Revision timetables?

What does yours look like?

At gcse my timetables had 2 subjects per day on school days and 3 subjects on non-school days. I always had a day off which was Saturday usually so i could relax and do art coursework on that day but during mocks and actual exams i think Friday was my no revision day. I would revise each subject for 30-45 minutes minimum but sometimes ended up doing a lot more than that if i wanted to/had time.
Im not revising for my year 12 mocks and so study at least 30 minutes of each of my 2 subjects per day plus complete at least one wider reading activity from what im currently working on.
Hope that helps 🙂

Hi @saxophone,

I based my revision timetable on what I’d been taught at school that day. So if I had chemistry and biology on a Monday, I’d revise those subjects when I got home. I’d go over the exact topics we covered in class because my tutor mentioned that your brain remembers things better if you review them on the same day. Then on a Tuesday, if I had chemistry and physics, I’d focus on those instead. I followed this pattern throughout the week, which helped me give all my subjects equal attention and kept me from falling behind in any of them.

I would revise 2-3 hours per subject in a day, but honestly it depends on how I felt that day.

Hope this helps,
