Ways to Do the Best GCSE Revision




You will only waste time learning the things that you found easy to complete in the exam. It may seem hard but doing what's difficult and improving on that will get you the grade that you want.
If you have been disappointed with your GCSE results and are considering a re-sit to get the grade that you want then here are some important tips on how to get the most out of your revision!
Get away from distractions - Revising for a re-sit is always hard, because everyone else has finished their exams and no longer have to spend their time studying. Get yourself away from anything distracting that will put you off your work. Set aside some time each day for revision. This way you can still have fun and go out with your friends but you are also giving yourself the best chance to get the grade you want in the re-sit.

· Have regular breaks - Having regular breaks is good and makes revision less daunting and challenging but be disciplined with yourself! Make sure that 15 minute break doesn't turn into a whole afternoon of TV.

· Set yourself targets - Setting yourself achievable targets is a way of showing yourself the progress you are making. It can also be used to help you be clear on what you have revised and what work you still need to do. When you achieve a target then this will encourage you further as it gives you a sense of achievement.
· Be GCSE Specific - Look at the revision methods on offer and choose the one that is bets for you when you are learning. Make sure that any internet revision sites you use are GCSE specific as well as specific to the subject or at least the exam that you are sitting, this will give you the best chance to get high results when you take the exam again.

· Look at past papers - Don't take anything for granted when looking over any past GCSE papers but they are a good revision tool if you can get access to some through your school. You can see what topics or questions seem to continue to come up in the exam papers throughout the years and make sure you are able to answer similar questions if they should also appear on the re-sit.
