Exam Revision

Not long to go people!  You should be at the final stage of your revision now, and everything should really just be consolidating and learning facts and figures and media terminology.

Below are 5 key things to do when revising:

1.  Analyse everything you watch!  It doesn't have to be out loud but when you watch a programme or an advert imagine the questions you'd get and what you'd say.

2.  Learn facts and figures about your films.  You should be the Oracle on your films by now.

3.  Go over past blog posts and find exam questions and mark schemes you can use for revision.  Also use AQA - you don't need a login.

4.  Make sure you know Media terminology off by heart!  It's so important to get it into your answers.

5.  Decide the theories you are going to use in the case study answer.  How will you apply them?  Make that decision now. 



Sample questions are the best way to learn in my opinion - you just cannot do enough.  Read the examiners reports and the questions and decide exactly what it is that you are going to do in that exam.  Have a plan!
