Revision Classes

You should try to do as much as you possibly can in the next two weeks before the exam - it's your last chance to show off what you know. And you know a lot!

Start NOW - don't try to cram the learning in at the end as it's not as effective. Try to do some Media revision EVERY DAY.

Make sure your revision is ACTIVE. Don't just read the information but do something with it - take notes, highlight, summarise, create mind maps/revision cards, etc.

Then, and this is the most important bit - TEST YOURSELF, and keep re-testing until you know you've learnt it. This is the best, most effective form of revision.

It's really vital you do as much PRACTISE as possible, ideally under EXAM CONDITIONS, because you need to get your timings right and to see if you really can remember the material.

All essays you do (Section A or B) will be marked by us at a special drop-in session we're running on...

Monday 3rd June, periods 1-4. 
Come to D block and find us in either DF05/6/7/9 and we'll give you feedback.

Then, the following day, we have a pre-exam revision session on

Tuesday 4th June, periods 3-4 in DF05/7. 
You'll get an hour with each of us as we cover last-minute reminders for both Section A and B.

Good luck!
