Exam Preparation Tips
Help your child prepare effectively for the entrance examination with these practical tips.
Review Core Subjects
Focus on reviewing Mathematics, English, and Science concepts taught in primary school. Pay special attention to problem-solving in Math, reading comprehension and writing in English, and basic scientific principles.
Practice Time Management
Help your child practice completing sample questions within time constraints. This builds confidence and reduces anxiety during the actual exam. Teach them to allocate time wisely across different sections.
Develop Critical Thinking
Encourage your child to solve puzzles, brain teasers, and logic problems. Our exam evaluates not just knowledge but the ability to think critically and apply concepts to new situations.
Establish a Study Routine
Create a consistent study schedule in the weeks leading up to the exam. Short, focused study sessions of 30-45 minutes with breaks are more effective than cramming for long hours.
Ensure Proper Rest
Make sure your child gets adequate sleep, especially the night before the exam. A well-rested mind performs significantly better than one that is tired or stressed.
Maintain Healthy Habits
Provide nutritious meals and encourage physical activity during the preparation period. A healthy body supports a healthy mind. On exam day, ensure your child has a good breakfast.
