I find writing things down, sometimes a couple of times, makes the information stick in my head.

Good luck with your prelims though! I have mine at the end of January :(

Eat well, get lots of sleep, take regular breaks whilsts revising, revise in a tidy space
Use colors, easyer to remeber things.

They are very similar in format to the SQA Exams, and are designed to give the pupils a mock run, showing them how they would perform had that been exam day. The grade a pupil receives has no bearing on their final result on exam day: a pupil can get 0% in a Prelim, and pass a final exam. Schools use prelims as an early warning system of sorts, to note which pupils need to push harder, or need help. Pupils often look at their prelim results, work in the areas where improvement is needed, and improve their mark in the final exam


aftere reading that i dont fell as much preasure to pass these but i will still try but i feel realved after reading this

I normally find the prelims are a lot harder in comparison to the actual exam.

As people have said colours stimulate the brain into remembering it (or so my chemistry teacher says). Sometimes even reading aloud and recording it can help if you are a person who can listen to a teacher and take in everything they say.

Work in a comfortable environment.
And chew gum, no idea why.. but when Im chewing gum or something, I seem to remember things?

Might sound crazy, but it works; well for me anyway!
