How can I revise?
One of the most effective ways to revise is to produce flashcards and use them to help you revise.
A flashcard usually has a question on the front and an answer on the back.
On the right is a QR code which can be scanned to show you what flash cards are, how to make them and how to use them, but there are some outlines below:
-
Turn the information you are trying to revise into a question.
-
Write a short answer on the back – make sure it isn’t too long or it will be more difficult to remember it.
-
Quiz yourself on it. Repeatedly. Until you start to learn it.
-
Come back to that knowledge a few days later - do you still remember it? If not, repeat the process.
As well as flash cards, there are also other tips and tricks to prepare for your mocks in the 'how to' guides below:
