Hover over the revision timetable and click on the download icon to get your own copy of the revision timetable below. You can then edit it as much as you want and add in the subjects you will be revising!
1) Prioritise topics and subjects. Think about which subjects you are strongest at and which are your weaknesses. Use this to decide how much time you should give to each subject-weaknesses should get more time than strengths!
2) Split subjects up into topics. Instead of just writing 'maths' in a box, could you focus on algebra for one hour, and ratio for a different hour? Instead of writing 'English', could you look at poetry one hour and Shakespeare another? This will help to keep your revision more focused
3) Position the topics you find hardest when you know you work best. For example, you might know that you are your hardest working straight after school at 4pm. Put the topic you know you are struggling with most at this time so you know you will get maximum output then.
4) Use technology to help. If you use the calendar on your phone you could set up your revision timetable on here so it's always with you to check and tweak if necessary. You could also do it on a spreadsheet (like above) and save it to your one drive so you have it with you as a reminder. That way if you are in school, and know what you are revising that night, you could ask your teacher for some work on that topic.
5) Colour code your timetable. Use a different colour for each subject so when you look at your timetable you can quickly identify where each topic is.
6) Factor in plenty of breaks. After each hour of revision, have a break. This will make sure you don't overwork yourself! Do something fun in this time to give yourself some time to relax.
7) Leave some of your revision slots at the end of the week blank. This gives you some flexibility so if you know you've found something particularly hard you can go back and revisit it again.
