💪📖 Exam Ready: Pre-Exam Tips, Revision Techniques, and Subject-Specific Guides to Achieve that 7 🤩!
Monday, May 12th, 2025
Happy Monday!
Today we’re diving into pre-exam tips, revision techniques, and subject-specific exam tips 📖💭. As we approach the middle of May, for our DP2 students this means exams are already half-way done, and for our DP1 students this means the end of the school year is approaching!
Other than general exam and revision technique guides, in today’s newsletter the subjects in the spotlight include Geography, Biology, Economics, Spanish A/B/Ab Initio, Mathematics AA/AI, and Chemistry .
Additionally, by overworking and containing all the stress within yourself, burnout😰🔥can become a real issue. Because of this don’t forget to do something for yourself; whether it be talking a short walk, spending some time with your friends and family, or other forms of self-care🧘♀️🌿.
Keep it up, you’ve got this!
