Have consecutive study periods for the same subject or spread them out?

I don't actually think working ahead is a good idea from my personal experience.

Back when i was a hard-working, keen year 8 student, i finished the entire year 8 curriculum in the summer holidays.

Think I focused too much on it, started working on year 9 stuff in term 4, screws up exam because i forgot like half the stuff learned earlier in the year and got a B+, despite A+ for every assessment prior.

Yeah, that's a bit much haha.
But I think there's really nothing wrong with working a few chapters ahead so long as you maintain what you learn.

Do you think that working ahead over the holidays is a good or a bad idea guys?

I find it can make me feel more overwhelmed with the content. Especially with Bio, because I find Bio challenging in comparison to my other subjects.

I'm exactly the same, except with Chem. Need to supplement what I already know during this break, then get into what's next in the chapters when I get back to school.
