No new notes in the last 10 days. Focus =clarity over coverage. Re-teach key topics to a friend or to your camera — teaching exposes weak spots faster than any quiz.
Instead of full past papers, they do 20-minute question bursts: 1 Paper 1 short answer + 1 data response + 1 evaluation mini-essay. This keeps recall sharp without burnout.
Track marks, not hours. Use StudyIB's score tracker or a spreadsheet: Date | Paper | Mark / Total | Weak Area. Pattern recognition = faster gains.
Caffeine cutoff = 3 p.m. Screen-free = 30 min before bed. Light exercise = focus amplifier. No one performs at 7/7 with 4 hours of sleep.
Every other day, replicate exam timing + silence. When the real paper hits, your brain says:"We've been here before."
