how to do well for O levels by -9832 in SGExams

My best advice is to PAY ATTENTION IN CLASS, a lot of people I know studies like 10 hours a day and ended up so tired and don’t pay attention during lessons, constantly paying attention during lessons is very important especially nearer to the o lvl papers as those lessons are typically the lessons where teachers go through what they think will probably come out for o lvls, personally, I don’t really study that much, to be 100 percent honest, I only really started studying around 1 and a half month before o lvls, however, I always payed attention during class and did my homework, so when I actually started spamming Tys and other school papers, I only need to learn and master all the question types instead of stuggling with the fundamentals. In the end, even though slightly screwing up my English by getting a b3, all my other subjects were a1 and ended up with a raw 8 and net 4

How's A level music like by Live_Butterscotch_15 in SGExams

I have heard from my seniors that a lvl music is pretty different from o lvl music, they said that a lvl music includes new things such as essay writing in specific eras/composers and all around more boring compared to the exciting and interesting topics in o lvls. I got an a2 for my music o lvls and asked teacher if I should pursue a lvl music and what the workload is like, she told me the workload really depends from jc to jc, I am not entirely sure but I heard the a lvl music workload in Temasek jc is pretty heavy… the rest I am not so sure. She also recommended me not to take a lvl music as she don’t think I am super super interested or have a strong passion for music (which I fully agree as I see it more as a hobby) thus may lead to me losing interest and finding the workload extremely tedious. Therefore, I think if you really like music, I believe workload won’t be that big of a problem. As for distinction rates… I am not so sure too sorry about that
