    Make sure while revising that you take a break ever 25 minutes as it has been proven that after that amount of time studying without a break that your mind stops taking things in properly so its practically useless.

    When I revise for exams, I have a couple of GCSE's this Summer but my main ones are not ill next year, I buy flash cards. You can write just one fact you need to remember on each card. Then you can colour code those cards into different topics. Then you can concentrate on just one fact at a time instead of trying to learn a whole page of boring crappy textbook talk. CGP revision books are brilliant as well, I wouldnt have passed my statistics GCSE without it. Good luck!

    I'm doing A-Levels at the moment, I feel your pain =(

    I make colourful spider diagrams =D I study psychology and we get all these different memory techniques, and apparently it's really helpful to make colourful spider diagrams with pictures that would jog your memory. It works for me, I've been getting As and Bs with this technique. You should try it, it's fun too =D

    Now stop procrastinating, woman, and good luck!!!

    Apparently revising stuff from yellow cards helps you remember more...
    And doodling, writing stuff down, colours... Stuff like that helps.

    I find it impossible to revise! I'm not mitivated for anything either.
    I don't have to live up to anything past a B. But my teachers are still adding a lot of pressure to us all. D:
    Good luck with your revising and exams!
    I hope some of that stuff helps, I can't reivse though so... ):
