Topics and tips

• Prioritise your time: Find a study schedule that works for you. Take breaks and get enough sleep.
• Target your weaknesses: Focus on what you do not know, not just what you think you should know.
• Create your ideal study space: Optimise your environment for maximum productivity and remove distractions (like phones and computers).
• Ask for help: Understand when and how to reach out for support - from your teacher, parents, friends, and team/classmates.
• Build essential study skills: Develop the habits that will set you up for success. Know your syllabus, keywords/theories/terminology. Strengthen your recall skills and memory.
• Handwriting: If your marker cannot read it, you won't get the marks.
