It made me

Really Happy

How I did it: I spent time in lessons and at home going through my mock exam papers to see where I needed to improve. These were the topics I would focus on for my revision. I talked to my teachers for help with questions I had more difficulty with. They gave me advice on how to improve my answers. I then went to my local library at the weekend to work on my revision. The atmosphere and environment was perfect for getting work done and I found I could concentrate better than when I revised at home. I read through my exercise books and textbooks and made concise notes on the main points. Writing things down helped me remember everything. I could then read these notes later to remind me of what I had done. I also downloaded podcasts online, most of which were from the BBC bitesize website. These helped make sure I remembered some of the more important points for my exams. Shortly before the exams, my friends and I tested each other by asking each other questions that we had been told  could come up on the exam. We could correct each other and expand on each other's points, so we learned a few extra details that could help us get a few more marks. Read how I did it… 11 months ago
