Making a revision timetable takes just a small amount of effort, but it’s one of the most important things you can do during your exam season. First of all, it’ll help you avoid that horrible feeling of running out of time in the lead up to your exams. It’ll help you set priorities and keep your revision structured. And, most importantly, it’ll give you the chance to schedule in some well-earned study breaks and treats, so you can take time out without the worry. Try Smart Revision Calendar. You just need to enter information like your exams, deadlines and class times, and it’ll generate a timetable for you. And you can even set it to mute your phone during your working hours, so you won’t be distracted by notifications.

Can’t concentrate without music? Head to Spotify. You can find ready-made revision playlists, or just create your own. If you don’t want to be interrupted by ads, you can pay the monthly subscription. If you’ve got an NUS Extra card, you can get it for just £4.99 with Spotify’s student discount. 

If you find it easier to learn by listening, try revising through voice recordings. The idea is that you record your notes using the voice memo feature on your phone, then play back your recordings whenever you like. It’s a useful technique, because you can tailor your memos to what you need to learn. And you can listen to them pretty much anywhere and anytime, like when you’re on the bus or doing the washing up.

Apps and videos can be a great help when you’re revising, but don’t forget about the trusty old textbook. Don’t fancy dragging all those heavy books to the library? Luckily there’s no need to. There are loads of textbooks and revision guides that are available as e-books, so you can access all that handy information on your tablet or smartphone. Take a look at Collins. They’ve got e-books that cover a whole range of subjects, for GCSE, A-Level and more general reference. And because the e-books are based on the syllabus, you’ll know that you have all the information you really need.
