Elite IB Revision Techniques

🧩 1. Spaced Repetition (Ebbinghaus Curve)

Review material after 1 day → 3 days → 7 days → 14 days.

🧠 Each interval strengthens recall.

Try scheduling it in StudyIB's Smart Planner.

💡 2. Active Recall

Don't reread. Close your notes, write what you remember, then check.

Every retrieval act builds neural efficiency.

🔄 3. Interleaving

Mix subjects or topics (Bio enzymes → Chem rates → Eco demand).

Forces your brain to choose the right method instead of guessing from context.

📊 4. Past-Paper Patterning

Analyze 3–5 past papers. Note recurring command terms or topics.

You'll find hidden probabilities: e.g., Micro evaluation = Paper 1 Q2 almost every year.

🪞 5. Dual Coding

Combine visuals + text (diagrams, flowcharts, mind maps).

IB Biology and Geography benefit massively from it — recall jumps up to 65%.

🧘 6. Sleep & Consolidation

One all-nighter can wipe 30% of memory retention.

Plan your revision like a marathon, not a sprint.
