[@nobodyisnotsomebody]

@@Hannah01 I know you mean no harm by this but GCSEs are still hard and to just disregard how difficult it is and the struggle just because something is harder is really invalidating. If you're trying to reassure GCSE students, maybe try saying something else. If anything, it just adds to the stress as people will think 'if I can't cope with GCSEs, how the hell will I manage A level?'

0:47 #1 Timing - very quick year, ends in April, work crammed into the beginning, revision and exams at the end 1:15 #2 Teaching Time - year 10 is the worst in terms of content, year 11 is not as content focused, more revision focused with minimal content 1:39 #3 Lessons - do not skip lessons, the work will just pile up into a mountain, catch up on lessons at home if you aren't in school 3:05 #4 Homework - do homework straight away on the day it's set, get it out of the way immediately 3:54 #5 Ask Your Teachers For Help - ask your teachers for help if you are stuck 4:41 #6 Revise For Your Mocks - revise for your mocks so that you can track your progress and are better prepared for the actual GCSEs 5:30 #7 Stress - stress will start in April but the exam period feels very quick, you just need to work through it 6:04 #8 Work Smart, Not Hard - don't just passively read textbooks for revision, do active recall and note taking instead 6:38 #9 Make a Timetable - make a timetable so that you're organised and prepared for the year, it's a very chaotic and busy year so be prepared

Thank you for uploading revishaan as I am going to start year 11 in September. Also our teachers won’t wrong when they said year 10 would go in a flash even though I have great memories as I did well in our movie but I am kind of nervous for the year 11 ones.

Hello revishaan. I just want to thank you for everything you have taught me about effective studying techniques and small tips to help me perfect my exams. Im from scotland and just finished sitting my highers which are equivalent to A - levels. I ended up with 5 straight A's in maths, physics, chemistry, english and business. Thank you for everything bro!

[@user-y1206]

Thank you so much Ishaan, really needed this advice for next year 11, Strangely I have been revising passively for every subject and so far getting 7 and 8 in y10 mocks, it works for me than active revision tbh.

[@Revishaan]

you will do amazing next year!! you got this

[@CuntyFernandoAlonso]

That’s amazing but try practicing some more hands on techniques during year 11 so you’re prepared for year 23

[@CuntyFernandoAlonso]

12* sorry lol

[@Nugget_Playz47]

I never really tried cause my parents didn’t really help with setting up a schedule to do homework when I was younger I was just never enforced to do my homework cause I knew my parents didn’t care and even then the teachers didn’t really care and I hate asking questions so I never really figure out how to best study for me as I have a horrible memory and my parents work a lot my older sister works and my nana can’t look after my younger siblings alone so I help look after them and that’s why I haven’t gotten a job yet cause I’m hesitant about who’s gonna watch my sibling when we have conflicting schedules

[@LankyMidget-eh4wh]

thanks brother looking to get an apprenticeship as an electrician good luck with year 13 starting on monday with year 11, it's crazy how time flies, i remember being in year 7 thinking i want these years to be over but ill guess ill miss it, but im also nervous for after school with adults saying stuff like school years are the best years of ur life but i think i'd be happier learning on a apprenticeship than being a full time student but i guess the opinion differs among people anyway like i said before good luck mate, hope all goes well and hope ur results went well.

[@LankyMidget-eh4wh]

one thing i also have which i guess is worrying i aint worried about exams or anything because i've always had the mindset that whatever i get and whatever happens will happen, do you think this is a good mindset or should i focus more? ( also btw i took geography idk why tho cause i had no interest in it and atm i dont know much about it, anything i could do to help?)

[@homeofgiveaways9051]

tysm for this revishaan ! I currently revise a decent amount in year 10 and am aiming to get all 8/9's in Novemember mocks. This has already made me less stressed and has gave me a insight of year 11. Thankss !

