Some revision sessions may clash. who have a clash must attend the revision session for their next exam. Top Ten Revision Tips. Short bursts of revision (0 60 minutes) are most effective. Your concentration lapses after about an hour and you need to take a short break (-0 minutes).. Find a quiet place to revise - your bedroom, school, the library - and refuse to be interrupted or distracted.. Make sure you don't just revise the subjects and topics you like. Work on your weaker ones as well. Use the information from your teacher.. Make your own revision notes because you will remember what you have written down more easily. Stick key notes to cupboards or doors so you see them every day.. Rewrite the key points of your revision notes; read them out loud to yourself. We remember more than twice as much of what we say aloud than of what we merely read. Test yourself or get someone else to test you. 6. Use different techniques. Make your own learning maps, use post-it notes to write key words on, create flash cards. Record your notes and listen to them on your phone or tablet. Ask friends and family to test you. Use highlighter pens to mark important points. Chant or make up a rap song. 7. Practise on past exam papers or revision tests available on the web. Initially do one section at a time and progress to doing an entire paper against the clock. 8. You will need help at some stage, ask parents, older brothers and sisters, teachers or friends. Ask teachers to clarify points you are unsure and ask them how to revise. Use websites specifically designed for revision. 9. Try not to get stressed out! Eat properly and get lots of sleep! 0. Believe in yourself and be positive. If you think you can succeed you will; if you convince yourself that you will fail, that's what will probably happen.
