Sociology GCSE Revision: Y11
General Revision Advice

• Revise in small, sharp sessions; little and often is the best rule of thumb
• Before you begin revision, sort out your notes
• Read through all your work and make sure that you understand things
• If you have problems, ask for help
• Ask for extra notes if you need them
• Use the school shared files system and download questions and notes
• Decide your learning in order of priority and concentrate on the question topics that you know will be on the paper
• Get plenty of sleep
• Write down notes; the process of writing will help you learn
• Record notes on to cassette tape, and play them back to yourself
• Relax as much as you can because stress hinders learning
• Take regular exercise to keep your brain ticking over
• Buy one or two nice pens that flatter your handwriting. Have one you like and one as a spare. Neat papers will please the examiner.
