Are you all ready for the end of term exams next Monday?0:06
It's English first, isn't it?0:10
English, followed by History and then Geography.0:15
I've been revising for the past two weeks.0:18
There's so much stuff to read.0:21
But you're always so well organised with your revision.0:24
I don't know how you do it.0:27
I always seem to leave things to the last minute.0:29
Well, I read through everything once and take notes of the most important points.0:34
Then I close my notebook and write out the notes again from memory.0:39
And just to make sure I go through them mentally in my head a third time.0:43
Wow, that's a lot of effort.0:49
I read something once and find I can usually remember it.0:51
My problem is not leaving myself enough time before the actual exam.0:56
There always seems to be something else going on.1:00
Like last summer, for instance.1:04
Was it one of your tennis tournaments?1:06
Actually, it was my cousin Brett's birthday.1:08
The day before the math test.1:11
I only stayed two hours at his party because I wanted to go home early to study.1:14
I thought I had plenty of time, but in the end I sat up all night cramming.1:19
I only just passed the test.1:24
I should have planned my revision better.1:27
So what are your plans this weekend?1:31
Any parties on your list?1:33
I'm going to try and be like you for once.1:36
Stay in both days and do some organized revision.1:39
Actually, I'm going to take Sunday off to relax before Monday morning.1:44
I've revised all the English and history stuff.1:49
I just have a few chapters of geography to read.1:52
I can do that on Saturday.1:55
Yeah, and I've got to read some poetry for the English exam.1:57
Mr. Briggs said there'll definitely be a poetry question.2:02
Ruby, what's the matter?2:06
I've revised all the novels and plays, but I completely forgot the poems.2:11
Now I'll have to spend all Sunday studying instead of going out for a picnic like I planned.2:17
Cheer up, it's not that bad.2:23
Why don't you come over to my house on Sunday?2:25
Then we can study together.2:28
I'll come round after lunch, then we can quiz each other on how much we've remembered.2:31
