Well it\u2019s time to read the following blog, then get offline and stop the procrastination!<!--more--><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Below, learn how I revised for my own A-Levels, as well as my top tips for how to get through what can be a very stressful time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Find out YOUR way to revise<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone works differently! It is so important to find out what makes your brain tick and consider what kind of learner you are. Do you engage with visual sources, such as mind maps or are you more of a systematic learner who works through bullet points? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My brother Calum and I have both conquered the hurdle of A-Levels (a very stressful time I may add!) so I wanted to offer an insight into how we both revised differently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have always been a very visual learner (perhaps due to my creative interests), so I love a good mind-map. I found it easy to connect ideas through this method and also found it very effective at memorising facts quickly (vital for my Geography A-Level). See below a recent note-card for a current module I\u2019m doing on Art History. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/myrevision-1024x577.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4020\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/myrevision-1024x577.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/myrevision-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/myrevision-768x433.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/myrevision-370x208.png 370w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/myrevision-770x434.png 770w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/myrevision.png 1805w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>During A-Level revision, I put post-it notes all around my house with Geography facts on! I associated one case study with my wardrobe, the next with the bathroom wall (I\u2019d look at the facts twice a day whilst brushing my teeth) and so on. I found this a very effective way at memorising all those key facts and figures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My brother is the complete opposite! He takes on a much more systematic approach (perhaps due to his considerably more mathematical brain)! See below an example of his recent revision material for his Law Conversion Course. For him, a plain document separated into sections with lists of bullet points is how his brain learns things. We are all different so find out what works for you and STICK TO IT!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"654\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/calumnotes-1024x654.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4021\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/calumnotes-1024x654.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/calumnotes-300x192.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/calumnotes-768x491.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/calumnotes-370x236.png 370w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/calumnotes-770x492.png 770w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2019\/04\/calumnotes.png 1691w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discover where you work best<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to find out where you are most productive! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cI can\u2019t revise in my room. My brain knows it is where I relax and chill out, so I\u2019m never productive in that environment. I have to get out the house and go to the library, a place which I associate with working and a place with no distractions.\u201d &#8211; Calum.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Whereas I am quite adaptable. I find if I work at my desk in my bedroom, I can concentrate and focus. This is something I know my brother wouldn\u2019t be able to do, so consider where you can focus effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Remember to take a break<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I always had something to wind down and destress, whether that be simply taking my dog for a walk or going to rehearsals for my latest show.

Due to this, it is really important to schedule your time and work out when to revise what. Remember to prioritise tasks and put your breaks on your timetable and STICK TO IT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Adapt for different subjects<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It may seem obvious but\nremember your revision technique will most likely differ between your subjects\nand the different challenges they represent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, for my Maths A Level, 90% of my revision was spent repeatedly doing past papers. This was the most effective method of revision for me, as I gradually realised specific areas that I was struggling with (Vectors and Integration were a nightmare for me) and then I could do specific revision for the style of questions that I regularly got wrong. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Past papers were a great way to see my progress too, as gradually my marks went up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, for my Geography A Level this involved remembering a lot of case study information, which is completely different to the challenges of a Maths Exam. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Geography, I created lots of revision cards and mind-maps to help me memorise various case study facts. I then got friends and family members to test me (remember, this is an important part of ensuring it has actually gone into that brain of yours!). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Remember that it will all be worth it in the end<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your hard work will pay off.
