people are mentally stable enough to do this. after school no energy
exacly

You should be revising. Scroll back up g.
hahahhaha you're hilarious mate
welp u caught me 😳
👀👀
Thank u??? 😭😭 I still don’t want to though...
U copied this comment I've seen it before not from you
The problem isn't that I don't know how to revise it that I lack motivation and optimism so I just end up watching TH-cam videos in etempt to make myself feel better like im doing right now. Life's great.
Yeah fr I’m gonna fuck up my gcses so bad
@@airpodcase518 especially with this whole corona crisis.im gonna fuck up my gcses
yep thats me idk what to do about it
@@airpodcase518 nah bro your gonna get through it, I have my GCSE’s this year as well, just practise/ revise like an hour after school each day, maybe split it up into like 3 20 minute sessions :)
Jieun :))
I am messing up my GCSEs badly right now. My mental health genuinely makes me so tired to the point where I can't even revise properly or motivate myself to get through all the anxiety and stress of school.
update: yes i struggled throughout the year with mental health and tried several different things but this is what I got. stop giving me hate for it.

you dont have to take motivation from your friends or etc. The most powerful motivation is your mind and how good your manage it
yes!!
this is basically what im feeling in a paragraph
Can relate 😑
im feeling the exact same way bro , Im dangerously behind in Maths and its been stressing me out constantly , ik the exact position you're in , We just have to push through and some how manage
It literally felt like a personal attack when you said 'Don't rewrite notes because you're just copying the text book and adding pretty titles' 😂😂... time to change my revision method...
I felt the same when j switched it up
Doing that is not actually a bad thing... You can make notes and then learn off these notes by covering them and trying to blurt as much as you can remember. Re-writing in that way, for me at least, is effective but it's different for everyone.
samee
@@tahmidhossan9757 yeah, I’ve been revising with that method since year 7 and I’m hesitant on whether I should change my method of revision because in my opinion, I don’t see me being able to learn topics by not writing stuff down, that’s why I don’t like doing stuff like quizlet because I don’t feel productive/ I don’t actually feel like I’m learning when what I’m doing is not in physical form
@@SparkMediaProduction I'm in Year 13, and I've found that I learn similarly to you (need notes to do well). I made comprehensive notes at GCSE (for triple science and comp sci at least) using a combination of the CGP guides, kerboodle textbooks and ABOVE ALL the specification. If you want to avoid the 'copying the textbook', I suggest keeping a printout of the spec or always pulling it up when making notes - it lets you know exactly what the textbooks may have missed or more likely the unnecessary details it includes. Keep in mind this 'unnecessary stuff' is what fills a surprising amount of the kerboodle textbook. Tbh, I disagree with the idea that you shouldn't make personal notes - be realistic, most of us in class are half taking in concepts - we spend most of the time scribbling down stuff rather than understanding it. Those notes you take in class will mean little to you even if you stare at them at home - further research is needed to make it sink in unless your teachers are exceptional or you are a genius. Still, taking the time to tune your class notes according to the spec might be a better compromise if you don't like the idea of starting from scratch.
For context, I got straight 8's and 9's at GCSE, with 9's in all the sciences, and I'm predicted 3 A*s at A level (Maths chem bio).
Edit: Make sure you hand write ALL your notes - it is scientifically proven that hand written notes are more effective for long term memory and exam performance.
Wow How did TH-cam know I had mocks 😮😮
i think uk schools have mocks around the same time
@@mrpolnareff-5553 How many times a year do GSCE mock exams take place?
@Subhaan What is your exam board? Do these exam take place before the main exam period, I mean before the May/June or October/November series?
@SubhaanThat`s very disadvantageous, I mean you won`t be able to carry forward marks from the previous series because these are different exam boards. One more question, are these mock exams internally assessed or they`re moderated externally, by your exam board?
@Subhaan Thanks for you time.
How I revise or learn new content:
*Read the objectives*
*Read through content*
*Rather than taking notes i write questions*
*Upon finishing writing all the questions, i test myself (implementing active recall)*
*Complete the questions provided*
and chill!
So it would look something like this
Text :
London, the capital of England and the United Kingdom, is a 21st-century city with history stretching back to Roman times. At its centre stand the imposing Houses of Parliament, the iconic ‘Big Ben’ clock tower and Westminster Abbey, site of British monarch coronations. Across the Thames River, the London Eye observation wheel provides panoramic views of the South Bank cultural complex, and the entire city.
My notes:
What is London the capital of?
What are the 3 main features at the centre of London?
What is across the river Thames?
What does the london eye provide a panoramic view of?
This is exactly how I make my notes too! Its worked really well for me too
Thank you! I was confused on how to do it!
thank youuu ima try this
thats exactly what i do for my notes lol
this is very smart and i think i might use it. thank you :)
Its only a matter of time until this guy hits recommended and his chanel explodes.
He actually was recommended for me,
this was on my recommended and i’ve never watched a single gcse related video in my life
With people who can’t spell channel, it probably will
yeap, this popped up on my recommended list
I just got this video recommend to me.
This is from someone who’s done them and A-Levels. Revise and try and do your best to get good grades but live life also. GCSEs are mostly stepping stones. Don’t loose focus of what actually makes you happy. It’s okay to get just maths and English if that’s your best don’t feel restricted. Not everybody is wiz kid.
Hi can u help me plzz,how do u revise?because when i revise early i forget after 3 to 4 days so the only solution i have is to revise the day before exams but the syllabus is too big so i cant revise at the last minute also,i hope that u understand what i mean.
*lose
@@jessy4458 i'm the exact same :/
That last part made me feel so relieved. I only ever get maths but not the other subjects that I'm doing (a levels, maths bio and chem). Bio is just mainly having to memorise a whole lot which is hard whilst chem is really confusing me so much especially the moles part. I find maths to be the easiest subject as I understand it fully. But damn.
@@jessy4458 what always helped me was speaking out loud. Pretend you are a teacher and speak the information. Doing past papers and exam questions is always v good. Don’t worry if u don’t think it’s not all going in. COLOUR as well don’t write in black or blue pen if u can, your mind remembers colour more. Ask others to quiz and just make sure for the exam you are prepared as u can be. Just try your best. Another tip especially for essay subjects (English) it’s always good to make it seem like you know what your saying so don’t leave a question blank EVER and a bit of guessing/ waffling won’t go a miss if you are unsure. Hope that helped, good luck.

