How to start Revising.
Revising is not first time learning, although for many it is.
Stage 1
So stage one is to read through your course book. Most students don't have any notes, or notes good enough to revise from. Choose a topic and read through the section you have decided to learn.
Stage 2
Now re-read the section. What are the important things?
Stage 3
Write these down as a series of bullet points. This is your notes to revise.
Stage 4
Look at each of these bullet points in turn. For each do this.
Read the bullet point then read the text in the book about this.
Stage 5
Close the book
Read the bullet point and write down everything you can remember ( writing the stuff down helps it go into memory so don't skip this. It doesn't have to be much.
Stage 6
Check what you wrote and compare it with the book
Stage 7
Repeat 4 5 and 6
Stage 8
Go and find someone
Get them to test you.
It works.
