Bio - understand concepts. Some need to be memorized, but those that doesn't need, make sure you understand the concepts for easy memorization.
And learn how to draw properly. Prepare a sharp pencil, preferably a non-mechanical one. Bring a compass if needed, but then I seldom bother.
Chem - Same thing. Actually, I never studied for Chem, it was a natural subject for me.
Physics - Memorize the definitions will do and learn to apply them. If can't, at the least memorize the formulas and understand them to apply.
A Maths - you need understanding and a lot of practise. Either one will not suffice. I understood, but I never practised, ended up with C6.
Combined humanities - I say just crap your way with facts. In schools, I scored As, in Os, I scored a C. I don't know what is wrong. -
your science and math... They have standard answer...Originally posted by dbowie:Is it. I need help here because I intend to get in good JC. Which paper is easier to score? -
Combined humanities I did scored A's throughout it schools but got a C's...Prehpas my teacher marked the paper too leniently?Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Bio - understand concepts.

btw does o's paper repeats 10yrs series question, or in a format similar to those in 10year series? -
the most sick thing is they may moderate ur final results! so gd luck if too many o lvl students get distinctions hor. ur grade sure drop
-
My teachers are strict with the marking... I guess it's just a matter of what they perceive as L1, L2, L3 or even L4 answers.Originally posted by soulwinner:Combined humanities I did scored A's throughout it schools but got a C's...Prehpas my teacher marked the paper too leniently?
I remember for Sec 1 and 2, I never passed humanities, but for Sec 3 and 4 did well.
And two teachers taught me, so I guess this as one of the reason. -
Similar format, chances of you finding a same question is rare. Or at least, not in the papers that I did.Originally posted by dbowie:true.

there is still L5
-
Rare. Mostly L1 to L4.Originally posted by dbowie:there is still L5
That will depend on how many marks the question is awarded and other factors. -
for SS that is. I am quite fcuked up with my SS.. probably because I dont know how to answer it. Does Olevel SS paper test you contextual knowledge??
-
in my time.. teacher will spot what will come out for us.Originally posted by dbowie:for SS that is. I am quite fcuked up with my SS.. probably because I dont know how to answer it. Does Olevel SS paper test you contextual knowledge??
dont study all. no time.
pick all those u think will come out.
i bought this pocket handbook thingy for SS.. helps alot
all the main pts thre.
most impt, the main pts.
the source based question is tough.
make sure u understand the questions. and know what are they asking for.
think thre is a trend. -
The best is to study everything. Don't spot questions. While almost all the time the teachers will be right, there are quite a few occasions that they are wrong.Originally posted by nutpinko:in my time.. teacher will spot what will come out for us.

Sometimes, the questions can also cut across a few chapters, so even while your teachers are right about it, you never know about those other chapters.
Rather, put them in the form of domains.
For example, Education & Health is one domain. Then put the chapters that are related under this domain. A few chapters will be looking at Singapore's system, and a few chapters will be looking at another country's system.
