Study

Use the Leitner spaced repetition system to study your flashcards, then build the rest of your revision session around that retrieval practice.

Year 12 study routine

Use this weekly revision routine

Spread your revision across the week instead of saving everything for one long block. Retrieve often, apply under light pressure, then use the weekend to repair weak spots properly.

Weekly target 4 short sessions plus 1 longer repair session
Session length 15 to 25 min on school nights, 40 to 60 min on the weekend
Core rule Attempt -> Check -> Fix
Session timer 00:00:00

Leitner review schedule

Cards your teacher has created are assigned to boxes based on how well you know them. Cards move to higher boxes as you get them right, and drop back to box 1 if you miss them.

Box Review frequency
1 Every day
2 Every 2 days
3 Every 4 days
4 Every week
5 Every 2 weeks

Suggested weekly revision routine

Shift the days to fit sport, work, and SACs. The pattern matters more than the exact day labels.

Mon

Due flashcards first

15 to 20 min

Spaced retrieval

Start the week by reviewing due cards and saying the answer before you flip the card.

Tue

Course questions on one weak topic

20 to 25 min

Targeted practice

Pick one topic that still feels shaky and work through questions without leaning on notes too early.

Wed

Light catch-up review

10 to 15 min

Consistency

Keep the chain going with a shorter session: due flashcards, one recap question, or a quick look at your error log.

Thu

Practice exam questions

25 to 35 min

Exam skill development

Complete a small set of exam-style questions under light time pressure, then check them honestly.

Fri

Flashcards plus explain one idea out loud

15 to 20 min

Consolidation

Finish the school week by reviewing due cards and teaching one concept from memory as clearly as you can.

Wknd

Error log plus active recall

40 to 60 min

Deep repair

Rework mistakes from classwork, quizzes, and SAC prep until the fix makes sense, then finish with a mindmap or verbal recap.

Use this loop

Attempt -> Check -> Fix

Try first from memory, check what was correct, then repair the gap straight away.

Avoid this trap

Look -> Copy -> Move on

This feels productive, but it usually builds recognition rather than real recall.

Keep the week active

If the week gets crowded, keep the Monday, Thursday, and weekend sessions. Several short active sessions usually beat one giant cram block.
