Revision Techniques

[tickle_fan031]

Here's a random question for you...seeing as it's getting that time of year again for some of us I thought I'd see what you do when you prepare for exams. How do you revise and what techniques do you use in order to keep the info in your head?

For me I have to be alone, in silence, and not facing any windows coz I'm easily distracted.lol.I make notes from the notes I have to try and shorten it down, then I try and learn the info parrot fashion by repeating it aloud then write it all down to see what I can remember. I once tried to have music in the background, but I only ended up singing along to the music instead.lol.

Or to make this thread a bit more interesting have any of you had any funny experiences with regards to exams etc?

My exam revision techniques are, in all honesty, exactly the same as yours in every way. 😛 Right down to trying to listen to music.

A couple of funny things have happened in exams, though. One time, I was in a crowded and completely silent exam hall. Suddenly, cutting through the silence was an exact replica of the General Lee's horn from "The Dukes of Hazzard". It killed the serious mood in about a second. XD

The only one that happened to me personally that I can think of was one time, I was trying to cough or suppress a sneeze or something, and ended up making a squeaky fake fart noise by accident. I turned redder than a postbox and ducked my head, hoping nobody heard. >_<;;
