Revision techniques

The best way for me to remember information is by hearing or reading it repeatedly like a song if it keeps playing the lyrics just automatically get stuck in my head. For next weeks assessment im going to keep looking over the notes and remember it in different sections mabey even re-write some bits that i really struggle to remember.
