Having a revision plan is important, but you do not have the time to spend hours making one! Below are timetables you can print/save and apps which you can try out. Be creative with your timetables - be as specific as you can be when allocating sessions. Using post-its on top of plans may be an easier way to filter down what you are going to focus on each night.
