10 ways to Grade As

As exams draw nearer it is time to start tuning your body and your lifestyle to succeed. Here are our top ten tips:


1. Sleep at least 8 hours each night.
2. Eat well, at least three times per day, preferably four and healthy food.
3. Exercise, at least two 30 minute sessions a week of sport that makes you out of breath.
4. Limit social networking sites to 30 minutes a day.
5. Put your phone on silent and out of sight when working.
6. Work in slots of no more than 40 minutes except when practicing papers.
7. Drink water, at least two litres per day.
8. Plan breaks to avoid feeling guilty when not working.
9. Work both with others and on your own; to discuss ideas and train the brain to recall the information by itself.
10. Get a personal tutor to help you with the tough bits www.tutorlink.org.uk we are here to help as always.


Good luck with any impending exams.
