Intensive Revision Courses (Xmas, Easter, May)

What do you think is more beneficial when doing a subject at a revision course: Block sessions (5 - 6 hours) for each subject or 1.5 hr classes spread over 5 days for each subject.

1.5 hr classes. Because more than likely you'll re-cap on what you did the day before each day & it helps it stay in your memory & 5/6 hrs of the one subject will get really really boring.

Hope i've helped. I'm doing a revision course of 5 subjects a day & 1hr 20min classes

the institute do them www.ioe.ie and they vary in cost. i'm sure other places do them too though.

and imo shorter classes are better. more structured and you'll pay attention for the most part of most of them, the 6 hour ones you lost concentration after about 2 hours and only have the notes then!