[@someoneyk6165]

Man I’m so stressed and I’m scared my mental health would drain my energy out and what if things don’t work out what if I end up failing it causes me nausea just thinking about it

[@alethiometer235]

starting y11 in september but got to get through results day for 2 subjects first.. scary thank you for the advice, very helpful video!!

[@inixola]

same here 😭😭

[@pineapple2415]

Summary of what i learnt from the video - year 11 goes super fast and there isn’t much teaching so start reviewing stuff! - do work on the same day it has been set - ask for help! It’s so important that you clarify your doubts - treat your mocks like the real gcse, revise as much as possible - work smart! - use flash cards on places like anki and quizlet I’m going into year 11 too so this video is just what we all needed. Thx so much for the tips Ishaan!

[@NR20244]

I’m going into year 11 and hope I don’t go back to my old ways I was back in year 8 and 9 where I didn’t pay attention enough and got distracted easily. Year 10, at the start I was decent but went back to my old bad ways which I wish didn’t happen.

[@mekokino2478]

1:14 Unfortunately that's not true for a friend's daughter 😕, her academy have been what she considers 'behind' in delivering lessons. Many teachers leaving the school, missing 3 months of content (due to staff shortages), returning to school only being halfway through nearly all 7+ subjects. 💀👍Is that enough time for revision? Ps. We do appreciate this video, thank you Revishaan

[@Revishaan]

Hi Zahrah, That’s an extremely unfortunate scenario that she is facing. I would say it’s worth investing in something outside of school to aid her through the process. If she can, I would recommend YT to watch videos / Seneca to catch up on learning. Of course you can email me anytime: [e-mail] for tuition/extra support.

[@Dreamin21]

@@Revishaan Thank you Revishaan for the advice. I'll pass on the advice to herself and my friend. As far as I'm aware, she's already purchased those CGP textbooks and flashcards that have been recommended and completes Seneca + Cognito Resources. Also, she praises all your effort across your videos as well as some of the tutoring she's been able to attend hosted by you. Thank you again, I'll contact you once I get the chance to. We really appreciate it 🙌🏽

[@nobodyisnotsomebody]

I'm going into year 10 and started my courses in year 9. This means that I have 3-4 lessons a day but because I was in the musical and part of this program where I'd go on trips, I've already learnt about how horrible it is catching up with school work I miss. It must be deadly if you have 7 lessons a day. I only missed 2 days tho because of covid right at the end of the year though I could have won some vouchers (for 100% attendance). I'm also really glad I had year 9, I barely studied but I now am going to try the 'hour everyday method' in year 10. Anyway, I just wanted to say that lol..... Also does anyone have any tips for eng lit revision, I struggle with it so much (I got like 47% in the EOY and for my first proper eng lit exam, it isn't horrendous but I have no idea how to improve!!!) and I'm afraid I'm gonna fail

[@harrisonkessell]

Hi, great video; I am going into year 11 and these tips should really help. On the section of the video about the timetable, do you have an example one that you used - it would be really helpful for some inspiration - if so if you have a spare minute could you post it on your story as a link or just photo?

[@romaisazaidi]

Hi Revishaan, I have been watching your Tiktoks and KZbin videos for over a year now and being inspired by you is the reason Year 9 has been my most successful year. I want Year 10 to be like that too and you talk about Anki a lot and I was wondering if you use it for all your subjects and how you make your flashcards in terms of the content on them. For example with the sciences I have the really thick textbooks (around 400 pages long each) so I'm sure if I should make flashcards from them or from the thinner revision guides as they're more concise. Also how do you sort out all of your decks on there, do you have folders for each subject, bigger topic, then subtopics? Is there a way to do that? Thank you for the videos you put out and good luck with Year 13

[@triumf7070]

as an average acheiving student going into year 11 what should i start doing in the summer to go fro 5,6 and a 4 in english to 8s and 9s

[@Revishaan]

I would say revise what you have learnt. The mistake most students make is not revisiting stuff they learnt in y9/10. It's SO important!
