Successful revision techniques
Essentials of revision:
* Prepare for yourself a good set of notes as foundation for your revision.
* Practise in recalling things,answering questions,assessing answers
* Revision needs to be an active process.Passive reading is not enough.
* Revise throughout your course, cross check the lecture and reading notes regularly.
* Do not miss classes before exams. You may miss out teaching between the lines, revision work and hints on what may be covered.
* Do not embark on loads of new reading.
* Plan your individual working patterns
* Omit something as revision topic only if you really cannot get to grips with that topic, and it will take too long to understand it, it would be worth relatively few marks/ it's very unlikely to come u
* You should aim to reduce the bulk of your lecture and reading notes into revision notes that are short, punchy, portable, and give pointers to possible answers for exam questions.
* Revision notes should consist of very concise summaries.Use Flash Cards - They should contain minimum amount of information necessary to trigger recall of what they have learned.
* Remember that our brains work much more effectively when seeking out answers to questions than from passive reading
* Skim over your notes about a topic, making notes of key points or paragraph headlines as you go.
* Then read back through thoroughly searching out supporting information for the key points.
* Go on to test yourself on what you have read, maybe by making the chapter heading into a question and seeing if you can answer it, using brief notes, diagrams.
* Check out your answer in the text, look for any omissions.
* Alternatively, test yourself by answering questions from previous exam -RightExam is a rpositary of exams conducted in MPC papers.
Answer yourself sincerely:
* How many good points have you made?
* How many have you omitted?
* Have you answered all the questions?
* Is your style OK?
* Working on past papers also means that the format will also become familiar to you, and so less intimidating. | | |
