Lst Saturday, i went to church for the youth fellowship again....
It's the second time for this month...I guess...
Well, our church had kindly invited the principal of Chung Hua Middle School No.4 to give a speech on ways of handling exams...
Hmm, it's very beneficial.....
Now, let me reveal the secrets behind this...
1} Before exam..
- Actually every teacher will have a syllabus on what the exam questions will be out, like mayb Chapter 3 will have more topics or Chapter wad will have less topics out... So, we can actually asked from them to see which chapter we should focus more...And, if we have an experienced teacher, they can actually spot which questions will be out...So, get some examples from them...
- If like we are sitting for SPM or PMR, we dont have enough time to revise anymore...Dont force ourselves... There's a way... DO EXERCISE!! Well, sometimes, even though u study much, but when u wanna apply wad u had studied on the particular questions, it's just difficult..So, practise through exercise, reference books... (from different materials, do as much as possible) well, this is because once u cant finish ur revision, exercise is the cream of the chapter..It's d summary... If u r fortunate enough, u will also find that some of the questions are just appear to be the same as the exercise u had done...
- Do pass year questions... Dont think that the questions that had been out on the previous year wont repeat again... Who knows?? (u r not the examiner, come on lar!! ) So, just make sure that EVERY QUESTIONS on the pass year questions, u understand and u know how to do them...
- Take care of ur health... Dont eat heavy food before ur exam... Like laksa.... And dont eat too much "very healthy" food like gimseng, bird nest o etc.... Sometimes, ur body might cant stand the "healthyness"...
- Drink water before exam... But not too much... Not until u feel like going to the toilet during exam... Just enough to quench ur thirst... Cos, the principal said, our brain or nerves need water to transfer the information... I guess, so just drink a little then...
- PRAY before u start ur exams... This is according to me... Cos it works!! So, pray sincerely, dont be nervous, just let everything go smoothly.... Dont think too much....
- Do the questions that are easier... The ratio is always like 30% easy questions, 50% intermediate questions then 20% advanced questions...So, make sure u can grab all the 30% and 50% in hand.... The examiner wont stand beside u and insist that u must start from question 1 then 2, 3, 4.... So, if the first question u dont know how to answer, jump!! skip it, then do the ones that u know... But, remember to put a mark on the questions that u skipped... And do it after u have finished the others.... As long as u can finished the questions, it's ok!! NEVER PUT BLANK ON THE QUESTIONS U DONT KNOW HOW TO DO!! Cos, at least u wrote something, sometimes it will give u marks....
- Be careful of the unit used, especially for Maths and Physics.... Sometimes, they used gram, then changed to kilogram again.. so, must circle out all the units, so that u wont miss it... Isnt kinda sad if u really know how to do the questions, but u didnt change the unit...?
- Never discuss after exams.... Students like to discuss after exams... Maybe cos too nervous o wad... But iscussion will just make u more nervous... So, never discuss... "Who cares??" remember this sentence.... Afterall, the next day u wont be sitting for the same paper again, so dont think bout it.... What's more important is the next exam... Cos, once u discussed and found out that u had done the questions wrongly, it will affect ur feelings and ur concentration for the next paper... So, relax... Dont care bout the past...
- After the exam had ended, looked for ur teachers to find out all the answers and solutions... not only the questions u did wrongly, but also the questions that are correct.... I know, sometimes students just tend to "tembak" and luckily they got it correct, but they didnt bother to find out the answer, "It's correct wat!!" this is wad they think... But if the questions are out again, do u know how to solve it?? Hmm.... so, have to learn from ur mistakes....
So, with these, i hope my next exam will be better...
GambaTeh!! Jia you!!! :]