so basically effective revision is consistently testing yourself and developing your knowledge when you get things wrong until you get it right

I have never seen such a clean setup, a revision video in general and such high tech for GCSE’s.... damn

I just started school and i’m really studying , studying harder than i’ve every studied before.
It’s actually rewarding, which surprised me.
It feels good to be doing hard work.
and then when I go back on past exercises, they become easy which surprised me a lot more.
especially in maths.
:D
I summarise my lessons on a sort of Queue card, and it helps me learn.
Because the things I write in my notebook at school is a lot and I need to break it down to understand it and learn it
Good luck in your Mocks, Udoka!
I remember last year’s Mock revision, that was intense! This year I’m doing the AS Mocks on March so I will also be going hard during the winter holidays!
P&MT is a game-changer!
P.S. You crushed the sponsor ad!
me, an American in eighth grade: oh yes I would love to find out the most effective ways to study for my GCSE mocks that I totally have
Looool 😂😂
The techniques are still applicable
I’m also sitting mocks in January. I do believe that everyone has their own way of revisions. If it works for you, then it’s not ‘wrong’. Personally, I take notes to recap the topic, then I do Seneca to recap further, before testing the knowledge with Flashcards and past paper questions. That works for me, and everyone has their own way.
I got mostly 9s in my GCSEs and only started proper revision a few days before each exam, all you have to do is pay attention in class and do lots of practice questions. If you want to do well in English, studying some philosophy wouldn’t hurt 😄
yeah totally agree with this
what philosophy are you talking about because i’m struggling with english atm
hi have u got any 2019 papers?
This really motivated me to stop being lazy now - I’m also in y11 about to do mocks soon so tysm‼️♥️

