13. 10 Top Tips for managing the irrational avoidance of work Make a firm revision plan, commit to it publicly and share it with an adult who will help you to stick to it, display it on the fridge door Prioritise the tricky stuff that you don’t like because it’s hard: don’t waste time doing the things you find easy but fun Once you have learned most of the factual material use past papers to test whether you can apply your knowledge: applied knowledge sticks. Plan to re-visit topics several times over a long period: this is much more effective than last-minute cramming before an exam Use breaks correctly: not too long but reasonably frequent Make the first revision session of the day fairly short, then have a short break, then go back to it for a longer session Manage your caffeine intake, so that you avoid stress and sleep well Make your workplace an appealing place to be: comfortable chair and well-lit, tidy desk with all the necessary equipment on hand Get an eye test if you haven’t had one recently Remove distractions: hand over your games discs to be kept safe until your exams are finished, hand over your phone or leave it charging away from your desk when you start a revision session D
