Where do you usually revise at?

[Andy-]

I revise at the dining room table so I can et and revise at the same time.

I dont revise in familiar places, as I get distracted if I'm in my room. I usually go sit in the study or most often the kitchen - I tend to get a lot done in the kitchen.

Normally in my room, as a lot of really useful revision websites are available, and my desktop is in my room

In my bedroom after disconnecting the xbox and removing my phone/ipod from my sight but still i'll get distracted half the time so i tend to go to revision classes in school if they have any on which they do when exams are looming.

At a public library in town for serious exams. It's deathly quiet so there's nothing to distract you and you're surrounded by people who are also working hard so it helps to motivate you. Only downside is that you have to pay to get there if you're going by train etc and then you need to buy lunch from somewhere. I consider it to be worth this though because if you go early in the morning, like 09:00, then you can work for a good solid 7-8 hours if you're determined.

Right. I love to revise at public libraries too. I get very easily distracted when there's noise. I hate noises when I'm revising on subjects esp. History. I can't focus on it and I'll forget the facts very fast. 7-8 hours? LOL. I'll die. I usually give myself 10 minutes break between 30 minutes of study so that I can store whatever is needed to be stored in my brain.

When you say you tend to get a lot done in the kitchen I laughed haha. I revise at the kitchen too cuz it's well ventilated there.

Me too. We don't call it revision classes. We call it extra classes and I have to stay back at school until 4 pm everyday! I always came home with a big headache and a lot of hmwrk.

This is irrelevant for this thread, however, I am interested so What is your school day like in Malaysia?

When I need to revise I tend to do it in my bedroom. Normally as I'm doing accounts and finance I have loadsss of paper to use so I end up having to do it on my bed as that's the biggest space I have in my room!

I have a weird tendency to lay on the floor in my bedroom and read/write. I guess it's because there's usually more space there than on my desk and that there's fewer things that are likely to distract me.

Most work today is electronic based imo so I would need a laptop near me.

I think just make everything around you oblivious to yourself, and then get a glass of water, ensure there are no disruptions and take regular breaks and move about a bit.

Are you a Visual, Audio or Kinestetic learner? This could help knowing !
