Just mixing with some ideas recently about revision at school so i wondered what you did/suggest.

At the moment my best idea is sticking lining paper on the wall and going to £land to buy a multi pack of board markers and go on an educational scribbling spree. Any better ones than this?

I realize it depends more on how you learn best but just fishing for ideas

Well I used a Pocket PC from School that helped me.. I just wrote down all my ideas etc.

Also, at the time of my GCSEs my room was being decorated so i used my markers to sribble down my revision.

A good old fashion notebook is just as good

notebook....damn it you never think of the simple things do you!?! Liking that idea.

haha. Yeah man, I used a dictaphone in classes too (SHowing my real geek side here) But yeah, really helped a lot!

Although I failed miserably getting Cs and Bs.. I needed A - A*

C is good.. but for the course i wanted was A*

But anyway, if you havent got a dictaphone use a mobile/cell phone

Like revision techniques....e.g. some people stick post-its on their walls/mirrors of things they find hard to remember, some people record things and listen to them..etc

Just wondering if anyone had anything different that they have done that i could work with

Revision guide books != me.
