Revision Kit List - 10 revision essentials to pass your exams

Below is a useful list of stationery and equipment you may want to buy to help you revise and pass your exams.

Pens and writing implements

• Blue and/or black pens . Remember that you may be only able to write in a specific colour for the exam. Don't use Frixion pens in exams. The ink could be rubbed out and disappears at ceratin temperatures.
• Pencils . I prefer mechanical pencils because a) the lead doesn't get everywhere b) because they're well made and c) because they're precise.
• Coloured pens/pencils. I would recommend fineliners but you may also want to buy felt tips and/or colouring pencils .
• Highlighters . Use lots of different colours to pick out different points.
• Magic Whiteboard revision sheets
• Whiteboard markers
• Plastic wallets

Paper and Pads for revising

You will probably need A4 paper and A3 paper - A3 is a good size for mind maps.

• Lined paper and Pukka Pads . This is essential for writing notes.
• Refill pads
• Plain paper. This is useful both for making mind maps and for making flashcards.
• Knock Knock to do pads , Knock Knock Deal With This Pad & Knock Knock Crap Pad

Top 10 Everyday Stationery essentials

• Paper clips . These are really  useful.
• Reusable Whiteboard notebooks by Magic Notebook. It’s like a whiteboard in a book.

• Hole punch .
• Stapler . Obligatory staples, too.
• Sticky notes, sticky note cubes and Post It notes ! Stick them everywhere! Magic Sticky Notes are reusable so you can wipe them clean & reuse.
• Tipp-Ex, correction pens and correction tape . There are many different types; personally, I find the pen the most useful.
• Ruler .
• Sellotape and/or glue stick . Useful (predictably) for sticking stuff around the place.
