Im sure at some point everyone here at Esato has done some sort of exams.

Im currently doing my a-levels, probably the most important exams of my life as they will determine whether i get in to uni or not!

Anyway, I am really struggling with my revision, I just cannot get motivated!!

Any tips...?

... Aaaaaaaah, exams! I don't wanna say anything wrong - something that works for one, can be a waste of time for someone else... Plus, I have the feeling you weren't born when I sat the equivalent in, I presume, a different country...
I just met with a friend a couple of days before, and we rubbed our 2 I.Q.-points together to see if we can start a fire... No stress, just talking about the probs, explaining stuff to another... Worked out alright - well, he failed maths, I failed religion - so from my atheist point of view I definitely won! Still passed the shit, and if I "believed" in state-schooling, I'd actually be qualified to teach!
Guess, the fact that you realise the significance for yourself, is a good sign!
Just find a way to figure out what you're really crap at - that's why a trusted friend is the best imho - you might be surprised to find that you can explain stuff to him/her and s/he gets it!
Don't panic, and if you do, don't blame...

DO NOT do it infront of the tv, go to a quiet room

Go to a quiet place, like your nans, or higher a flat and work there, keep the tv away because your gonna be tempted. Make sure you have an internet connection if your gonna use the internet and study in quiet. Good luck mate! I hope your sucsessful! Your an esato member after all! Do us proud mate! When you pass youl get the good jobs, goin on holiday, nice cars.. aint that motivating enough?

Be interested in the subjects that you are studying in the first place. That way, you remember everything without having to revise.

Sorry, but it's true. I learned the hard way by scraping past my A-Levels and eventually taking a subject at Uni that I truly loved doing. I wasted a year failing at my original subject and was lucky enough to be given a second chance. And this was 14 years ago when University places were ten-a-penny, it's not like that now.

Revision is a load of b******s. If you're passionate about a subject, you don't need to revise because it's already inside you.

So if you've done well in your coursework, you'll do well in your exams.