@@Isaacsteponson nah he’s 17, he meant year 13 not 13yo
As someone who is now in a level and is doing criminology, knowing how to answer the history questions really help
Knowing the differences between describing, explaining, evaluating and analysing is the difference between full marks and no marks
It makes it easier in the beginning so there’s less stress on you
I love how these tips aren’t only for gcse but for secondary exams I’m general. Really helpful :)
Nice to see small youtubers like us helping young people get through school and rough times. As someone who made the mistake of not studying enough for mocks, means allot your helping the youth.
One more thing, revision sessions! My school offered after school sessions for nearly every subject and they are well worth going to and quite enjoyable. Even the most up tight teachers were up for a joke because they can rely on everyone to concentrate and theres a mutual understanding that people are there of their own choice
this helped me so much i am in Y11 and have always struggled with studying correctly. thanks so much for the video
Hey Udoka! I’m in Y11 and currently revising for my mocks as well, stumbled across your channel and its some really cool stuff, wishing you the best of luck :)

are arguably too of the best learning resources for GCSEs and A Levels on the internet.
you’re a lifesaver!! :( i wish schools taught us effective revision methods like this.. also this video is edited so well i enjoyed watching it 💗💗
Udoka, I would disagree about not making extra notes. There's a lot more information you can find in CGP books, revision guides, Bitesize etc. I would only say oversimplify as much as possible and spend as little time on them but cover the content properly. Don't waste precious time making them look aesthetic because at the end of the day, it doesn't matter as long as they're effective. After that, usually you should move on to practice papers and just understand how to apply the topic.
I completely agree, notes work best for me.
Exactly! After making these notes, you can recall them by covering them and blurting as much as you can remember.
@@tahmidhossan9757 I don't personally use blurting but different techniques work for different people.
I absolutely second this, I'm gonna paste an earlier comment of mine for any Y10's/11's/12's debating whether they should make extra notes.
I'm in Year 13, and I've found that I need notes to do well. I made comprehensive notes at GCSE (for triple science and comp sci at least) using a combination of the CGP guides, Kerboodle textbooks and ABOVE ALL the specification.

if you can remake your notes correctly/well then it is ok that's what the professor effectively said not that is was bad

