In short
Yes, many do — but with realistic targets. During heavy exam periods, reduce new memorisation and keep daily revision so nothing is lost.
- Lower new memorisation during exams, keep revision.
- Plan around mock and final exam dates.
- Short daily sessions fit better than long ones.
Plan the year
- Autumn: steady new memorisation
- Mocks: revision only
- Spring: lighter new lessons
- May–June exams: revision only
- Summer: catch-up period
Daily time
30–40 minutes a day, often split between a morning revision and an evening class, is manageable for most teenagers.
Talk to your teen
Let them help set targets. Teenagers stay committed when they feel ownership, not pressure.
