read the textbook, no seriously
try to generate an interest for the subject, most of the time when a student fails a subject, its becoz he/she doesnt really have a REAL interest in the subject
try applying chemistry to your daily life, might spark an interest to find learn more

TYS is a necessary evil :twisted:
if you're doing combined science (eg bio/chem, phy/chem) and you really don't know if you're going to do too well for chem, then focus a lot on your other sub. haha that's what I did, I'm an F9-er for chem :lol: but I love bio so I ended up with a B3 for combined science overall 
If you're at the O level standard i think you can get those redspot guides at popular if they're still in print.. they have questions and then the points-to-note are in a coloumn by the side.. that thing saved my life for my humanities man.
TYS is also a must.. try to do the entire book at least twice before the exams proper.. its the only way to get the grades. unless you're a genius, in which case u wouldnt be asking for help..

Blasting TYS like mad is useless unless you understand the concepts (for chemistry anyway)
What you need to do is sit down with your textbook and pick out the key concepts from each chapter. Then fill up the rest by memorising the key reactions.
An F9 to an A2 is possible. I did it.

You guys still have ten year series?!?!
Chemistry...chem is hard. Unless you really like lab lessons (which I totally did - blowing up test tubes, mixing colorful potions, sigh those were the days)
Physics blows lah
Bio is the best - u get to cut sheep/pig/whatever organs!!!!
back to the advice: it's easy once you master the TYS. Really. It's all just there.

^^ chem labs times are the pinnacle of sec sch life. one will nvr forget how ur hand got burnt by careless forgetting to turn off the bunsen burner, the pungent odour of conc. hydrocholric acid, wine-making in class :lol: ah the life.. 8)
make notes, write out keywords, do out the most impt points you've gotta remember. and yes, if at o lvl standard memorise all your QA stuff and electrolysis stuff also organic chem! ok basically almost all the major topics. then go through all your notes. and start on ur tys. skip the mcq qns, go straight to the section 2, go to sch or get ur tuition tcher to explain to u where u lost ur marks at. for students, most of the time its at the KEYWORDs, so learn to use the keywords. attack your weaker topics.
tts wad im doin. it helps ALOT really. from failed to pass! yay!
