      I’m probably the worst person to ask about revision as I’m quite a last minute person. I think the best way to understand a subject is to talk about it, speak with your teachers about the areas you find tricky and slowly you’ll increase your understanding. I don’t think there’s a trick with revision, other than reading, making notes and discussion, however I would definitely not recommend staying up all night before an exam, it really doesn’t help!

      Yeah I agree with Matt, I think the best idea would be to give yourself a lot of time and do a little bit often. That way you’ll find you’ll remember things easier and things will start to make more sense altogether. If you find it hard to understand science stuff sometimes, I don’t think trying to learn a lot in one go will help. Find someone who is happy to talk it through with you, discussion always helps!
      Good luck for your exams!
