I'm hopping in today for a bit to ask you guys these questions because I have exams on Monday and I need help. So...

•How long do you guys usually spend revising/looking over things each night?

• If you have any advice on how to ace exams then please help.

• Tips on how to be in a top mental form the day of the exam.

• How to calm yourself down when you're worried incase you do crap.

• And if anyone has experience of having trouble with revising like I do then please own up and tell how you solved it.

Funny thing is I haven't been on it for about 3 days. I posted saying I was going to give it a rest so I can revise. So please just give proper answers and don't get cheeky.

Told you mate. Good nights sleep.
Make sure you actually understand your subject and why. Learning parrot fashion isn't learning.

•I spend like 1-2 hours each night
•My advice is make a note sheet even though you cant use it on your exams because if you write it down, you'll remember it easier.
•EAT BREAKFAST!! I ate an apple wednesday and aced all my exams that day.
•In case you do crappy dont worry, you'll ace it next year or next semester (Trimester).
•I had trouble studying but like I said make a good note sheet and study it. Way better chance or remembering if you write it down.
•Good luck Lawrence 😉

For the languages write out flash cards. Mix them up and go thru til you know the answer at a glance. Works for others too.
Cram the day before but get a good nights sleep. No caffeine crams:).
Make a recording of stuff and put on replay while sleeping. Your subconscious will take it in.
Go with your first response to a question unless absolutely sure of change. Your first response is usually correct.
Been quite a while😌.

get a pack of index cards. Diff colors for different subjects if you want.
Write out word/term/phrase/key point on one side. Definition or response on other.
Both the writing and repetition helps.

When was taking Spanish, I would try to fit in word that I knew into conversation. It may be annoying to parents and friends but it helps.

Yes they have a question on one side and an answer on the other.

For French and Spanish I would suggest NOT to study them on the same day. generally speaking it's not a good idea to mix the two.
If you have to speak the language as part of the exam flip to a local Spanish or French network( we have both here).
For Math the best idea is do sample problems(memorizing doesn't work in math for me at least)
If you have time make the vocabulary for any subject into a type of game( gives your brain instant reward for remembering the vocab)
For example I like Jolly Ranchers so for every 10 flash cards I get right I get a jolly rancher( sounds stupid but works lol)
