WRITE DOWN THE MAIN POINT H. REWARD YOURSELF I. SET YOURSELF TARGETS HOT TIPS FOR STAYING COOL AT EXAM TIME 0. I It’s always good to know what you’re aiming for, so that you know if and when you get there. By having an aim for each week, or even each day, it will help you check your progress and show you if you need to change your plans. Page 3 1. Rather than having to work through masses of notes every time you revise something , try noting down things you want to remember on a piece of paper. It doesn’t seem as much to learn that way, but it makes sure you don’t miss out anything important. Once you’ve learnt the main points, rewrite them on another piece of paper without looking at your notes. 2. “If you don’t know it by now, you’ll never learn it for tomorrow.” Everybody says it, but it’s probably true. Don’t stay up all night studying. You’d be better going to bed at a reasonable time, so that you can wake up fresh and alert on exam day. 3. There’s nothing worse than being disorganized. If you have a plan and stick to it, you won’t end up cramming all your revision into the last few hours! Make a list of your exams and what you need to learn beforehand, and then draw up a timetable covering all the topics. You can then work out what you need to do on a weekly basis and when you are going to do it. 4. When you reach each of your targets, give yourself a treat – you deserve it! It could be a drink, a short break to watch your favourite TV programme, a phone call to a friend – anything you enjoy. Test yourself, from time to time, on a topic and if you do well, give yourself a special treat based on how well you have done. 5. By now you will probably have discovered the method of revision which suits you best. But every now and then it might be helpful to try a different method. You could try working with a group of friends , or using a different book which covers things from a new angle. Whatever it is, just try something different occasionally. 6. Some things are almost impossible to remember, so you may need to do something unusual to help you remember. Try writing them down in large letters and bright colors and sticking them on the fridge, on a mirror or on the bathroom door. Try recording them on to a cassette and keep play it back to yourself – on a personal stereo if you’ve got one! 7. Not too many people like exams and most of us get nervous. But if you’ve followed your plan and put the effort into revising, then there is not need to worry or panic. Hopefully these tips will have helped you. Give it your best shot – that’s all that anyone can expect of you. Your answer 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. III. Fill in the gap with ONE suitable word (2.5 points ) THE RECYCLISTS What do you do to help fight climate change?
