    Hey Oompa Loompa, have you much to get done?

    i am meant to be revising but at the minute i am finding much more interesting jobs to do, like clean the bath, mop the floor etc
  • Yeah I've got about 3000 words still to get done :(

    It's a bit of a strange question so it took me a while to get a grip on it... how are u getting on now? I did end up cleaning my shower the other day, and washing clothes is fun compared to getting down to an essay question... I never learn! Do u?!

    I find the best way to revise is if you feel like that is just to get some big sheets of paper A3 or flip chart, some markers and just draw out mind maps or some sort of diagram to revise. It does not feel like real revise because it is fun.

    Yeah just stick some paper together and do a spider diagram, with even just the points to revise.
    When are everyone's exams?
