Hey Navalites,
It’s been a while but hey lets make our blog rock again. Im sure around the corner is this little event we like to call the exams. So here is out team at AKLTG wishing you all the best and do rock it down cos we believe all of you can do it! Here are some tips for you as you go on this journey of conquering this pink elephant we all love to hate-the MID YEARS!
EXAMINATION TIPS
1) Study one chapter. Ask your friend study the other. And another friend another. Then discuss and compare notes! This way you no need to study everything and you get more value!
2) The 80-20 Principle. 80 PER CENT of your notes is useless words like i and the and you and me. 20 is important words like CHEMICAL REACTION or ACIDIC or STAMFORD RAFFLES. Pick out the keywords and remember them!
3) Do breathing exercises. Inhale 5 seconds and inhale the good things in life. Exhale 5 seconds and exhale the negative stuff. Do it 10 times every morning.
4) Do success claps. The more you clap the more successful you’ll be. Okay this is just an energizer to keep you motivated!
5) The Principles of Memory. Know how to make your notes more effective? Make your notes colourful and full of pictures-draw funny pictures even! Link your keypoints together in a funny story like the 30 word list! YOU WILL REMEMBER BETTER!
6) Use 10 minutes each time to TEXT your FRIENDS or play with your cat. Make sure these breaks last only 10 minutes. Remember DISCIPLINE is SOMETHING YOU DONT LIKE but REAP FUTURE REWARDS! So just set 10 minutes each time and obey the clock! Use this technique especially when your mind wanders cos when you WORK you WORK, when you PLAY you PLAY. THE 2 DONT MIX~!
7) Give 100 per cent. This might mean your day will look like this
EARLY MORNING – 10 PER CENT
LATE MORNING – 20 PER CENT
EARLY AFTERNOON – 0 PER CENT
LATE AFTERNOON -20 PER CENT
EARLY NIGHT -10 PER CENT
LATE NIGHT-40 PER CENT
Know when you energy is the highest and maximise it!!! Remember your mind and body is one. So know how to mix the 2 to produce incredible results!
8) Make INSPIRATIONAL POSTERS using DRAWING BLOCKS to MOTIVATE YOU! Paste it all around your room, places you can see-maybe the toilet even!
9) IF I CANT THEN I MUST. This is the law of de-procrastination. It is the very things that you dont want to do that you MUST DO NOW! Like learning and practising quadratic equations lah or chemistry formulas!
10) When life gets shaky, FOCUS ON YOUR OUTCOME.
