- Practice with old question papers and sample papers from SEBA.
- Focus on questions that are asked often.
- Spend more time on topics you find difficult.
- For Maths and Science, solve problems regularly.
- For Social Science and English, review key points, how to write answers, and the format for different types of questions.
Last-Minute Tips:
- Make a simple study plan for revision and stick to it.
- Avoid studying late into the night before exams.
- Keep all important exam documents ready, like your admit card.
- Teachers and parents should help create a calm and supportive environment for students.
