Best way to improve grades is using Traffic Lighting and then focusing on amber topics.

Hey! Nice 👌 how’s physics revision going generally?

Eh, not bad - I really don't like paper 2 compared to paper 1 but I'm managing.

Hello everyone!

I'll quickly introduce myself, I'm iive and I do Maths, Further Maths, CS & Psych. I think the best method of revising is practice questions; easier to identify your weaker topics & hone exam technique as well

Currently working through some Smart Revise Questions for the Data Exchange (1.3) & Boolean Algebra (1.4) units of computing

Oh my goodness Malteasers are the ultimate study snack! I’ve got a chocolate chip cookie here keeping me going 🙌

And I definitely think so - do you use snacks as more reward or to keep you going? I’m always so torn 😂 I want to eat it all straight away

Hey iive! Thanks for dropping by :biggrin:

Another advocate for the practice questions, nice!

Amazing, hope your revision goes well today - are these topics you enjoy or do you need some motivation?

Thank you! Boolean Algebra is quite a nice topic since it's looking at logic gates and binary, etc. 1.3 is ok but there's a lot to remember 🥲

Not much tbh, I'll probably check whether this youtuber I watch, Stephanie Soo, has posted a new MOTS video; her content is so entertaining 😂

I am making a start on a sociology paper. It's an AS paper and I do the A-Level, but I still find it useful to work through the AS papers to consolidate knowledge :work:

Hiya!
Awesome - hope revision goes well today 😊
Ahh that’s great advice - short and crisp notes sounds *chefs kiss*
I love a past paper personally!

Thanks

Haha! I try compiling them from the beginning of the year. Doing it towards the end is… 😬
Past papers do the job well! :yep:

Welcome to the third general session of TSR Study Together – STEM vs Humanities!
This is a social and supportive place to study alongside other students and keep yourself motivated

You can find more info on how it works here and it’s open to everyone!

So to kick off, let us know your goal for this evening's study session and introduce yourself if you haven't already. @Evil Homer and I will be checking in throughout the evening and we'll be handing out the rep points to attendees tomorrow

Today's icebreaker is: What is the best method of revising?
Good luck all!

This is the first time I've actually been here on time loll, I'm going to do as chem past paper (maybe 2 if I speedrun it). I think the best method of revising is past papers definitely, or maybe blurting
