Revision timetable

Yo,

Here is a timetable, starting yesterday... if you can cover everything on this timetable (i.e. do a little work every day) you will cover everything in time for the exam. Make notes if you want but focus on exam questions - bring them to me and I'll mark any work you do.

Overview of the course:

-Your revision should be spaced from now until the exam- not all just crammed in during the last few weeks

-This lets you do less revision on a daily basis and works inline with the process of your memory to assist you in remembering

-Revision includes- Consolidating/summarizing notes (not copying word for word), testing yourself, planning exam questions, working on your exam style

-You don’t have to follow this plan exactly, it is an example

-This will take you more time at the start (i.e. first time revisiting, summarizing) but then each successive one should be quicker and focusing on testing and using your knowledge
