Spring Term Revision Timetable 2013
The following table gives suggested dates for revising each of the knowledge
booklets you’ve completed so far. You may find that you need to spend more
time on areas that you find tricky, (or less time on areas that you find easy!)
so you can change the dates to suit yourself. Remember though that you will
need to go over everything in the end!
Tick the boxes as you go along!
(You only need to get help if you come across anything you don’t understand)

Spring Term Revision Timetable
The ink is hardly dry on your prelim paper but you already need to start
thinking about revising for the final exam.
Overleaf you will find a revision timetable with a list of sub-topics to be revised
each week.
For each sub-topic you should:
 Read the knowledge book carefully, making sure that you understand
it.
 Learn the facts in the knowledge book.
 Do the relevant past paper questions without the help of your notes if
possible. You can check your answers by using your notes and the
marking scheme (available from your teacher)
 Make a note of any questions or notes that you don’t understand and
get help from your teacher. You can arrange time with him/her either
during class or at lunchtime or after school.
Revision will have to be done in addition to your normal homework and there
may be some weeks when you can’t meet your revision target. Just do as
much as you can – there are two weeks timetabled at the end of term for
catching up if you fall behind.
Remember the more studying you do throughout the term the easier it will be
in May.
