The most IMPORTANT step in exam revision ✅💯🧠👩🏼🎓 - WHAT IS TIMED PRACTICE? ⏰ This is where you do practice exams under full exam conditions (eg without notes, complete silence, reading time if applicable and no breaks). This is a MUST do when preparing for exams because: 📕 It helps you learn how to APPLY the knowledge. You could memorise the whole textbook and still do poorly on the exam if you don’t learn how to respond to questions the way examiners want you to. This is why so many students often complain that they get questions on the exams that they weren’t prepared for or have never seen before. Exam questions often don’t ask you to just regurgitate definitions word for word, instead they will present a real world example (and likely a new one every time) to see if you can apply your knowledge to solve the problem! By doing practice questions and comparing your exams to the marking scheme, you will develop this skill quickly, and be prepared for ANY question you could get. 📕 It helps you perfect your exam technique. By replicating the exam conditions, you will develop your own rhythm in terms of what you do during reading time, how long you spend on each questions, what you do for questions you don’t know etc. This is a skill itself, entirely seperate from knowing the content, that needs to be developed. 📕 It giving you an idea of how much time you have & how quick you need to be!! Exams can be long, and being able to pace yourself and stay focused for the entire duration is something that also needs to be developed with practice. - #studytips #studyhacks #examready #examtime #studytok #examtips #examseason
