Best way to revise Unit 3?

Hey guys!

Holidays are approaching real soon, and we've completed Unit 3 already. I'm planning on spending the first week of holidays to familiarise myself and get ahead of my class with Unit 4 content, and use the second week to intensively revise Unit 3 so that when exam time arrives, I don't have to spend as much time on Unit 3, trying to refresh myself with it.

So I was wondering, whats the best way to go about it? What are some good ways through which I could revise the whole Unit 3 content? I really need to work hard on revising as my SAC marks haven't been the best (58%, 68%, 70%, un-known) for the 4 unit 3 SACs. I'm aiming for a 35+ and am in need of ways through which I could really understand and get the content in my head.

Thanks!

Just relearn your weaker areas. For me, holidays are holidays - that means no work :)

You must be incredibly confident if you're not going to do any work during the holidays....? You're right in that it is important to get rest, and rejuvenate yourself, go out etc. I'm not denying that, but you have two valuable weeks in which you can catch up, get ahead etc. So, whilst each to their own, I would recommend at least doing something :p

In terms of revision, I'm actually running a workshop on macroeconomics these holidays if you're interested in coming siddhartharora. Feel free to message me about it :)

I didn't mean to come across in an arrogant way. I'm just super burnt out from everything this term :P

Term 3 holidays are when things start to become serious in preparation for the end of year exams. Some people like to get themselves with a headstart in unit 4 during term 2 holidays and that's fine. Some people prefer to "chill". It all depends on the individual. Just focus on what is best for yourself.

I just realized my comment fairly heavily implied I thought you were and I actually wasn't trying to say that at all, so sorry if that was misleading. As I said, each to their own, and I understand that you're burnt out, but I think it would be wise to at least do some work (even if you take a week off then gently ease in the second week or something like that).

Maybe try something different during the actual school term as well? Like for me, I always took Friday night as my sacred 'no work' time during the week unless I was really busy. Just a thought :)
