Tips please?

Ok so I have a few questions:
- How should I go about preparing for SACs? What exactly should I do?
- My school already provides us with a bound ref type thing with questions and practice exams and space for our own writing. Should I use this or my own bound ref? If I do make my own, what should I include in it and is a 240-page exercise book suffice?

Thanks

Do you have access to past SACs? If so, just leave them for the moment:

- textbook questions. exhaust them, especially you have Essentials, because the questions are pretty goddamned good.
- the brilliant thing about this is you have instant access to help - AN

If motivation is lacking, try play a game with yourself, like Who wants to be a Millionaire? Man I'm so silly sometimes.

As for the bound reference - it's what YOU want to put in it. Example problems - difficult problems you came across and the solutions to those, exam tips, things you don't want to forget, an error log, anything. Hell, you could even put an English essay if you really wanted to. It's YOUR reference. It helps YOU.

Thanks for that Thush I probably will get to the point where I end up playing a game with myself haha! I'm still stuck on whether I should make my own or just use what the school gave us though :S

Dang. I was hoping for more than one reply!

In my opinion, it depends on how comfortable you are with the topics. I wouldn't usually re-write notes, but considering we do them in class as a whole, why not. But if you're going to do them in your own making them yourself I find that a waste of time. I'd rather spend that time doing something else and getting the hang of things that you dont understand instead of dwelling on notes.
Do you think your school's notes are good?

Last year, I used the bound reference as a tool to consolidate the material I learned in class. When I went home after a maths lesson, I would write everything I learned in my bound reference.

Thank you for your question and for asking about some tips.

One thing that you might considering is PLANNING your revision.

Set yourselves some goals. Try to achieve them.

One thing I would like to draw your attention to is a TIMETABLE. A daily timetable. This might better help you to arrange your time.

If you have not been sticking to your commitments, let me remind you of something very beautiful. Its about change. Change can be instantaneous.

I hope I follow these advice as well.
