Join us on this episode to go over the most important advice when it comes to mark schemes and not loosing out on silly marks. Take note, your grades are about to fly!
The headline habit is RPF — Recall, Practise, Feedback: short bursts each day to push recall towards 80% by glancing at notes, putting them away, and answering questions to see what’s stuck. We compare ways to retrieve (speaking, writing, sketching), show how to build flashcards sensibly (chunk first, refine later), and use AI to make exam-style questions that match what you’ve just revised. Then it’s mark-scheme mimicry — why “technically correct” can still miss marks, how to spot the key words examiners want, and a simple four-column table to fix weak answers.Parent tip: celebrate small wins to keep momentum.Challenge: try RPF for 20 minutes a day this week and tell us how it goes. Next time: a deeper look at how examiners think and how to write for the mark scheme.
