Can someobody help by telling me 3 good revision techniques and 3 exam techniques?

Question

Thank you!

Answer 1

Revision Techniques:

1) Use a different coloured pen for each subject so that your brain doesn't muddle things up;

2) Do "Mind Maps" (like spider diagrams) which are less scary than pages and pages of notes and easier to understand too;

3) Play classical music on in the background - it's proven to help concentration.

Exam Techniques:

1) Read through all the exam questions BEFORE you start, checking instructions and just making sure what's in store,

2) You don't have to answer questions in order. You can answer something easy while you try to work out a difficult question.

3) Stay calm and pace yourself. Decide how long to spend on an answer eg. 60 mins for 10 questions = under 6 mins per question ( to allow plenty of time for checking over answers).


Good Luck.

Answer 2

Three revision techniques

1. Take eligible notes, which include hints to the small details that the professor mentioned, but do not spend all the time in the lecture in only taking notes down. LISTEN to the lecture, this helps a lot in the revision,
2. Studies have shown that if you revise within 24 hours of the lecture you will retain the information for a longer time than if you do it later. So revise every lecture in the evening, and try to remember what the lecturer said as you go through your notes.
3.Revise your notes once again within 7 days of the lecture date, this will ensure that the lecture is stored in the permenant part of your memory.

Exam techniques
1.READ THE EXAM before you start writing, identify problems that you can easily do and problems that you are going to have to devote more time.
2.Start with a couple of easy problems to boost your confidence, then spend some time on attempting the harder problems, but make sure you leave enough time near the end to finish all the problems that you were sure you could do.
3.Leave some time at the end of the exam to go through your solutions, especially for math based exams, so that you can pick out any silly mistakes that you may have made.

Good luck

Answer 3

Just write things everywhere you go, when you wake up one by your alarm clock, on bathroom door, on the fridge. You don't even have to read them everytime, and you just get little reminders that stick.
Also leave good time and dont concentrate too much on one area.
Exam techniques just relax and remember that you know it all it is just a matter of getting it written down ... I know everyone says it but read the question twice before answering. It is really easy to answer the question wrongly.
Good luck

Answer 4

For languages, I always find that thinking in that language and writing down any words you don't know and finding them out later. Exams I just say enjoy them! It's a good time to sit down and work on your own without anyone disturbing you and you can go home after! Doing past papers is helpful too.

Answer 5

eat breakfast, stay calm, get enough sleep
revise for a long time before the exam, the day before the exam dont revise just relax, dedicate time 4 revision dont do lots of things at once.
