Pretend you're teaching other peoople and speak out aloud whilst revising, talk as if there is someone there and repeat what you're saying.

Use Post It notes - write pieces of info you need to know on them and stick them all over the house: in the loo, by the kettle etc. It does work!

I use revision cards which despite a lot of groaning from my friends about how boring they are, actually work for me. I go through my notes, and make clear, key points on the cards. These jog my memory, so for a big subject like geography, I might write 'Coasts' and then 'deposition' with a definition. Then I revise from my class work, and read through my cards every day as a reminder. This works really well as long as you don't cram the cards too much. The point is that they are clear and the info is there at a glance. Also, the night before just relax, you won't learn anything else at this stage! Good luck!

Everybody has their own way of revising but I revise by writing notes, pictures etc on coloured paper. Keep it as simple as possible. I then just use these notes to revise from, dont even look back at class notes or books. Also try some practice exam papers so you know what kind of questions you are going to be asked and you can find out what you need to revise a bit more on. Don't cram the night before an exam... chill out! These tips work for me but like i said everybody is different.

Find out what works for you. Visual processing- use mind maps. These don't work for many people. Aural processing- use mnemonics and rhymes i.e. for music- every good boy deserves fruit etc. I revise best by reading my notes, highlighting relevant bits, and then doing lots of past papers.

First of all try not to make too many notes as it wastes time and if you've written it down once in your book you don't need to write it down again. concentrate on the areas you don't know and try not to overload your brain with the same thing over again.

When i was in year 8 i remember my science teacher telling me about revising for tests. he said that you could write notes and then write a essay from those notes, i didnt think this was a great idea at first but then i tried it and it worked fairly well i remembered most of the stuff i had to. also little pop quizzes work aswell you could ask someone in your family to write one for you or have a friend or teacher make you one. hope these help
