- In this video, I give you revision tips and the best revision technique that no one ever tells you for how to easily remember anything. This helped me get All A*s in my GCSEs 2016 and I want to give you GCSE and A level advice for 2017! This is how to pass your A levels and pass your GCSEs and how to do well in exams - especially good for visual and kinaesthetic learners!
Thank you for all the support I've been getting - it's INSANE!! Today is my channel's 2-month anniversary (still a baby!!) and I couldn't be happier. I love you; all of you. Thank you.

Hi my name is Jade and welcome to UnJaded Jade! I post every Wednesday abut varying topics I truly care about, from self confidence to veganism.
-------------------------------
I'm a UA-cam Newbie! It's true. I only started this recently and and it is at this time of newbiehood that support is appreciated the most. Every like and comment makes my day! If you want to subscribe and join the UnJaded family, I welcome you with open arms xoxo
I got A* for A-Level Chemistry, Physics and Maths. My biggest advice is to start practising question papers even though you have not finished your revision. Start the first question paper, for instance for physics, look at the first number, is it on gravitation? then revise the chapter and attempt the question on the question paper..continue to do so for all the remaining questions. revising each chapter and doing the question. In this way, by the time you finish 6 question papers, you would already have revised a lot. Continue till you no longer have to look at your notes. Then one day when the exam is near, sit down and read everything and memorise all the theories properly. look at all the question papers you did all the answers, and where you committed mistakes, learn from those mistakes. Use the marking scheme. You will be guaranteed an A*
S.K K thank you so much hopefully this will work for me x
S.K K thank you so much but how would you give advice to the new spec since we don't have past papers is there any othertechnique you used??
Quork Understanding the concept and knowing the theory is very important but it is futile really if you do not practise any questions and understand how to apply what you learnt, especially for science subjects. You must have questions I suppose in the books that you are learning from, the topic by topic questions for instance. Practising questions are so important, without these I would have probably gotten Cs for my A-levels. I suggest studying everything of course and simultaneously practising all the questions available to you, even though they are not real exam questions, will be of tremendous help to you in any exam.

S.K K
pleasee reply did you doo every pastpaper?? is that the ultimate secret or just do at least 10 with your method??
I honestly think it is sad that this is what school and exams make us students do. We don't learn anything, we just try to remember phrases and formulas word for word until the exams are over and we don't need the information anymore. Then we just forget everything about it. What do we learn from this? Nothing!
Exactly
But do you need those things anyway? When will i need this super complex math formular? What loss do i have from eating all the information up and vomiting it out after exams?
You are gonna need it depending on what job you want blah blah. You can't walk into you're interview to say...become a doctor, and not know anything about the human body
Exams test memory thought not the application of knowledge. Doctor's should obviously have certain things memorized but when it comes to the diagnosis of a patient they may have to do more research to properly treat them. Another example would be with lawyers who have to research every case they get and then apply that knowledge that's available with them. They wouldn't come in to court emptyhanded expecting to win on memory online
Actually no. This would not work for me. I always just understand the processes and make questions on it to remember it
I really really love how none of your videos are clickbait... you genuinely talk about, in depth, what you title the video 😊 great channel
I used this technique yesterday on a generic answer in chemistry that I always seem to forget. Today I did a past paper and BAM! It was in my head! I couldn't believe it so thanks so much!
Charley Munns woahhh so proud!! 💛💛💛
@Mabelx _72 That would be utterly ridiculous for them to assume, I doubt that would happen.
@@UnJadedJade lol
Yaay. Thank God 💘
U should do a " how I get motivated to study " video !:)
How did you know what my next vid is....? 😉
UnJaded Jade haha we got a psychologist expert here xD 😅😅
felicia x you don't need motivation you need discipline!
they're two different factors hun x :) but its great to have both
Ah I wasn't really that clear in my first comment, but I meant discipline in the sense of 'knowing what needs to get done and doing it' if that makes sense! If you can recognise the high importance of revision then that alone should get you to do it! Idk it works for me, and kinda acts as my motivation in a sense! :) x
I am soooo happy I decided not to study and watch UA-cam videos instead because I found this crazy useful channel- thankyou for existing!!
