Arghhhhh, It's Exams Again, The Topic We All Prefer Not To Talk About But The Truth Is They're Coming So You Better Be Prepared. Your Whole Life Isn't About Exams But To Get The Job You Want You Have To Get Some Good Grades. If That Means Doing Your Homework Without The Tv On, Give It A Go, It Might Make A Difference.
Believe It Or Not, What You Wear Can Effect The Way You Revise. BBC Revision Says That Colour Send Out Messages Which Can Effect Your Mood And Attitude To Revision, So It's Important To Choose The Right Colours To Boost The Old Grey Matter....
Avoid Wearing Black If Revising Is Getting You Down. But If You're Feeling Cool, It'll Make You Feel Even More In Control.
Brown Won't Inspire Creativity, But If You're Nervous About Your Exams It Will Calm You Down.
Any Shade Of Orange Boosts Confidence And Creativity. Wear It To Revise More Creative Subjects Like English And Art.
Steer Clear Of Green. It's NOT Dynamic In Any Way, Shape Or Form, And Could Leave You Slumped In Your Chair Too Bored To Write.
Red Has A Similar Effect To Black, So You Shouldn't Wear Clothes In This Colour If Your're Tense Or Stressed, It Will Enhance Your Confidence.
Pink Is Soft And Gentle, But Not Ideal For A Night In With The Books.
Purple IS Good For Intuition, But Not Great For Maximising Intellect-So This Is Another One To Avoid At Revision And Exam Time.
Yellow Promotes Rational Thought And Memory Retention, So Go Bananas....
Blue Is Very Relaxing And Also Aids Your Powers Of Concentration.
Tricks For The Top
- When Tackling A Subject, Don't Approach It Is As One Big Topic. Break It Down Into Sub-Topics. It's Much Less Intimidating.
- Allow Yourself Regular Breaks And Treats - Your Favourite Telly-Slot, A Cuppa, A Twix Or Three - But Only At Allocated Times.
- Just Writing Things Down Can Help Commit Them To Memory, So Try Transferring Your Notes To Flash Cards (Little Bits Of Card). You'll Only Fit A Few Words On Each Card, But THose Words Should Remind You Of The Whole Topic, And Are Easy To Carry Around For Instant Revision Boosts.
- Stick To A Routine - If You Do Your Revision At The Same Time Each Day You Have A Better Time Of Remembering What You Learn.
- Burn A Lemon Scented Candle Or Spray A Citrus Air Freshner In Your Room To Make You Feel Revitalised. (In China Some Bosses Pump Lemon Scent Through Their Offices To Make The Staff Work Harder.)
- Stay Cam As Anxiety Or Stress Can Impair Your Memory. If You Feel Yourself Getting Seriously Wound Up, Go Out For A Brisk Walk To Clear Your Mind.
- Eat Healthily, Exercise, Regularly And Get Enough Sleep. Sounds Dull, But It Means Blood Flows Easily, So Maximum Oxygen And Nutrients Reach Your Brain.
- Visit BBc Revision It Has Great GCSE Bitesize Sections, And Also Suggests Books, Videos And CD-Roms To Help You Out. Top Stuff. Also Take A Look At Schoolsnet Which Includes Revision Tests, And Lots Of Other Cool Stuff!
The Bottom Line Is, Once You Have Finished Your Exams You're One More Step Closer To Leaving School, Some Of You Are Gonna Come Back To The Place That You Spent A Long Time Of Your Life Trying To Escape, But That's Your Choice, And Don't Ever Let Any One Interfere With That.
This Is A Dear Diary Moment!
