Start with one topic and one small task
A productive revision session should leave you able to explain or argue something more accurately. These free tools turn reading into retrieval, comparison and writing. Choose the task that addresses your current difficulty.

| Comparing thinkers directly | Compare Augustine and Hick using the same criteria. |
| Turning a strengths-and-weaknesses list into evaluation | Work through the Natural Law argument guide. |
| Knowing what belongs in an essay plan | Follow the complete 40-mark planning walkthrough. |
| Checking a finished draft | Use the essay checklist, then choose one paragraph to improve. |
Your seven-day revision sprint
Spend about 20 minutes a day on one topic. Retrieve the key ideas, explain one view, build an objection, compare positions, plan an answer, write a paragraph and redraft it. The editable text download includes prompts and writing space, so you can print it or paste it into your own notes.

See the method in a complete essay
The free annotated Problem of Evil essay shows explanation, objections and judgements working together. Read a paragraph, identify its main claim, then ask why the final judgement follows. Use the technique to write your own response to a different question.
For complete offline collections, explore the optional notes and model-essay packs. The topic guides and tools on this page remain free.
