Revising for GCSE

Hi there, any advice for keeping consistent with revising because I tend to procrastinate.
Some people like to make a timetable. You could dedicate a certain amount of hours each day/week at a specific time to build a habit.

When actually revising, put your phone or any other distractions safely out of the way. Maybe even try studying in a different location since if you revise in the same room that you relax in you might not easily get into the mindset to revise compared to if you study somewhere else. It's worth a try, lots of people find this helpful.
Making a revision timetable can be helpful. I found a paper one (printed calendar) held me to account better.

Timer apps, like yeoplutuma or flora . Basically add your subjects and it'll js call you out because it's documenting you doing nothing but also very rewarding when you do something.

Also remembering you aren't just revising for these mocks in autumn you revising in prep for may June mocks. If you can't be bothered to start revising now for these .Don't be bothered later for gcse because cramming isn't making a difference if your on the pathway to getting 4s n 3s 🤷🏾*♀️🙏🏾
