I do whatever needs to be done, nothing extra in particular unless there is an assessment or something like that. I think if you focus too much on hours/ time periods spent it detracts from the actual effectiveness of the study undertaken.

guys/girls it about understanding not about hours.

sure you can do 10 hrs of maths and still wont know jack, its better if you ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND wtf is going on.

so quit the "how many hours should i do " and do " shit me, i know that now "

If your talking about study (work outside of school) then I suppose like 4 hrs a week which includes tuition and doing a past paper as well. As the above said tho, theres really no need to spend much time as long as you understand the concepts. Overloading yourself with past papers will just drain you mentally and effect your other subs.

When I did it, i never really had time to study. It would just be doing any h/w i had (which was never really much since i did it in class) and then cramming the night before an exam, though maths isn't really a subject you need to cram for - its more skills than knowledge-ish (leaving out circle geo and stuff like that).

I just do my homework nightly, which probably takes 30-45mins...
Studying only starts during exam time for me...
