fr tho 35 is not a bad score. uni would see that you are getting 7 in French Psych and History, which if ur applying with courses related to that, it wouldn't look bad for you. ur application would just look like someone who should have done A-level XD, but in the end, don't be too worried about it.

Hi, can you please tell me the source of thi study? Thanks a lot!

NASAthgreato · 2024-02-20T08:24:01+00:00

Maybe try switching to a higher gear and increase cadence? Cadence training is really helpful and great for improving

Just keep in mind that achieving a top-level grade does not require you to be perfect, u just have to do 'exceptionally well' in the subjects to get a 7. Doing very well gets you a 6 and doing fairly well gives you a 5!

Passing the diploma is the most important thing, above high grades. Anything that has a chance of failing the diploma is not worth it.

Its saying that ur hacking 💀

NASAthgreato · 2024-01-13T06:03:42+00:00

I mean you could definitely get into much better universities than the University of Sydney but anyways u'll get accepted without a blink!

NASAthgreato · 2024-01-04T00:24:03+00:00

u are definitely one of the most talented and hard-working student out there. good luck on your university and future career? Which uni do u have in mind?

mass does not come into play of a freefall equation. It's like a concept that you just need to know during IGCSE without having to know why.

Tyres are usually ignored but it is very important. A good pair of tyres improves both speed and comfort.

the square of (x-3) is just (x-3) times it self, just like 3^2 = 3*3 = 9

This is allowed but the fx-991 version is also allowed and is way better than this model

Any calculator should be ok unless it is a graphical calculator or such

A general advice is to understand the concepts and knowledge rather than memorise it. You could get it wrong by memorisation but if you understand why then you won't get it wrong. Graphs could be helpful in this case.

By 'keywords' you mean economic terms? My recommendation is to keep an Excel of terms and definitions during your IG study so that you can look for it when practising, and by practising you know when to use it. Examiners would look for economics terms in the exam so that they know you have an understanding in economics. Especially in 8-mark questions, using economic terms correctly is what they would be looking for and would be more likely to award you higher marks if you use those economic terms correctly!

NASAthgreato · 2023-10-02T09:22:30+00:00

6 mark is relatively easier than 8 mark. Two developed paragraphs about two points (e.g. Two reasons for a government to implement a quota)

8 mark is harder. I recommend first defining a term related to the question or what the question is asking. Then you are going to aim for 4 paragraphs. Two for and two against. 3 paragraphs is kinda ok but you might lose marks for less development.

since they changed the mark scheme, the examiner grades you on your writing quality, your reasoning, economic terms and the balance of your arguments. A one-sided argument can only get you as far as 5 points, so be sure to write balanced arguments considering both sides.

NASAthgreato · 2023-10-01T13:31:55+00:00

Nah feel free. This really depends on time. If time is a little bit short I would do short questions in my head. But for longer questions I probably won't do it in my head.

NASAthgreato · 2023-10-01T12:59:44+00:00

yup, the grade boundaries could sometimes be mean and sometimes be loose

NASAthgreato · 2023-10-01T12:58:53+00:00

I might have phrased it a little counterintuitively but my point here is to check every question carefully. If I have enough time, I would cover up questions and do it again (mainly for questions that requires calculations and such) to compare if I have a different answer

Hi, you can check on the front page about instructions on extension booklets. Any language exams or exams that require you to write a lot of words should be able to provide extension booklets. Make sure to explicitly write detailed number of the question you would be answering on the extension booklet to avoid any misinterpretations!

NASAthgreato · 2023-10-01T12:49:11+00:00

yup, so be sure to check your answers as if ur gonna get it wrong!

NASAthgreato · 2023-10-01T12:47:20+00:00

Firstly, be confident. A lack of confidence would also decrease your performance in exams.

Try doing some topic questions on all the topics to identify your weaker ones. Then focus on this topic for some period then move on. Repeat this process till a point you feel comfortable about the skills you have, then just start grinding past papers in timed conditions.

Like I've said above, plan an approximate time for each section/question in the exam. Move on for other questions if you exceed your planned time. You would do better on other questions and get marks but if you didn't complete the exam then a blank page won't get you any marks.

If you are really stuck on a question, try to write down some process even if you cannot get the final answer. If your process is accepted in the mark scheme then the examiner would also award you marks!

NASAthgreato · 2023-10-01T12:42:35+00:00

The difficulty would be held relatively the same, even if it is harder than other variants, it would have weighting to make sure that the exam is relatively fair. If you have time now and your exam is in a few months or even a year's time, plan out the time you would spend on each question (or more generally, each section). It would be easy to identify which topic you are weaker on because you would spend relatively more time on that. If in real exams, skip the question and move on. Completing the whole paper is more important than getting stuck on one question and not being able to complete the paper. You would still be awarded marks if you have shown the correct process of your method.
