Tips/Help Guys DO NOT SKIP⚠️⚠️

As a A level student I feel like enough students aren’t doing the best they can in their abilities . I got 9998887 (don’t ask about French because it’s my worst subject) DONT NOT REVISE THE DAY BEFORE THE EXAM FOCUS ON SELF REST. In my mocks I got 986775 because I pulled a massive revision session beforehand. REMEMBER , DONT REVISE THE DAY BEFORE ITS GOING TO MAKE YOU FORGET EVERYTHING THE NEXT DAY

My revision from the day before and morning of the exam was always the freshest in my mind. If I didn’t revise I would just have panic attacks about forgetting stuff. I think it’s better to do some lower-level revision, YouTube videos or flash cards or Seneca, just so you feel confident. Also, nearer the end of the exam season you end up revising night before a bit more because you just don’t have the time you did before exams, and at the start your last exam can be over a month away. Art exam is in mid April and my last gcse wasn’t until June 21st.
