaths
Science: Practice questions AFTER learning content. Learn content by flashcards. Learn the mark scheme.
Compsci: LEARN THE MARK SCHEME!
Good luck 🙂

My advice is to try different revision methods as everyone works differently!

My experience:
Sciences - summarise bits of the specification with the textbook + review notes overtime (e.g. Every 2 weeks) to memorise them. Make use of videos online to fill gaps of knowledge!
English - watch analysis videos and make notes (e.g. Mrs Rumsey). Moreover, practice more writing to increase writing speed for the exam.
Maths - past papers! Do many and make sure you go over each unit’s practice questions to fully understand.

Good luck!! Wish you all the best :biggrin:
