I've recently just started proper revising a couple months ago and I have to say it is really,really difficult. I have just gotten my exams back and I have done really badly on them even though I spent 8 hours a day revising for 4-5 weeks. The way I revise is I watch videos/read textbooks and absolutely note everything down in a big notebook then do some questions on it, but for some reason it hasn't worked at all and now I have another exam coming up in 2 days and I just don't know what to do at all because if I don't write everything down I feel like I'll forget?? I try to do revision on my laptop or phone but nothing ever gets in. I seriously don't know what to do, any breakdowns or tips?
