Most secondary schools will hold mock examinations soon. As a student, do you have problems preparing for exams?   If you do, here are some useful web sites designed to help you improve your revision skills and exam results.

  Looney Bin at http://www.geocities.com/Athens/ 3843/index.html offers a range of study advice for the student sitting exams or writing reports.

   Another site, at http://www.psych.ucalgary.ca/ CourseNotes/mcadvice.html, caters to students who have difficulty with multiple-choice exam questions.

 Better time management skills will help you study more effectively.

     Check out the tips at http://www.gmu.edu/ gmu/personal/time.html and make the most of your study and personal time.

  Tips include how to draw up that all-important revision timetable.

      ResearchPaper.com(http://www.researchpaper. com/) is a must-see for those trying to get that big paper off the ground.

 The more helpful aspects of this site are the Writing Centre, with grammar and punctuation tips, and the Idea Dictionary, which lists potential research topics. Science Study Guide at http://www. performance partner.com/ consists of science tips, notes and homework help.

  It should be the perfect study companion for that next science test.

   For help with general subjects, try BJ Pinchbeck's Homework Helper (http://tristate.pgh.net/% 7Epinch13/). It offers good search engines, a reference section containing on-line dictionaries, encyclopedias and thesaurus, access to newspapers on-line, and other educational resources.

 WBAY's Homework Helper at http://www.wbay. com/homework/ features homework advice for students and a special resource section just for teachers and parents.

 Here are a few more homework and study skills pages: http://www.fallriver.mec.edu/goodhomepg. html; http://www.ucc.vt.edu/stdyhlp.html; and http://www.d.umn.edu/student/loon/acad/strat/.
