Study Skills – Revising for exams

It’s finally time. Your exam is about to begin, and you’re feeling the pressure. Actually, you’re not feeling bad at all. Why? Because you’ve been revising like a pro. You didn’t even need to cram. Instead you looked at old exam papers: to learn what kind of questions come up, to get an idea of the possible topics, to learn the marks available, and how long for each question. Looking at specimen answers also helped. And best of all you did this early in the term, not one week before the exam. What else? You made a plan. And you even stuck to it, well done. And you used a range of techniques just right for you. Here are a few ideas. Go on, pause the video and look them up. You also looked after yourself. You ate well, slept well and even did fun things between studying, helping you bust stress. Even if you did procrastinate a little. I said: “a little”. Ahh, and here we are again. The moment of truth. Just make sure you revise the right subject. Good luck!
