how smart can you get when you can't even spell properly?
 
DARCH here! lol

i started studying for my O's only a week or two before the actual dates. a choice that i wouldn't recommend to anyone cos you would have to study late into the night to finish what you want! but then again i'm a nocturnal guy...so yea
 
Guess I like studying cos for tests I study two weeks before. And for exams.. 2months 8) My future la, I dont wanna take risks with it. :)
 
just be practial ba. thts what i have to say..

and my friends. yea i dont have many. cause i'm an emo kid.

and a research done in oxford shows that you dont have to get spelling right for people to understand you. well there was that chain mail sometime ago..

like you can keep saying i want to study hard and score well when all the time you evade the hard topics and do those that you already know.

and like dont ask the teacher questions, dont listen in class..

ah i know how to describe. its called studying with effect. and applying it often. you can learn the whole of Extreme's More than words looking at the guitar tabs, but it would be so much easier if there was someone to teach you. and if you play it all the while soon enough you can memorise it by heart. :)
 
I don't know how many of you are taking the Os this year, but a few words of advice:

1) Don't be overconfident. Very often, overconfidence can lead to your downfall.

2) Be prepared. Some like to spot questions and if it works out, then that's fine. But if it doesn't and you get caught out without any backup, that's the end of it.

3) The most important of all; be sure you get enough breaks during your study time. There is no point trying to squeeze everything non-stop because your mind can only absorb material in short bursts.

Some of my fondest memories were of the O levels and the process of studying for it...helps that Vai and Satriani were my official soundtracks. :D
 
Good advice there! Plan out WAY in advance. Don't leave it to the last month. Hell, not even the last two months. HALF THE YEAR!! Be safe and not sorry.
 
look at me, mug one week before. HAHA.

i dont recommend it to ANYBODY. you lose about 5 hours of sleep a day, get extremely sick and almost collapse.
 
Don't forget that your TYS is going to be your bible all the way till the Os. Do all the questions once through, work on school papers, then go back to your TYS again. If you have no problem doing all those questions, you'll be pretty safe.

And remember, when in doubt, ASK.

If your teacher is a moron, find someone who knows what they're talking about and CLARIFY. If possible, get all this done before you delve too deeply into each individual topic.
 
hmm.. i dunno bout u guys but my teachers actually worked their asses off harder than we the students did.. hahaha!!

they practically gave the 2 weeks break a last minute ditch attempt to help those who wanna get a1's... after school classes we're held till late and all that...

hell, my english teacher gave her students a 2 hours worth of good tips to apply to the paper one of english.. learn some complex sentence structure and applied em..

but i guess thats why i got a b4.. if not a c5.. hahaha.. i give all my sincere thanks to my teachers.. especially my english teacher, my chemistry teacher..

MISS THIRU!! im sure some of u would know her...:D... initially called me a no hope guy from sec 3 until late sec 4, than she came clean and told me u can get a1... hahaha... but i got a grade lower than a1... but still i made her happy which's what ALL teachers wants to see when their students smile and tears of joy comes out as they know a birght future awaits em...

so guys, if u haven't studied for ur o's.. DO IT RIGHT NOW... don't procrastinate..... i started late though but my teachers push me all the way to the end.. unless u have that kinda teachers, but it all depends ON YOU!

my class motto:

FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION, IT ALL DEPENDS ON YOU
 
marc got it right, chances are they'll be happier to see you get an a1 then you. respect to all teachers regardless of level, its no easy job being one. i mean can you imagine teaching yourself?
 
i cant imagine myself as patient as my teacher.

well, i was a really naughty boy. making noise in class, giving problems. mischief. that kinda thing.

alwayas play in class.

but during sec 4 and sec 5. i kinda worked hard.

i thank them for not giving up on me.
imagine, the studnet at class play play. after school go kacau the teacher ask for help. ironic right?

but one thing for sure, i do have plans to hold a teaching position someday.
 
Do it....it's one of many ways to pay back to society what they have done for us. Being a teacher is not easy, especially now in the present context. With this, my wish to all O and A level candidates:

"All the best, and hope you get the grades that you want....and not the grades you deserve." :lol:

....jus' kiddin'.
