What your son/daughter needs to do now to ensure success in their examinations
 * Actively revise: - don’t just read your notes, reduce them, make flash cards, mind maps etc.
 * Get a study buddy. Get them to test you on key definitions in the final days before the paper. then test them as well! (Flash cards are good here as is the powerpoint “Taboo” on the wiki.
 * Learn 5 key definitions every day. (see the glossary section in the relevant subject wiki)
 * Learn command terms- there is a list of these on the Wiki.
 * Do not leave things to the last minute. You should already be undertaking your own revision now. If you start revising when you go on study leave it is too late.
 * Be healthy. You must get a good night’s sleep every night, so don’t try and survive on 4 hrs sleep. This is particularly important the night before the exam. Eat healthily and get some exercise to relieve the tension.
