My top 5 study tips
1Familiarise yourself with the syllabus content thoroughly, allowing you to shift your focus from rote memorisation to comprehending concepts and effectively tackling questions.
2Regularly practice past papers or sample questions to familiarise yourself with the exam format, improve time management, and refine your problem-solving techniques.
3Take the time to understand the specific expectations associated with each NESA verb (e.g., analyse, evaluate) to maximise the marks you can receive and demonstrate the required skills in your responses.
4Embrace active learning strategies such as summarising information, engaging in discussions, or teaching others, as these methods enhance understanding and retention.
5Create a well-structured study schedule that includes breaks, diverse subjects/topics, and periodic revisions to maintain motivation, optimise learning, and prevent burnout.
