Whether you’re going to college, sixth form or going into work after you finish school these qualifications are vital for your next steps. They might not be your favourite subjects but getting a grade 9 to 4 this year will open up so many opportunities in the future.

#4 Post-it trail

Post-it notes can be easy to memorise. Stick them up around the house where you walk about on your morning and evening routines.

#5 Start Early

Take any pressure off by starting early with your revision.
Think of all that nagging your parents and teachers won’t be able to do because you’re one step ahead.

#6 Have a break

Take short breaks, but not too many! About 10 minutes every hour will help keep your brain
fresh and engaged.

#7 Muscle memory

Don’t just read your notes – by writing them out you’ll give your brain another opportunity
to remember what you’re revising.
