Make a 'revision timetable' and always let your family know when you are revising.
Here is a link to a template but feel free to design your own:
Record yourself reading notes and occasionally listen to them instead of reading.
We don't actually learn that much from reading, however listening is more effective.
Allow yourself some fun-time each day to relax...and make sure you get a good 8 hours of sleep each night.
Put your ohone away at least 30 mins before you go to bed, or at least turn blue mode on.
If you stuggle to sleep, try apps like Calm or Headspace.
Study in a quiet place away from the TV and computers, that is both light and comfortable.
Don't panic if you feel a bit nervy. A certain amount of nervousness actually helps you perform to the best of your ability, producing a rush of adrenaline that helps you to feel alert and focused.
Take a 5 or 10 minute break every hour and do some stretching exercises, go for a short walk or make yourself a drink.
Eat well. Good brain foods? Wholegrain foods (cereals, wheat bran, wheatgerm and whole wheat pasta). Blueberries. Blackcurrants. Broccoli. Tomatoes. Oily fish. Nuts
Energy drinks and sweets will not do the trick, they will give you a sugar high and then make you crash. Be careful of caffine.
Ask friends and family to test you. Also attend any teacher revision classes – as teachers will know better than anyone what will be in tests and exams!
Build in rewards for your revision eg: your favourite snack or using social media
