How to score 10A* in IGCSE (Part IV)

11. Finding your prime studying time It is scientifically proven that everyone has an optimal hour where the mind & body is most productive.  My tutor suggested that I attempt waking up at 4am to study on a daily basis to see if it works. Haha I was that desperate that I tried. About 1 month before my IGCSEs, I rose at 4am each day to study. During the initial few days, it was difficult (duh) but soon after, my body clock adjusted accordingly and I starting waking up at 4am daily even without the help of an alarm clock.  Why is 4am a prime studying time? At 4am, it is soothingly quiet. My pet peeve when studying is having too many distractions and background noise. I want it to be so quiet that I can only hear my own thoughts. Hence, studying at 4am was perfect for me. I literally finished twice as much during those 3 hours as compared to the rest of the day.  Perhaps 4am isn't your prime time, that's perfectly fine as well. Experiment with times u

Hey guys! As promised, here's yet another continuation of  "How to get 10A* in IGCSE". PART (III) 7. Consistency This sounds extremely cliche, but procrastinating & only studying when exams approach is a big no no. Unless of course, you are effortlessly brilliant and can absorb information like a sponge, then eh, I hate you HAHA but assuming that most of us are normal students, I cannot emphasise enough on the importance of keeping a steady pace. What do I mean by that? At the start of every week, set your mind to complete 1 chapter of each subject by the end of the week. Set reasonable goals and stick strictly to it (or at least try to). Consistency is key to ensuring that you don't accumulate a mountain of information to digest just days away from your trials and stuff. At least 3 months before your IGCSEs, you should already be done with your syllabus and should be starting on past year papers. I finished my IGCSE syllabus at the start of Feb

Hey everyone! I'd love to share with you tips on how to score 10A* in IGCSE. This is a continuation of my previous post, which is the "How to score 10A* in IGCSE (Part I)". In this post, I would be sharing my experience of registering for the IGCSE exams, which is far more tedious and complicated than I had anticipated ; Also, I'll include tips that I wished I knew a few months ago. :) I sincerely hope that this helps and leave a comment if you like! 6. Registering for IGCSE exams This tip is applicable if you are a homeschooler or if you intend to resit any papers as a private candidate, which is really common among students, since IGCSE can be taken over 4 intakes. Suffice to say, this tip is for people like me, actually, since I nearly missed the registration deadline for the May/June intake. Yeah, I know, I'm brilliant. If you are registering as a private candidate, you should be aware of two things: Some institutions charge less than

Hey! Jie Fei here, so recently I had completed my IGCSE examination in the May/June intake.  A little back story to this: I used to be in Wesley Methodist School Kuala Lumpur and left early in 2016 (January) to do homeschooling for about five months prior to the exam. In short, this journey has been a massive challenge and adventure for me as I have learned so much, not just through my preparation for the exams, but also through homeschooling. Anyway, I would love to share with you my tips on getting 10A* in IGCSE (part I) 1. Prepare early Here's something you may or may not know: students are allowed to sit for the IGCSEs in more than one intake. What this means is that the 10 subjects you study can be taken over a span of two years, which is a serious advantage, as the papers are more spread out. Unlike SPM, where all papers are taken in one intake only. FYI, there are two intakes per year for IGCSE: May/June and October/November.  This is a common practi
