No difference in comparison to past years? Just write notes and revise consistently.

Don't.

Haha kidding, just listen in class and do homework (actually do it).

For notes, i didnt make notes, just take them from this site, i maintained an 85% average (top 30% for all subjects cept english ..)

The work load will be greater than in previous years, but the concept of revising cosistantly still applies. Rather than writing notes, I prefer to actually answer questions from the textbook to reinforce what I've learnt and ensure I'm on the right track. i think this is especially the case for Humanities. Nevertheless, if notes are helpful, do them as well :)

This is how I do:
  1. I read over the textbooks (I have got 3 textbooks for each subject) and make notes for each textbook (it takes large amount of time)
  2. I look at all the notes everyday and memorise wherever I have to. But I try to understand before I memorise.
  3. I personally do not like BOS notes even though they are easy to access and use. It is just that you don't learn much from it. YOU LEARN MOST WHEN YOU DO IT YOURSELF!
  4. I listen to others for advices and they give me advices once they read over my notes. (Sometimes, I give my notes to them)
  5. I study Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and English everyday
  6. For other subjects, I make a timetable before exam and memorise. (since they are all stuffs that you have to memorise instead of undertand, it is just better to study just before exam)
