Term 3 Reflections

Term 3 has finally come to and end.
Term 3 would be my greatest regretful and unsatisfactory term for science throughout the term. There were many learning points- that is for sure.

Results:

29/40
A2

The topic this term was supposed to be the easiest topic for the year, and yet I scored 29/40, missing an A1 by a 1 mark.

Reflection:

I dare to say that I have worked very hard. In fact, this term was the term in which I worked hardest for. I finished 3 chapters of the Longman 1001 Multiple Choice question series for O' Level Physics. I was able to answer question that were above the caliber tested in the test itself, but yet I scored disgraceful marks.

After some thought and getting over the feeling of injustice, I have understood and found the reasons to why I scored such a score. There is one main reason: Not Studying Smart. The fact is that I HAVE indeed studied, however not SMARTLY. I did not stick as closely to the syllabus and as a result confused myself. I was also overly confident after I completed the exercises. I should learn to revise not ONLY external practices but more importantly, the school's and original practices given by the school. At the very end the paper is set by the school so it is important to refer and understand the way the paper is set by the school in order to ensure less confusion.

I hope that I will do better for EOYs.
