    Thought I'd make this for people to share how they are revising and for others to get ideas and info too.

    Yeah I have a Folder with things I have to learn/ all my notes.

    I have revise wise Maths and Irish, Rapid Revision Geography and essentials unfolded for science.

    Also I am doing P1 Q1 2011 - 2005, P1 Q1 2011 - 2005 etc etc, I find this really helps!

    I've started to study over the last week! For maths I am doing each year by each question i.e. 2011 Q1, 2010 Q1, etc. I have Revise Wise and I look at examples and what steps are taken when doing some questions. I then close it and try it out on rough page and see if I can get it on my own. If I do then I transfer into my Exam Answer Hardback (highly recommend). I also do the same method with marking schemes - DO NOT JUST COPY IT DIRECTLY.

    Doing history revision too. For history I've been doing People in History essays as we're doing them for homework too, and as I have moved schools recently I have to catch up on the history topics for 3rd year section. When doing Section 4 (people in history) I read the whole chapter on that topic, e.g. write about religious reformer. I would read the whole section on the Reformation. I find it easy to retain the information for history, even just by reading my book.

    Haven't started revising science yet ...... I really need to though!! :(
