  1. Time Management

  2. Exams start on Wednesday 7th January!That is only a few weeks away!

  3. Studying can be difficult… • Thinking about your studying can be very scary! • It can seem like you have a HUGE amount to do, and in a very short amount of time!

  4. Study Plans… • Everything is easier when you have a plan to follow! • When you are well organised your studying will be so much more efficient and it will stop you from trying to cram everything in at the last minute!

  5. What are the benefits of a study plan? It makes your goal manageable – so it’s more likely to happen. It saves you time - because you always know exactly what you should be working on. It reduces stress, because you don't need to worry about remembering everything that needs to be done – following your plan means you’re always on track.

  6. Creating a Study Plan - Tips… • It is important to be realistic about how much time you have! There is no point in planning 5 hours of revision for English after the exam has happened! • You MUST remember to include breaks and rewards for long periods of study. No one can study effectively if they pull all nighters! • You should know when your exams are and what subjects to prioritise first! There is no point in study French if your English exam is the NEXT day!

  7. Creating a Study Plan - Tips… • Your study plans should look different from when you are at school and the Christmas Break. • If your plan does not work out, don’t worry! Just be realistic and re-plan! • Keep your study plan somewhere you see every day so that your family can help motivate you to stay on track.

  8. Creating a Study Plan - Tips • At the start of a study session, set yourself clear goals. Ask yourself: • “What do I want to achieve today?” • Make a short list of the tasks you want to complete. • Tick each one off as you work your way through the list. • It’s an amazingly satisfying and effective way to get things done!

  9. Creating a Study Plan… • Know your deadline – now work backwards from there. • Work out what you have to revise, how you will do it – remember to be realistic! Set weekly goals! • You don’t become Chuck Norris after one hour of Karate lessons! Just as you can’t learn all of Standard Grade Biology in one hour! • Break down each subject into manageable tasks/topics.

  10. Creating a Study Plan… • Don’t plan 9am – 10pm I will study Maths. You are HUMAN and your brain needs breaks! Try taking small (10 min) breaks regularly • Use a pencil – the best laid plans can always change • Create a reward system to keep you motivated • If I study all day Saturday, I can go to the cinema with my friends on Saturday night

  11. Weekly Study Plan

  12. This timetable allows for 61 hours of study per week • That is too much and you would exhaust yourself by studying for all of that time! • However, it lets you plan for lots of study and breaks!

  13. Do you have any commitments that mean you can’t study at that time? i.e. mass? • How many hours of study per subject do you want to do each week? • Are you spreading out your study evenly? • Are you including breaks so you give your brain a rest?
