Make revision practice match the assessment

A revision-planning method that matches practice questions to assessment conditions and turns each attempt into one clear next action.

Why this method works

Read the assessment instructions before choosing a practice method. Use authorised questions, realistic timing and only the materials appropriate to that assessment.

Afterwards, check the law and any feedback guidance. Distinguish knowledge, application and timing problems so that the next practice session addresses a specific gap rather than repeating an unfocused reread.

  • Match practice to the assessment format, time and permitted materials.
  • Use authorised questions and check sources afterwards.
  • Separate gaps in law, application and timing, then choose one next action.

What the video says

UK law students, revising everything but avoiding practice questions? Start with your assessment instructions. Check the format, time and permitted materials. Choose one authorised practice question. Set a realistic time for planning and answering, then attempt it under those conditions. Afterwards, check the sources and feedback guidance. Separate three gaps: missing law, weak application and lost time. Pick one to work on before your next attempt. Open-book does not mean unlimited time, and closed-book practice does not excuse inaccurate law. Your module's instructions stay in charge. Durmah's free student guide helps you plan revision around practice, not just rereading.
