Hi @S_5050

My advice for staying consistent is to make a realistic timetable. Make sure to include breaks and things you enjoy, as well as studying. Try to include a variety of revision activities, I found this made my revision more interesting and so I was more motivated to continue. When planning your timetable, maybe make a checklist of everything that you will need to revise prior to your exam.

Hope that helps!

Yeah I have been revising but it’s hard to make sure how I’m revising is actually effective or not

Thanks you so much Sophie the only problem with breaks is that I can get distracted so I don’t like taking breaks but I will try to do I don’t burn out
