PRIORITISE KEY TOPICS


Focus on major chapters and topics that carry more weight in the syllabus.
Highlight the areas that require additional practice and spend your remaining
time reviewing these concepts. Instead of cramming, concentrate on revising
common questions and essential ideas.

2. MAINTAIN REALISTIC STUDY PATTERNS


Divide your day into study blocks, dedicating each block to a different subject.
Balance time between studying new materials and revising older concepts.
Incorporate short breaks to prevent burnout. Use techniques like the
Pomodoro method for 25–30 minutes, then take a 5-minute break. After
completing four such sessions, take a longer break.

3. SOLVE PREVIOUS YEAR PAPERS

Practice past years' question papers to become familiar with the exam format
and question types. Simulate exam conditions by timing yourself. This practice
not only improves your confidence but also enhances your speed and
accuracy.

4. FOCUS ON REVISION
At this stage, avoid starting completely new topics unless necessary. Instead,
revisit the material you've already studied. Create short summaries, notes, or
flashcards for key formulas, definitions, and points. These can serve as quick
revision tools in the days leading up to the exam.

5. LOWER STRESS WITH RELAXATION TECHNIQUES


Managing anxiety is crucial for optimal performance. Try these simple
relaxation methods:
 Deep Breathing: Inhale deeply through your nose, hold your breath for a few
seconds, and exhale slowly through your mouth. Repeat for 1–2 minutes to
feel calmer.
 Positive Visualisation: Imagine yourself confidently sitting in the exam hall and
answering questions with ease. This can boost your self-assurance.

Remember, a little nervousness is normal and shows that you care about the
outcome. The key is not to let it take control.

6. SLEEP AND EAT WELL


As exams draw closer, resist the temptation to stay up late studying. Proper
sleep (6-7 hours a night) is vital for memory retention and focus. Eat nutritious
meals that include fruits, vegetables, and nuts, which are known to support
brain function. Stay hydrated and avoid caffeine, as it can increase anxiety.

7. DO NOT COMPARE AND STAY POSITIVE


ADVERTISEMENT

Avoid comparing yourself to peers, as everyone has their own learning pace
and methods. Focus on your progress and trust your preparation. Remind
yourself that you've studied hard and are ready to perform well.