Hey jade, I stumbled across your channel a few days ago due to your video on how you got all A*s at GCSE and have to say I have fallen in love with your videos! I love your positive vibe and think that your tips on revision and just generally on life will help me so much in the future. Just wanted to say thank you - keep up the great videos x
Thank you so much! I'm doing my GCSE's next month, and despite doing quite well in Biology, I can never remember the difference between osmosis, active transport and diffusion etc. so I will definitely try this! Thank you!
Eeeek terrifying times hey Aaron! Oh yeah, I remember I had this issue too! Active transport is ACTIVE therefore needs energy, osmosis and diffusion don't (they're passive!) and just think osmosis is water (all the s sounds in osmosis make me think of the sea... which is water??). Hahaha good luck my friend! x
Is there anything you can't do?! Thank you so much for that, I was sure it would be downfall in my Biology exams. Thank you again, good luck in any exams you have coming up :) x
Can't really whistle. And you should see me dance hahaha - but hey, I have my whole life to learn! ;) Glad I could help! Thank you so much ✨
Aaron Brooks haha i remember osmosis and active transport. I lost 3 of 6 marks but i still fortunately got an A* overall! Good luck bro! Wish you the best
Dolly the cloned sheep that's literally three things
Ahhh this is so good!!! If possible could you do a video of what exactly you do in the hour of your smart revision? Thank you! Xx
Hahahaha sure thing - I'll add it to my list ;) x x
That would be so helpful! :)
Freya 037 yes your right I was curious about this to if possible can you do it quick pls unjaded jade
Freya 037 i have found you! 😂
Please can you do it
This is crazy because I was just like: how on earth am I supposed to remember this hormone process cycle?! in chem/biology GCSE, and now I know so tysm.
This recommended youtube algorithm is like a stalker of me LOL
Also I deffo need that essay writing video!
UnJaded Jade
Can i use this method for maths?
Hi Jade, I just saw this video today. I just finished my A Levels this year and am now doing my GCSE Chemistry and Physics. I cannot thank you enough for providing me with a revision technique to try out. After all, there are still more revision tips out there that could be more effective than the ones I already know!
Found your channel recently and so happy I did! Recently I've been struggling at school bc my teachers have given me a much lower target grade than I thought I was capable of and it's really been getting me down, but all of your videos have really inspired me to have faith and persevere to prove them wrong! I always come away feeling really uplifted and I'm so glad that there are gems like you in the world who can make it a much better place 😌 xx
Hi Jade! I never ever wanted to revise. I hated the thought of revising. But seeing all your videos have definitely inspired me to revise and do well in my exams and also to become a better and more humble person!!!! Thanks for inspiring me ❤️xx
OH MY GOSH I LOVE YOU AND YOUR VIDSSS
I LOVE YOU MORE THAN ANY NUMBER OF SUBSCRIBERS! Thank you, thank you THANK YOU for being here ❤️💫
Thank you so much!! Our teachers taught us a way called "Active recall" which is basically saying the same phrase over and over until you remember it. I find it very time consuming and took me a whole hour to learn one page in my science revision guide. Schools really need to use this method!!
Last year in school we did a similar method. We imagined our house and each room was something that we had to remember to for example a word in every room that made a paragraph. You also could use the method to learn how to spell something or to remember the order of a process. Great video keep up the good work and congrats on 13k x
She's so nice to listen to. Thanks for the tips.
Can't believe that you didn't get into oxford
it doesn't make any sense whatsoever lol she literally got A*s at everything single exam, including english lit at AS
Maybe she's destined to do better
You are quickly becoming one of my favourite youtubers, you're so down to earth and kind its refreshing to see. I'm excited to see what else you have up your sleeve, congrats on 3k subs, definitely well deserved
Wow. This comment is so beautiful THANK YOU!! I'm excited for the future Kim - and with you in it! So much love, it's really appreciated x x x
got taught this method in February by a group called positively mad who ran a workshop in school but it wasn't explained that well. thank you this has really helped clarify it! 😊
This is so helpful for students, well done Jade. Being a teacher, it is extremely helpful to understand the needs of many students and the problems they are dealing with. This also motivated me a lot to start using the UA-cam to help students. Keep it up Jade.
