i read through things make mind maps and read over things loads, but writing things out does help me alot!
Read over the revision sheets handed out by the teachers and make mind maps to help memorise key words which may help. I also look at past papers that I have done, previously, and try to remember things that I have done wrong and things that I am not too sure on.
I use passed papers, read revision sheets and booklets given out by teachers and write key points out in note points, re-write notes and do spider diagrams with bright colours. :)
Well when I was revising for my GCSEs I just read through everything I had and used SAM Learning, the night before the exam. I seriously don't reccommend it. Procrastination is a *******.
you dont need to, gcses r easy
i dont study. never liked it. i just pay attention in class thats all.
i make exceptions for maths tho. love the challenge so i always do sums and all that stuff. thats how i study for maths.
I find that just reading through your notes doesn't help much, but writing stuff down several times helps me to remember it. It's always good to make your own revision notes, writing down the main points of each topic, and then rewriting them from memory. I like to make posters and stick them on my wall, which was useful in subjects like chemistry, with loads of equations and stuff to learn. If you're reasonably clever, you can get away with doing very little work, and passing with a decent grade at GCSE, but I strongly advise you to do plenty of revision well in advance. It's good to get into the habit of thorough revision sessions, because although you can do ok at GCSE level doing little work, if you repeat this at A level, I can guarantee that you will fail.
The best method is to have no specific method - use many methods to use all the key areas of your brain!
Personally, I mostly use past papers and make memorable brief notes.

i go on bitesize and have msn open, when someone comes in room i close msn and revise.

but aside from that,
what jaiisun said is best, just read/speak/do/whatever else there is, and you have a much higher chance of remebeering it :)
