You could start by broadly dividing the syllabus over the remaining months of the year and trying to revise in large blocks. Alternatively, you could also peg your revision schedule to a test series schedule. Usually they happen once a week so you can keep that much portion to be revised in that week. This might be a systematic method of completing revisions if you have no clue about how much time to allocate to finishing off your syllabus.

I tracked my hours for last 15 days and realised that whenever i started studying sharp at the scheduled time (9am for me) i was able to pull decent number of hours, whereas whenever i failed to stick to schedule, my whole day went down the drain. Lesson -  starting hours of schedule make all the difference. They set the pace for the rest of your day.. do something productive right in the morning , and you are more likely to achieve your targets and end your day on a happy note

You could start by broadly dividing the syllabus over the remaining months of the year and trying to revise in large blacks. Alternatively, you could also peg your revision schedule to a test series schedule. Usually they happen once a week so you can keep that much portion to be revised in that week. This might be a systematic method of completing revisions if you have no clue about how much time to allocate to finishing off your syllabus.

It is said to make your revision schedule daily , weekly and monthly for longer retention.

Personally i think its very hard to do especially when you have a large chunk of syllabus hanging over your head.

I have in my previous attempts revised on an circular basis , i.e. when all subjects have been read, come back to subject 1 .

Not recommended.


Now, I am trying to allocate 1 day a week for revision.
