With further maths I do past papers, and with Geography there are many useful YouTube channels with summary notes- and for case studies I go over my textbook x

Not at all! I think I would’ve been more worried if I had studied on those days because I feel like I would’ve burnt out. I feel like as long as I keep consistent I’ll have nothing to worry about :smile:

Heyyy
good luck with GCSEs xx
this is quite similar to a GYG which a lot of people on here have (https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=7398188&p=99523300&page=21#post99523300 - this is mine) and it's so useful to keep track of your progress
How are you finding the exams so far

Thanks for the heads up! My exams have been going pretty good so far- it’s just maths and physics that I was terrible at lmfao

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with you. Revising is a boring and time consuming task- nobody wants to do it.
My advice is to just do 10 minutes of focused revision, then take a break away from screens. If you can do 10 minutes of pure focused revision 6 times a day- that’s already 1 hour. Don’t force yourself to do any more than that if you don’t want to. If you can get into a routine of doing 1 hour a day, you can maybe increase your focused time to 20-30 minutes!
Hope this helped and most importantly, try not to stress!

Biology- ~4h30
I turned up late to the school bio revision accidentally (😭)

Extra notes:
I did some biology when I got home and realised there’s a massive gap in my Ecology knowledge which I need to fill.
I have also done the second half of a maths paper, I got 33/40 (pretty good by my standards)

Overall, a pretty good day, even though I didn’t quite reach my goal of 6 hours. Before bed I will go through my flashcards 😽😽

thanks, its just that it doesn't feel like i'm doing enough... i used to be able to focus for long hours with breaks in between but now i just can't seem to focus. the most i can do is an hour which is basically 30 mins of different subjects combined but i feel like for subjects like math that isn't enough

Update #4
4hours (2H Chem, 2 hours phy)
+ 1 hour maths

Notes:
I had to work for 3 hours in a cafe, so when I got home I was shattered. I still managed to push through though.
Chemistry: did Reaction and Organic Chem topic revision
Physics: did forces revision only as I’m putting off doing magnetism ( 🤢)
