LOVE LIVING WITH HOST? Rebook for September 2025
Exams might feel overwhelming, but with the right prep (and a little help from AI), you can walk in cool, calm, and ready to crush it. Whether you’re in school, college, or uni, here’s a guide to help you study smarter – not harder.
Start by making a realistic revision timetable. Break your subjects into smaller chunks and spread them out. No more last-minute cramming chaos!
Pro tip: Use tools like Google Calendar or Notion to organise your study blocks.
These are science – backed techniques to help you remember stuff better.
Active Recall: Test yourself instead of just rereading notes.
Spaced Repetition: Review the same topic over increasing intervals to lock it in long-term.
Try this: Turn chapter headings into questions and quiz yourself.
Practice makes progress! Doing past papers under timed conditions helps you get comfy with the format and spot gaps in your knowledge.
Study in different ways – flashcards, mind maps, summary sheets, voice notes. Your brain loves variety!
Sleep, food, water, and movement are your secret weapons. Don’t underestimate how much better your brain works when you’re not running on instant noodles and 4 hours of sleep.
AI isn’t just for writing essays or making memes—it can actually make your revision game way stronger.
Struggling to understand a concept? Ask an AI to explain it in simple terms. You can even ask for analogies, summaries, or real-world examples.
Example:
“Explain photosynthesis like I’m 12.”
“Summarize Shakespeare’s Macbeth in 5 bullet points.”
Paste your notes into an AI tool and ask it to turn them into flashcards or quiz questions for active recall practice.
Test yourself with AI – generated questions. You can ask for multiple-choice, true/false, or open-ended questions on any topic.
Try asking:
“Give me 5 multiple choice questions on the causes of World War I.”
Before submitting essays or short answers, use AI to check your grammar, clarity, and tone.
✍️ Bonus: You can ask it to “make this more academic” or “explain this like a teacher would.”
If you’re overwhelmed, AI can help you prioritize your tasks or even build a custom study plan based on how much time you have left before exams.
Studying for exams is tough – but with solid strategies and some AI magic, you’ve got this. Remember, it’s not about being perfect; it’s about being prepared.
Put on a lo-fi playlist, grab your water bottle, and hit those books. And if you ever get stuck, you know where to find a helpful AI friend. Remember that Host offers study spaces at a selection of our properties, the perfect place to zone in to your revision.
To become more ‘environmentally friendly’, Host is launching the #HostEnvironmentalPledge campaign to encourage responsible behaviour and drive sustainability across our sites throughout the UK and Ireland.
It’s a simple campaign! For every percent we reduce our overall utilities (electric, water and gas) consumption by we donate to one of our nominated charities.
