- Scope out in detail exactly how many potential ‘revision slots’ there are before the exams start
- Practising success visualisation and goal setting
- Become familiar with the 'growth mindset': that it's effort, not IQ, that matters
- Practising effective methods of reading, summarising & note taking
- Learning self & time management techniques for exam preparation
- Prepare for sitting their exams (mind and body, dealing with stress and anxiety, diet, exercise, sleep)