I actually started doing this in an exam a couple of months ago without having watched this video. I didn't do this in my bedroom but in the place I was doing the exam and in the few minutes before the exam we were allowed to look at our notes, so I picked a spot in the room in front of me and learnt a biology definition (just a short one) on the light switch because it was something to do with heating up enzymes so that they denatured and I thought that the light switch reminded me of heat/light and therefore that definition worked, so I did a bunch of others and it really really works! I'm glad I found someone else who uses it!!
I love your videos!! You have such a lovely and sweet personality and you're literally one of the prettiest people I've seen - you look so natural and pure without makeup. What subjects did you take for A-levels and dyou know what you plan to do at uni (if you want to go)?
Just realised that someone replied to the A-level question, sorry!!
Well this is one of my FAVOURITE comments ever. You've made me sit here smiling. Thank you, so much! I just think I'm a hypocrite for promoting self confidence if I can't even put myself online without wearing makeup. People like you make me feel even more confident. I love you - thank you! ❣️ I have no idea what I'm doing at uni :( HELP! All I know is that in this life, I want to feel happy, so so happy, and successful in whatever I choose to do. lol school loves that of course (the pressure is unreal!) x
This is one of the only genuinely helpful revision videos on UA-cam, can't wait for more !! Xx
Love this!! I'm struggling to find motivation to study for my GCSE's, and finding you inspired me so much! Thank you for making these videos, and I'm so glad your channel is blowing up so fast, you totally deserve it Jade! Much love xx
This is such a good revision tip! Actually helped :))) xx
Aww yayyy I'm so glad!! I feel like SO many revision videos you watch are already just things we already know... thought this might be a bit different ;) x
Yeah they are, nice to learn something different to use :) x
this is what i did through high school and college, the more you did it the more easier it is for your brain to processed and remember 😊
But, didn't you get mixed up tho? You had lots of topics to memorise.
laterally true
Wow jade it's already 2018 January , you started 9 months ago and you've already got 112k subs ! I love u so much !!
Less than a year later she has over a 100,000 subs. She is a natural at youtube.
This technique is a variation of the 'method of loci', but instead of locations in an environment, you are using locations on an object. Great revision tip.
WOW thank you! tbh I thought this would be something silly I've heard from my teachers before but I can actually see myself doing this! The only subject of mine it would really work for is legal studies but I'm really excited to try it :)
I never would have thought to do this, but I tried it today and I actually think it's working!! Thankyou so much X
i think i had started watching this at another time so when i clicked on it was at 0:33 and Jade just goes “what the hell is going on”
same Jade
same.
This is like a simplified version of a memory palace. It compliments the way that the brain works- we have a better visual and spacial memory.
My room next month: full of useless objects I use to remember what I'm learning 😂
Whenever I feel overwhelmed with A level studies, I go your channel. Before exams, I do the same. You're basically who I run to with A levels !!!! Thank you so much for that!
Yes yes yes I'm so excited for the essay video - English is the one subject dragging me down at the moment and I desperately want to improve!!!!
I'm righting my exams soon and I've been stressing out a lot and I have been searching for ways I can guarantee good marks in my exams. Hence how I came across your video. I've been revising but I also feel like that won't be enough, I'm stressed because I also feel like these exams will determine my future you know. But I feel calmer after watching your videos because I feel like the methods you used, especially the one where you said you assigned phrases and words to memorize things if you know what I mean, I feel like if I just utilized those correctly I could get good marks so thanks.

