best to start now...adopt suitable strategies for each subject
'cause one strategy of studying may not work for all...
let's see...
english - this is a hard one...try to complete this book called
"1100 words you need to know"
chinese - O level chinese is just 1 week away...nothing much you
can do if you are taking it on 29/5...just practice on some past
year papers or assessments and read newspapers...
higher chinese - (i don't take it myself, but reckon this is just
like chinese except for the summary part) same as chinese just that
O level higher chinese is in november...read and read and
practice...nothing much else
emaths - practice and practice.
amaths - same as emaths.
combined humanities - depends on what elective you take.
SS - get the facts right. sharpen your writing skills too, or you
will lose marks due to incoherent language which might make your
answers look screwed.
elective geography - it's plain regurgitation. revise the content
over and over again. nothing much else.
chemistry - tough one. revise content and do ten-year-series.
memorise stuff like the valencies and reactivity series.
biology - as a clarification, biology papers are no longer about
memorizing and vomitting facts onto the exam paper. lots of
application and higher order thinking questions (damn it! thinking
& application questions sux! damn hard to answer in words!).
memorize, yes, and do ten-year-series too, it might be of some
help.
physics - get the facts right and do ten-year-series.
in fact, word has gone round that this year's o level papers are
gonna be real tough 'cause the cohort last year had it easy. it is
always ideal to start early. like what the others said, make notes
for revision. good luck!
cheers!
(back to studying; i had a L1R5 of 25 this mid-year exam alone.
sheesh.)
