Revision Tips
These are the stages I go through:

Make a list of topics. It doesn’t matter if you change this later.

Make an early timetable, with a day devoted to each topic you intend to study,
and time off built in once a week.

For each topic, do the following steps:

Read through your notes, making a more concise version as you go.

Make a diagram or chart simplifying this further, using just key words and
case names. Colour certain sections of it. Don’t be afraid to use shapes or
symbols that only you will understand, or little diagrams. Don’t be afraid of
this process – revise it until it feels right.

Record a lecture, using the diagram to remind you.

Play it back several times. Record it again without looking at any notes.
Memory tips generally:
The brain remembers by absorbing information when you read or write, but also by
pictures using shapes and colours, and by sounds when you listen or speak. Use of
numbers, ordering, sequencing, symbols etc can be important visual clues, which can
trigger memories. Use all of these extra ways to help your brain, not just writing – or
you are not utilising your brain’s full capacity.
Your diagram (sometimes called a spider diagram) needs to offer the possibility of
different ways in, so show how things are connected with arrows, starting with the
most important idea in the centre. You can do it again if you put things in the wrong
places.
Keep work to a manageable size. Daily amounts must be achievable or you will be
continually depressed. Don’t even think about what you have to do the next day.
Use Mnemonics for case names: eg
HARd VELvet And ROYALty means TRUSTing of CANADA
For HARVELA v ROYAL TRUST OF CANADA
Or Gabriel BYRNE (& CO) stole a VAN to put a TIE IN a Hot OVEN
For BYRNE & CO v VAN TIENHOVEN
Make up whatever helps you to remember – the sillier the better. For each topic
imagine a journey through rooms in your house, and find things in each room that you
have named in this way. Use your imagination to help you.