I found your channel today and I absolutely love it!! So positive! When I found it this morning you had 2k, but know you have 4K. What? In one day you doubled in size! That just goes to show how many people enjoy your channel as much as I do!❤❤❤
You're so so great! Thank you so much for doing this, you are stunning btw!! My GCSEs are in a month and doing little revision tips like this are really going to help :) xx
3k SUBSCRIBERS!! So proud of you Jade xx
im honestly so GLAD you’re kinaesthetic because me too! no wonder these are so effective
Your channels growing so much !
I KNOW SO INSANE!! Can't really comprehend it tbh! Sending you a whole lot of love for just being here x x x
What I don't understand is why you don't have more subs!!! You totally deserve them!
850 subscribers... as I'm watching this 6 months later you have 92,000! well done girl!
came here from jack edwards channel and loved this video, thank you!
I honestly learned something from this video! Most revisioncontent is always the same, the same tips & tricks. But this is the first time I've heard this! Love it and I'm going to use it immediately :
I'm SO GLAD Sarah!! Yeah I feel you; UA-cam is so saturated with clickbait and the same content again and again. Tell me how this goes! Wishing you a lot of luck in whatever you're doing x x x
This is genius!
THANK YOU! Now you can go be a genius too ;) x x x x
Your tip of using objects to remember things has saved my life for learning quotes!!! Thank you so much!!!
Thank you so much! I was worried it wouldn't work for too much information, but this convinced me! Ly❤ and congrats for coming so far! I remember seeing your book in my the range in UK and I felt so connected to you😂❤
You now have 276K subscribers ❤️
I am too a kinaesthetic learner, but it is never taught in school how we can remember stuff, making it really hard for me to revise. I have my science exam tomorrow, and thanks to you, I now have all of B1 up in my brain in like 20 mins. I have no idea how to thank you, and you may have just saved me a GCSE!
Is like Sherlock's mind palace? #fangirl 😂 This is so helpful, Thankyou 💕
Your channel is blowing up so fast!! So happy for you, you bring so much positivity to youtube and you are so enjoyable to watch! Keep doing what you are doing!! :)
SO CRAZY I KNOW!! Awww thank you so much Paige! I really appreciate it 💘 x x x sending you a whole lot of love!
This video is amazing!!! I was wondering if you can do an English gcse video. Including things like writing an A* PEE paragraph please.
Thank you so much!! I will be soon! Good idea though ;) x
I just found your channel a few weeks ago and I love it!! I just love your personality, I have my AS levels in a month and I'm so stressed for them- no matter how hard I try I just can't seem to do any better😩keep making revision videos please!! ❤❤❤
You love my personality?? A comment like that is enough to literally make my day. THANK YOU ELLA! Oh my god I feel you. This whole youtube thing, despite the fact I adore it, is incredibly distracting and I have my AS's so soon too! What do you take? xxx
I take maths, sociology and psychology. I really struggle with writing essays and the timing. I never seem to finish because I read so slowly😩what do you take? ❤
Im currently in year 10 and i was wondering when you should start revising for your GCSEs? And how many hours a day you should revise for? BTW i love u and i am so glad that i have found your channel xxxx.
Hey Yasmine!! I did a LOT for mocks in November so I had a good base, but I properly started in Easter. Hmmm so f you honestly believe that in 4 hours or whatever, you are so super productive and are learning lots and covering enough, then PERFECT! No need to do more or less. Butttt if you waste so much time in the 4 hours, maybe you should extend it, or alternatively, make your time more productive.
Soooo basically, it's all relative with revision. Do as much as YOU need my friend. Hope this made sense! Thank you so much for your support! So much love x x x
Thanks a lot Jade for your helpful advice xxx
peronally, grade 10 i paid 0 attention to my IG's, but if you really wanna gurantee that A* i suggest one hour a day, 5 days a week in grade 10 and when you move on to first term grade 11 make it two, then term 2 make it 4, then by term 3 which is the term of your exams make it literally as long as you can (idealistically 8 hours?)
This i really helpful because by then you would've been consistent enough to memorize the conent+ get used to hours of revision. Good luck!
