Some question I have about revision that some of the member a bit older than me might be able to help me with.
- Should I revise EVERY day or should I have days doing nothing?
- How long roughly should I spend revising a day? I have been doing an hour a day but I don't know if it will be enough
- Is there any point revising for my RE exam?
- Should I just stick to revising one subject per day or more?
I am just after peoples opinions here because I'm not quite sure about my revision. Let me know what you recon please. Cheers.

GCSE's critics are right in a sense although you have to work hard to achieve the top grades anyone who fails to record over 6 A-C passess should be very embarrassed about themselves, it doesn't take much effort and a few of them are passable with out revision

I am only revising on weekdays that way I can unwind on the weekends. I have a total of 8 subjects to revise for however I am not revising for English, Art, Computing and I am barely revising History.
How long roughly should I spend revising a day?
You should only revise about 3 hours a day with half an hour intervals between each hour.
Is there any point revising for my RE exam?
Nope, unless you find it hard but I personally find RE a breeze.
Should I just stick to revising one subject per day or more?
Yeah, I revise Chemistry on Monday, Maths on Tuesday, French on Wednesday, German on Thursday and History on Friday. This leaves my weekend free.

If not, I cant help.

Thats a pretty good plan really, get your mum to make me one :-p.
I know I have to revise more for things like maths, science and geography because I arent as good at them. I don't need to revise English and History much because I am good at them and remember most of the stuff I need to know.
I have been revising an hour a day for the past 2/3 weeks and doing practise papers. The next 3 weeks I will be at school so can only do a few hours a night and a couple of hours on a weekend too. I have about a week study leave where I will do LOADS of revision but my exams are nicely spread out so I can revise solidly for a subject for a few days which is pretty handy. Cramming does work, I got decent grades in my mocks from simply cramming the day before.
I can never revise on internet sites unless I uninstall msn messenger as I will ALWAYS get distracted so I have to use revision guides and be in a different room to a TV, CD player and computer.
Hopefully I will do decent in subjects even if I dont exactly ace the exams because I have good coursework grades which obviously cover a lot of the final grade.
Do GCSE's play a majpor part in future employees decision or is it just school propaganda? I will be doing A levels and God willing an English degree too, I think they are seen as more important than whether I passed GCSE science.

My friend was in a car crash on the way to one of her GCSEs. She passed without taking the exam. Of course for this to work you must have performed well in class and coursework.
you dont have to you can just blame it on your freaky finger..
