Hello everyone! It has been a looooong time since the last time I posted something here- basically because I am not bothered and no inspiration to write anything hehe
So I know I am a wee late for this kind of post, but personally, I am that kind of person who likes to search or know how other people actually aced their exam papers. But how we study is different to one another, right? Now let's get to how I studied for my exams
1. Music?
You see, some people listen to songs when they belajar but as for me I listened to movie soundtracks ie Pirates of the Caribbean y'all because ada lyric atu macam distracting pulang so I think soundtracks is better it made me feel very motivated and that study session just went from vapid-being to an epic adventure bahaha
2. The Location
I studied everywhere in the house eg my room, living room, TV room, and the terikah room (panas sia) because being stuck in one room is just, buriiiing berabissss.
Sometimes, few hours before sitting for the exam I'd go to the beach and chill + brainstorm in the car. It's better to be alone than aga ke school early because I did not want to feel panicky when my friends ask me questionssss and that I did not study about it
(To habiskan usin) and since I got my driving license already, I went jalan-jalan during my study leave and went to the public library and cafes. So like, you want other people to see you studying hence the motivation datang tia kirakan mau setaie lah tu ahaii
3. When things get too stressful...
I exercised. I went jogging. Serious. Inda ku kelakar. T hose who knows me should know damn well that I never exercise. Yet I did. And it felt great. But when I felt too lazy to go out I'd do 10-20 minutes of rope jumping. It felt refreshing you know lol
4. Practice
Doesn't matter if you're a science stream or art stream students (I call myself a social science/humanities student its cooler that way) you need to practice your past papers, and time yourself.
As an essay student practicing on my time management was crucial. For example ah, Economics ada two sections- data response and essays. What I did was read the questions and decide which one is easier to complete. Data response should only take you around 15-20 minutes and whether you're done or not, LEAVE IT and START structuring your essay like, your introduction, isi, argument kalau ada and conclusion. Essay students, remember this!!! Conclusion is very very verrryyy important. Siap the essay or not buat tia the conclusion when you only have 5 minutes left. Might save your asses
Story time- For my AS and A2 Economics paper I made a HUGE mistake.. I did not complete my AS data response and what's worse was that I did not do my A2 data response at all. HOWEVERRR, ada however pls, I compensate myself and focused on my essays. I think that's what saved my life
5. What if you can't concentrate...
Chill.. Relax.. Listen to sad, depressing songs about failed love life when my love life is doing just fine... Call your boyfriend and have a nervous breakdown and cry your eyes out aiyah bida but yes. it happened the night before our History papers.
Overall.. well yeah. Thats how I studied for my A Levels. I never studied so hard til 3am before, until A Levels, endless coffee drinking and nervous breakdowns... I made it!
CCBc masa AS. Not sure about A2 but overall- BBDb. That's my result! Sociology is the D. But I'm happy because I do not remember the last time I got good results!!!!! (My previous school nada serious exams so... cincai only)
ciao sorry eh buring hahaha