This is actually so useful thank you! Not just for exams but I do a lot of drama so line learning as well, so glad I found your channel :)
AAHHHH!! thank you so much!! i've been struggling to find some ways to remember A LOT of things, especially for something like triple science and this technique just made my life easier by one hundred times! i don't know what i'd do without your videos!!❤❤❤
10K-I'm so proud of you. I'm a first year university student but I love your personality and mindset
Awhhh bless you! Wow no way ❤️💫 do you actually know how crazy that feels; like words that came out of my mouth have influenced someone as clearly intelligent as yourself to actually be inspired to do something. Wow. THANK YOU! Hmmm when your vegan you can eat more than the average person, so just make sure you're eating enough, especially in the early days. Oreos are vegan ;) and there are so many good basic dinners that are so easy and cheap like pasta and rice, sweet potatoes and stir fries etc. Wishing you luck! (after exam season I want to do way more intro to veganism-type videos!) x x x
All A* wow...I envy you! I’m doing my GCSE’s this year and I certainly don’t think I’ll get A*’s. You are amazing
I'm struggling with maths can u give me advice on how to learn and memorise things. btw love ur video xx
I’m so so thankful this video exists 😭😭🧡🧡
Legend say she's at 350k now
I have adhd and only remember shit I like, it sucks. I will literally spend an entire day researching eg about a guy inside my textbook, his past, his birthplace, his thoughts and personality how he ended up doing what he did so I can connect everything and be in their shoes. Such a waste of time, thank you so much for this.
This is so helpful,as soon as I watched this I subscribed to you . Can you do a video on what helped you to pick your choices for GCSE xx
Hey Amal!! Awwhh thank you SO much, honestly. It means a lot. I'd love to actually! Might have to be after exam season but it's a good idea!! SO much love x x x x
This seems like such a cool idea, I'm definitely going to try this. I'm so happy that I've found your channel! I have my GCSEs next month and watching your videos has really helped me stay positive and keep working hard 💜
You're revision videos are seriously the only videos I find helpful. Keep up the good work!
It's probably one of the best revision video I've ever watched
So happy for you that ur subs increased! U deserve it! All your videos are so helpful! You seem like such a positive and motivated person! I've tried to do revision help videos on my own channel but no were near as informative as yours! 🙌🏼😍
awww bless you thank you so much!! This means the world to me 💫❤️ ahhh I'm sure they're equally as good! I'm sure my tips aren't applicable to everyone anyways - it's good to see revision from different perspectives. Sending you a whole world of love and luck x x x
I’m both a kinaesthetic and a visual learner so this is perfect
I heard about this technique at a workshop that came to school, this was a couple months ago and i can still remember the example that was used. This is such a good method! You're so inspiring, thank you 💘
Memorised my historiography quotes for higher history using this, exam on Tuesday thank you !!!
Knew as soon as you said "I'll show you one I use for A Level Chemistry" it'd be enthalpy change hahaha (I also do chemistry)
Jheeezzz, you're gaining 1k an hour or something. If people are watching revision videos, you're popping up in everyones recommended section hah. Well done.
Interesting, but instead of objects I sometimes remember stuff by associating it with a face I pull, like in Spanish when I remember verbs or remembering science processes. It sounds weird but helps
Oh wowwww never heard this!! So cool! I love the weird revision methods ;) tend to work better than what's done by everyone x x x
THANK YOU SO MUCH 😭😭
This is much easier to remember everything especially for all those SCIENCES SUBJECT!
Did you take art as a gsce subject? If so It would be helpful if you have annotation tips( Really cool revision tip btw)
I didn't I'm sorry! I love art, absolutely adore it, but not when it's graded and made stressful by school! A lot of my friends did it though! Good luck xxx
omg, im an visual learner and i got excited just to think about doing this, thanks a lot
I would love to do this but I feel like someone will look at me like this “😒🤨😂” 😂😂
Awww baby Jade
Haven't started to revise yet 👍🏼
J K T M same 😩
i actually find these videos of jades soooo helpful
this video is PERFECT for biology it is the most specific subject ever!
