Now is the time to make sure that you are revising each and every day for each of your subjects. While you might be tempted to cram as many hours of revision in to each waking hour, the best approach is little and often. Make sure you do something related to media each day, but mix it up by alternating between research (of key texts for example), notes (going through your notes and condensing them in to a more streamlined version), study groups (meeting up with friends and sharing ideas), and timed essays (take a previous question, which you can find on this blog, and set yourself the correct amount of time, before using the mark scheme to have a go at marking it yourself).
Here's a great list of scientifically proven tips to maximising your revision potential. Do remember though that there will be some revision techniques that will work better than others. If you know that you work better in a completely barren room with no phone or music, be honest with yourself. If you genuinely work better with a study buddy, then this can be a good way to break up the formality of revision.
Finally, if you are stumped, make sure to ask your teachers, who will be able to suggest ways to revise effectively, and may even share what worked for them when they were sitting A Levels!
