Revision should be filtered, not endless

The last phase before an entry test is where many students lose structure. They start revising everything at once and end up retaining less.

A better system is to revise in layers: weak chapters first, then repeated wrong MCQs, then selected mixed review.

Wrong attempts deserve priority

A wrong MCQ is stronger revision material than a random familiar one because it points directly to a past failure.

That makes wrong-attempt review one of the highest-value activities close to the exam.

Do not abandon timing during revision

Late revision should still include some timed work. Otherwise students become comfortable again but not exam-ready.

Even short timed blocks help keep the pressure realistic.