Jade my first exam is on the 15th of may do you think it's to late to only do 4 hours of revision a day or should I do a lot longer as it's really close
Also well done on 3k
Thank you!! And trust me mate, it's never too late to do anything 💜 right I'm going to tell you this now If you honestly believe that in that 4 hours, you are so super productive and are learning lots and covering enough, then PERFECT! No need to change it. Butttt if you waste so much time in the 4 hours, maybe you should extend it, or alternatively, make your time more productive.
It's all relative with revision. Do as much as YOU need my friend x
TAMITV Same psychology on the 15th. I haven't even started revising 😂😭 I always end up doing things last minute.
TAMITV mines on the 5th
TAMITV mines 15th too 😂 if you do this subject, is it RE?
THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE like i think this is why i can remember where the vocab words were on the paper but can't quite remember what they were or how to spell them in spanish for example
came across you in one of my 'gcse is in a month' panic attacks and you just seem like someone I would love to be friends with xx anyways I subscribed but I was wondering if you had any tips for last minute revisers [ :(((( ] like me who's aiming for all a*s like you?? already watched you're video on it but anything specific? tysm!
Hey friend 💙 bless you I'm so glad I could actually be of help! YOU'VE GOT THIS - yeah? hmmm last minute revisers hey. Okay so this one is a bit of a pain, but I think you NEED to have written flashcards in advance. That way you can just pull them out right near an exam, flick over ones you know, properly read the ones you don't! Hope this helped. Thank you for being here - i honestly am so grateful x x x x (P.S I'm an animal lover too ;))))
Thank you so much for the video! I am so glad that I found it and now I wonder why I have never tried this method before. I am currently doing the IB Diploma (Year 13) and I am certain that this method is going to save me in my Higher Level Chemistry Exams! Thank you
Thank you so much for your video. Found this for my son. It's great coming from a British youtuber. Kids here in Britain can relate to it, so much. Carry on!!
One of my teachers did this with us but with our way to school. That's also very helpful because I mean you know your way to school.
Thank you so much, the best revision technique I have ever learnt! I've just assigned most of the objects in my room to different processes for Biology and Geography! I subscribed as soon as I had watched the video :) xxx (also congrats on reaching 4k! when I watched this video this morning you were on 2k !)
Its called the mind palace technique madam
Being only 2 weeks away from my exams, I have never been so thankful to watch a video!!!
Could I ask you one question?
Did you watch YT videos, (such as the ones you create) when revising for your GCSEs?
DipityHD I did yes 😌 hmmm but quite honestly, maybe a third of them were useful? UA-cam is so saturated with the same tips again and again that aren't actually helpful! (I hope I'm not doing that too haha!). Good luck with everything my friend x x x
Thank you very much!
i just stumbled upon this. I am a visual learner myself and this seems so helpful. if you could do a video particulary on how to condense a lot of information into useful stuff it would be great because saying "make notes" is very vague. if you could do a demomstration it would be very helpful( plus i heard you are taking a-level biology and i am a science student myself).
i did this with my anatomy exam last year( for the bones) but i didn't realize that back then but this is AMAZING omg
I watched this video a few days ago and I'm trying it out today and I just want to say this may be the reason I get into college! This technique is amazing and it really really works for me so thank you , thank you so much
How did you revise for Maths and English Language? Xx
oooh a tough one!! I'll have a video on this soon I promise! It's highly requested ;) wishing you luck xxx
UnJaded Jade Yeah I wanna know how to revise for maths in such less time . My exam is on 3rd May Igcse . And I'm really stressed out right now. Thnx. 💕
Thug Life for maths it's best to just do loads and loads of questions and if you're stuck try looking at videos on maths genie I found them really helpful (I'm doing the new 9-1 edexcel maths and it's pretty hard but I've just done a load of papers and now I'm basically set for the exam)
Nafsin Jannat for English language get the revision guide and use that to learn how to write the answer, example questions and look at answers that they have given x