Great way of showing what GCSE's are and how how badly they are misinterpreted, easy to stress out and not take in information easily. I took mine at 15 and its all about taking the time to do them, and your time management. Your doing alot of people alot of favors :D
I've been revising since summer holidays, but getting horrendous marks in the practice papers I do. Especially triple science, I have a few weeks left till mocks I'm so lost I don't know what to do anymore.
Hey, relax gcse is not that important if worse comes to worse invest in real estate cheap or expensive do it your way. Get a decent job save up well and invest. You don’t need gcse to succeed
Try different revision techniques.if u have been getting really bad in ur exam but have been revising probably a sign the revision technique isn’t working or that u don’t understand that particular topic.we are all in the same boat don’t lose hope
hey, one thing that really helped me was doing practice papers with the mark-schemes to build confidence and also so you know the exact words the examiners are looking for - hope this helped!
If you don’t already use physics and maths tutor, it helped me alot( I’m in year 12)
Go through the revision guides and make sure you are solid on the topics before you do the mire advanced ones
My technique (I am studying Biology at degree level):
1. Take notes in the class (I don't really use it for revision, unless it contains information I couldn't obtain through independent study).
2. Watch videos about the topic until you have a general idea (some concepts in biology are confusing so watching a video gives you a very broad understanding.)
3. Highlight the textbook as you read the relevant chapters (believe me there is a reasons for this, you'll see why)
4. Now take notes from the textbook, mainly from the highlighted areas (do it digitally). However, ensure the notes are cohesive and make sense. This allows your brain to understand the topic and interpret it.
5. make key words of your notes in bold and red.
6. When it comes to revising, reread notes. The bold words will help you pickout key information.
7. At the same time, do lots of practice questions.
This is SO USEFUL! I'm not doing my GCSE's yet, but honestly this has helped me so much! Your channel needs more recognition, I'm subbing :)
Listening helps me so much. When I just read off a page I can’t remember at all, but being told it, everything just sinks in. When I learn something I either ask my teacher to explain it to me like a story, or my friends, or I even record myself doing a storytelling of the information. I did that for my biology mock, I remembered everything. When I got into that exam hall, all the questions were things I had revised and knew like the back of my hand.
Everyone has different learning methods. So if you struggle with reading-learning, you should definitely try other formats.
I didn’t even get to sit my exams because of COVID-19, I just got my predicted grades/mock grades. I’m so glad I revised and actually tried in my mock exams 😅
His channel is so growing so much that he got a sponsorship
Ur vid was sooo helpful man. Really helped me understand and make sure I know what Im doing is right and not unproductive so good to hear from someone same age as me. Good luck with ur mocks! Also I struggle with English too lol
Thank you so much for this. I am in year10 and I think that the best way to achieve is to start revising after the end of each topic and go back to it next year, when I do my actual GCSE's. I really want to do well! Thank You
I’m in uni and despite being that bit older and have done GCSEs, I found this video useful and it deffo gave me a bit of an ass kick to better my revision - well done man
Bro...... why is this just now in my recommended two days after finishing mocks!!
This is my first ever video I’ve watched if yours, the first time I’ve come across your channel and I’ve subscribed! Love the revision tips
Aah I got a heart
surprisingly, taking notes has actually helped me a lot. like i’ve moved up 3 sets, from just doing it every night.
It’s like you knew I had my triple science mocks first.....it’s getting straight to the point for me
I got that course form udemy !! £200 down to just £13 After using ur code , and soo much videos on there , can’t wait to start using it
Hope you enjoy it!
I also do religous studies, my teacher taught us a method to get full marks in a 12 marks question,
A - point
B - evidence
B - back your evidence
C - challenge your point (why would some people disagree)
D- decision making (state whether your point is a weak or strong argument)
it can be also used in a 5 marks question which would be : ABB AB
I used to struggle doing the 12 mark question, I would not get more than 5 marks but using this method it helped me to pick more marks.
For a twelve marker to get full marks our teacher tells us to basically do a balanced argument which goes likes this:
A paragraph supporting the statement-
Point
Evidence
Explain
Link back to point
A paragraph that argues against the statement-
Point
Evidence
Explain
Link back to point
And then finally a conclusion expressing you own opinions as well
So basically two PEEL paragraphs and a conclusion

Listen. SYLLABUS is one of the most important keys to do good in exams.
Wow, great video. Reminded me a lot of when I did the Irish equivalent of the GSCEs. You have a bright future if you keep up this good work!
Honestly a strategy I suggest is learning "why" something is the answer that it is, once you know why, the rest should be year 6 general knowledge, this works substantially better on subjects like Math, History, Physics, Chemisitry and Biology. For the rest of the subjects not really, you just gotta remember them.
This dudes gonna get a 10 I’m his GCSEs
All I did was not study until February, and I just started copying out notes from books and online resources. Managed to get As and A*s (7 and 8) because of it.
Keep working hard. This will be sooo helpful in the future, especially for A Levels.
You never got As and A*s stars from making notes you were just listening in class and some people get grade As without revising
@@djbss6667 homie I used to get Cs and Ds because I was doing mindmaps and got bored of it.
Note taking and adding colour to the page is good for visual learners like me. I'm not naturally smart in terms of academics nor did I use any other method (tried flashcards and quizzes in yr 10 and didn't work).

Just try and UNDERSTAND as much of the content as possible- preferrably exam practice, rather than rushing through endless notes and not memorisng anything. Try not to worry too much, and ensure you take time out for your mental health & wellbeing. I'd rather you try understanding 50% of the content properly rather than rushing everything and not knowing any of it.

