- EXPLAIN CONCEPTS – take turns to explain difficult concepts to make them more understandable for all
- PRACTICE PAST EXAM PAPERS – Mark yourself strictly
- REGULAR BREAKS AND EXERCISE – 5-10 minutes every 90 minutes . A brisk short walk outside will provide more oxygen to the brain to resume studying.
- SNACK ON HEALTHY FOOD – Take care of your body and mind. Eat more fish, walnuts and dark chocolate. Avoid sugary foods which will cause an energy slump.
- PLAN YOUR EXAM DAY- Drink water and take extra pens and pencils with you. Dress comfortably and keep warm.
- TAKE DEEP BREATHS – Take 5 minutes in the morning to focus on your breathing. Deep breaths will increase your oxygen supply and sharpen your focus
