what are the best ways to revise if you have a short attention span?

•

I found I revise best listening to music - I make a long playlist so I'm not distracted by my phone when I skip a song. My teachers always said turn my phone off, I stick it on Do Not Disturb instead.

•

I also have a different drink and chocolate when I revise, maybe it's 'trained' my brain into thinking of it as a reward?

Definitely allow yourself to have breaks when things feel harder, so easy to beat yourself up over needing a lot of breaks however if you're distracted you won't get as much done! Everyone works differently, remember!

•

Take notes in different colours.

•

Use sticky notes and stick them around your bedroom, so you see them often as you move around the room.

•

If you revise using past papers, try doing one high-mark question at a time, or one section of low-mark questions (if that makes sense), as opposed to the entire paper at once.
