yeh cos you havent actually learnt it yet and the revision guides dont teach it to you properly, its more of a step-by-step thing to help you remember once youve learnt it, but if you havent learnt it yet then theres no way youre going to remember it just from a revision guideQuote:

Thanks, i just want to know some advice so i know what i am doing next year when it comes to revising for my gcses. :)
well it really depends what works for you. apart from the revision we did in lessons, i didnt do any revision til a few days before each exam, basically once one exam was over i started revising for the next one and so on. i find cramming helps me a lot personally cos then i dont have to remember for long periods of time and it seemed to work well for my gcses. what i did was not revise for my mocks which i did and when i found out how much i didnt know i decided that cramming would be ok, but if i had done really badly in the mocks and hadnt known anything then i might have revised earlier. but really its different for everyone, so just cos i personally found cramming worked well for me it might not necessarily do for youQuote:

but everyone is different and you will find your own way of revising.
Ok thanks. :) Yeah your right everyone is different and i will probably find my own way of revising. I will probably revise over a long period of time to be honest that's what i did with SATs last year so hopefully it will work for my gcses.
I just wanted to know how everyone else revised. :)
