| Tips for the revision period:
1.Leave plenty of time to revise so that you don't get into a situation of having to do last minute cramming. This approach will help to boost your confidence and reduce any pre-exam stress as you know you have prepared well.
2.Develop a timetable so that you can track and monitor your progress. Make sure you allow time for fun and relaxation so that you avoid burning out.
3. As soon as you notice your mind is losing concentration, take a short break. You will then come back to your revision refreshed.
4.Experiment with several alternative revision techniques so that revision is more fun and your motivation to study is high.
5.Don't drink too much coffee, tea and fizzy drinks; the caffeine will 'hype' you and make your thinking less clear. Eat healthily and regularly; your brain will benefit from the nutrients.
6.Regular moderate exercise will boost your energy, clear your mind and reduce any feelings of stress.
7.Try out some yoga, tai chi or relaxation techniques. They will help to keep you feeling calm and balanced, improve your concentration levels and help you to sleep better.
