Try to think positively about revision and exams. No they're not the best thing but focusing on the negatives will only make them worse.

When revising indoors keep your environment cool. Set up fans & open windows. A hot room will make you tired decreasing your productivity.

The evening before an exam shouldn't be spent cramming. This will only stress you out. Have the evening off and get an early night.

If an exam has gone badly this isn't the time to dwell on it. Focus on your other exams. At this stage they are more important.

Don't use sugar as an energy source for your revision. The "sugar rush" will last for about 30 mins and then your energy levels will drop.
