Are you worried about academic study skills and exam revision?
Without a plan, revision can be overwhelming. Disorganisation can be a huge distraction. And if you’re prone to procrastination, it’ll lead to even more frustration.
The good news is that ineffectual habits can be shifted. Study skills can be learned. Revision techniques can be practiced. And when you discover an approach that works for YOU, there’s no limit to success.
That’s why time management, organising and revision study skills make such a difference.
Study skills not only enhance academic performance; they also boost motivation and confidence.
Being organised will set you up for success whatever you choose to do after school. And whatever your career path, time management and productivity are skills for life.
What are exam revision and academic study skills?
There’s no standard way to study or to prepare for exams. That’s why it’s so important to find techniques that work for you as an individual.

- Organising study materials, especially paperwork
- Taking notes in different formats
