I Recommend... Inspector George Gently

By -

Set during the nineteen sixty's, this british cop drama revolves around it's titular character Inspector George Gently and his partner Detective Sergeant Bacchus as they invesatgate all kinds of crimes from murder, to robbery to kidnapping all set agianst the backdrop of nineteen sixty's england North East England. This brilliant drama perfectly catches the look and feel of it's time period and touches on the big political and social events and changes at the time. The characters, side and main, are all loveable and endearing but also very human in all their flaws. The mystery's are engaging and fascinating as well as the side plots revolving around the main characters. If you like a good detective drama or even period pieces I would definitely recommend this series.

It is also important to be aware of things that you may need to memorise, such as quotes, equations, or formulas. Starting to memorise things early increases the likelihood that you will remember it. Here are some great ways to study: Make a study timetable -  This will ensure that the workload is evened out across a longer period of time rather than squished into a last-minute late-night session! e.g. Monday afternoons for English, Tuesday afternoons for Maths etc. Maybe allocate more time towards subjects you aren't as confident in.  Using Quizlets/flashcards for key terms/definitions or making a Kahoot! to do with friends. Study groups -  Studying with friends can be very distracting, but you...