wow, wish I was as motivated as you when I did my gcses, I only realised its worth at the end and cramped all my studying 1 month before the exam 🤣😭 unfortunately I did the same for year 12, now I’m dying at year 13 🤣. Kudos to you young man, you’re off to good places. I don’t know whether to be sad or happy haha. All the best!!
What did u get in ur GCSEs
@@lost0605 all a's except for art lool that shii was draining, we had to do fill 50 pages for art and i did 10-15 of it LMAOOOO my art teacher was, no matter how she loves me, hated me for that lmaooo im sorryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
@@gcasello494 that's pretty good for someone who cramped
I'm in year 10, and I've got end of half term assessments and I'm terrified but I'm determined to do well. I really want to do well in my maths and science but I don't have the printer to do practice questions, but from tomorrow I'm going to talk to my teachers for guidance. Great video, highly motivational 💪🏼
Good job keep at it
finally someone my age who uses science-based revision methods. This is so rare!
Hahah going to be making more if people like them
Love the video thank you for your tips. Been struggling to find the motivation to start to revise properly and all the youtube videos I had previously watched were from uni students but watching a video on someone taking their GSCEs and also being in the UK really did help me to feel more motivated to start to revise properly. Fingers crossed i can hold onto this feeling for a bit more than 2 hours lol :-)
My problem is that i’m just not motivated to revise and would rather just do other things like watch youtube, and my first mock is on Friday
go study💜
enter willpower *now*
Anyone else hoping that they keep our exams going in the summer? I just know I'm going to do better in the real exams than in the mocks. Lit had like 8 weeks to revise everything from year 7, try learn the shiz we missed when were off for 6 months and try learn the stuff we were supposed to be doing in year 11 anyways 😂😂 its a pisstake x
Yeah same I really want to do the real exams and have time to properly revise. Especially because there is some information I want to cover for GCSEs before I start a levels to at least have a foundation
@@udokafintelmann6803 God yeah, I've had a tough time revising recently anyways due to a lack of desk so that's been awful. Luckily got one this past weekend so I have some hope for the rest of mocks these next 2 weeks. Thank you so much for the video btw, it really has helped and it's rather relieving to get revision tips from someone going through the same stress - shows that the revision tips may actually help x
How are you finding everything with the corona situation? I know some people are overwhelmed with all the extra stress we have to go through, having to prepare oursleves for the worst x
I follow near the same timetable and and revision method as you. It’s like watching myself on a screen.
These methods helped me in passing my tests in the past week. Very good channel, will definitely blow up very soon🔥🔥
Do you have chemistry decks of C4 C5 C7 C8 C9 that you can share with me? i have a test on monday for anki flash cards, if so I will be very grateful.
Lmaooo I'm so lucky mocs got extended my another month and couple of weeks just gonna start revising to hope I get all 6s or 7s just gonna look at pass papers for all sciences and maths and cgp books + my gcse science :)
Oh my god thank you TH-cam! I have my mocks in December and I know if I don't revise right I'll do utterly shit.
That curve at 3:10 made my day. Can;t do that on my best drawing days!
his voice is so soothing
I'm going into year 11 this September and this video really helped me with revision strategies (especially for science) and all my other lessons- thank you very much :)))
I'm an o level student and just saw this video:)
My mocks are just up needed so e revision tips so I just clicked it 🤞
Tip for GCSE students: there are GCSE books available on the internet for free that might boost up your revision. I'm an o level student and just scored A* grade in these subjects just cuz of that books and additional information:)
Hopefully all of ya found it useful
Anyways good luck for your mocks😎🤞
Hi, I’ve done my GCSEs (kinda - thanks COVID) and the one piece of advice that you mentioned but didn’t stress on.. you MUST mark your past papers.. this may seem obvious but some people just do the questions and think they’re done, but honestly, if you don’t go over them there isn’t much point doing them in the first place - don’t waste your time. Good luck :)
oh btw, for English is would highly recommend Mr Salles on TH-cam, he's much better than the other English TH-camrs
Bro you’re blowing up this was In my recommended😁
Udoka, this video has really helped me. I have mocks in January. Should I use google calendar to make a timetable? thingy. And, I need help with English literature and language please make a video on it. It will help me a lot in my GCSEs. The thing is i get grade 3s in my end of topic tests. I haven't found any way to solve this problem. Pls reply to this comment and give me some tips on English language and literature. Thanks have a nice day.
In the video I mention the tips for English as well as getting the course. Google calendar is good as well I like it
