hmm~ i'm really sorry to say this but i think it's really late to start studying right now when the exams are in a week.
i mean wot have you been doing all this time??

anyways... 12th may.. your first exam must be phy right? qp_06 i think
the practicle to alternative exams are not that difficult~
you should solve more past papers
i solved some qp_06 yesterday and it's really easy to guess wot they're gonna ask cuz there're just slightly different questions on the same topics.

there's always with the measuring stuff, circuits, mirrors and graphy~ everything's logical
you dont really have to know anything like in detailed cuz they give you the formula and tell you everything you've got to do
and the other papers are in june so you still have time for those~
it's the same with bio and chem. for bio, you always have to know the characteristics of vertabrates and invertb. or structures of a cell, graphs, enzymes, seed~
for chem, there're always tests for gases and metal ions, names of the instruments used in experiments, electrolysis, rate of reaction, graphs

for maths... you've just got to solve more excercises cuz if you dont, you wont be able to pass the exam
and there're always the same types of questions too
if you take core then it must be quite easy~ i'm taking extended and there's always 1 or 2 questions i cannot solve, it's kinda annoying...

well~ hope that helped... and good luck!

guys right now passpapers are the right way to go... get familiar with how questions are asked nd time urself...
if u dunt understand a question in the passpapers ..refer to Markschemes and see who it is done..
revision and papers both will happen together... best way to go

Math Revision = printout all pastpapers (from 1999 - 2008 (nov and jun))
                      if you have any doubts, post it on the forum, and many students will help you.

Bio Revision = Learn all ur notes BY HEART, learn the diagrams, do PLENTY of pastpapers !! (1999 - 2008)

Chem Revision = Go through ur text book and notes then PLENTY of pastpapers

Phys Revision = Learn all the equations (ive posted them in the forum) and main points, PLENTY of ppapers !

So basically, u go through ur notes, learn them, and do past papers !!

Pastpapers can be found in (1) www.freeexampapers.com
                                     (2) www.xtremepapers.com

Goodluck and dont worry a lot, and dont forget that ur doing ur best (or i hope u are  :P)

yeah~ x]

but the only thing for maths is that even though there's the markscheme, you need to understand the question and the way to solve it and that's real prob~

i'm really glade to hear that from you, Azeta
dont worry, everyone's been that way~
i started studying not long ago either cuz i thought that i still had a lot of time so i was going really slowly
but when i found out, i mean my friends told me that there was only a week left till the exams
thanks goodness to the mocks~ i studied for those so i tried to think positively even though there isnt a lot of time left
but i've been working really hard these days
i just like solved all the paper 6 i found of bio, phy and chem
plus about 20 papers of maths in 4 days, lolz~ that was a hell lot, lolz

well~~ once again, good luck!! x]
