Default Revision Techniques

Right about now i'm doing my final school exams. I'm predicted pretty good grades (A/B's) but i just can't revise. Sometimes i get a burst where i can revise for hours, but that isn't very often. I'm sure some of you have had problems or had to revise in the past. Have you got any tips that can help me?

I can't stand revision! I just can't do it, I did do some when I was doing my GCSE's, I would like to of said I tried to do my best when revising, but I didn't, and I still got B's

We were told to listen to classic music as it relaxes the body and slows the haert rate, making it easier to revise, also, drinking water is supposed to help!

Revise for 15 minutes and take a 2 minute break, don't eat anything like chocolate though, or watch TV, just sit and read or something...

Don't know if it'll help,

Something has to help me, i have a 2hr Maths exam on Monday morning followed by a 2hr30 Geography exam.
Then on Tuesday i have a Science exam and i really need to revise for that!

don't listen to any music that has vocals. As kornowski said, listen to classical music.

Also, aromatherapy is very effective.
You just have to use an oil burner.
Use the following oils, and put a COUPLE of drops in some water in the burner.

Use the following.
Bergamot
Frankincense
Lavender
Rose
Neroli
Patchouli

Use one at a time!
