-
Please post some of your strategies that you had when you fight aganist O Level!
Thnk you.
I know one very nice weapon which is doing TYS...other than that, how abt Time Allocation etc.
1 Day study 2 sub etc etc. -
Can't offer you much help but I'd advise you not to burn midnight oil. Must sleep early so that your mind will be refreshed and alert.
-
Spend more time on your books.
Spend less time on sgforums.
Cheers. -
like 1 hr aim to study finish 2 chapters or wad..
then rest awhile b4 continue it again..
tats my way -
I would say consistency. No point to start panic at the last moment. If you need help, type sgedulab and search. It's a forum for N,O,A,Poly.
I leave that forum because I dont like the system there.. -
for maths .. jus do the tys over and over again for 3 times. science for 2 times..
chinese? watch channel 8 english? watch channel 5... nthin much to study de la =.= -
Strategy that would really work is to ask your parents or whoever who is paying for your internet to ban you from using it. It worked for me as i find that SGforums and basically the whole internet is my source of distraction.
Without the internet, it is wonderous, u can study with full concentration, and more memory space in your brain as it is not filled with rubbish we get from the internet. -
Hmmm, one word to describe my O-lvl is luck.
-
yea true enough, you can believe this, why? cause I'm a living example. I never studying much (lazy) plus never burn midnight oil, can also do kinda well. lol really lucky...Originally posted by Slipshade:Can't offer you much help but I'd advise you not to burn midnight oil.

but still can get in the course i wan la
i was in the arcade to 'destress' during the o lvls
anyway i think 1 good way is mindmaps...helps u to revise easily
and dun do those tough papers...if not u will dunno how to do those more simple 1s(like Os)
serious -
mind map not sufficient for me leh...
mindmap for science(for me) very wordy one... -
Be a strategist.
-
Some people uses Mind map, Some people uses liner notes(just words). For me I work very well with Liner Notes.. Mind Map to me is a BIG No-NO.

its meant for sci anywayOriginally posted by Y_Shun:mind map not sufficient for me leh...

math just like wad they say...tys -
identify your weaker subjects / topics. make sure you spend time on it till you get it. also, discussing about things you don't understand with your classmates can help becus it sets you to think really carefully. for me, it really worked becus sometimes, silly jokes when discussing helps me to remember the solution to a particular question easily. and it really gets etched into your memory.
for maths, practice makes perfect. my maths used to be b3 b4 kind. it's only till the HOD for maths took us in sec4 and gave us tons and tons of questions for homework everyday. that's how i got my a1 !
for sciences, get exposed to the questions that appear frequently and make sure you remember the key points for the answers. when the O's are approaching, try to finish up all the MCQs in the TYS becus questions repeat themselves most of the time. most of the MCQs in the O levels for bio last year were from the TYS.
one of our teachers told us to start preparing bit by bit, slowly it gets more and more intense (like around prelims) and by the time when you're near your O's, you wouldn't have much to worry about. just revising main points and the mistakes you're prone to make. the 'graph' for the amount of effort you put in is like a little hill.
anyhows, i'm glad you're willing to start early. remember to complete all your homework. this way, your revision is considered half done. all the best ! -
Actually I am prepared for getting F9 for O level de... But resule come ar.. I got B4. Damn lucky..
-
i got F9 for a maths at prelim..my form teacher and maths teacher call me to drop a maths..
in the end..i got B3 for a maths...
lesson...teachers always underestimated u..nv trust them..trust ur self more..
btw..i hate my school teacher except for a few subject..the rest are complete sh!t and i dont give a damn -
Sleep.
-
The only thing I did in preparation for my O'level was to do the TYS again and again, and clarifying any doubts I don't know.
I don't know why, but this strategy doesn't seem to work for my A'level anymore (TYS seem useless, the questions just got harder and harder :S) -
Study smart! Plan and prepare!
Fail to prepare, prepare to fail!
-
That's why my maths teacher also told us..Originally posted by :Study smart! Plan and prepare!
Fail to prepare, prepare to fail!
After saying, he sure give this kind of look
-
Be consistent in your studies... go for tuition if you can't understand... then start mugging totally for at least 2-3 months before o levels. I always focus on one subject at a time especially when near exams.
