Cramming For The JC

    What's the best advice for cramming for the JC?
    Like I have been studying but probably not enough (5 nights a week, 2 hours) and no weekends, I can do study in school but I can't study at home at all.

    So should I maybe study in my granny's house or something because after school study is stopping just at the time I need it most and I can't study at home. Also, what is your best cramming advice!

    Especially for History and Science, I study all the chapters, summarise them and do an exam question, but I just forget the rest of the information.

    I am seriously fretting about this! I know the JC doesn't mean everything but I still want good results so the parents will be proud you know?

    No I don't know.Work for yourself,impressing your parents shouldn't be what motivates you.

    It's probably not best to cram. You still have time to study. Just figure out the way you learn best and use it. Maybe spend a bit more time studying.

    I often can't study in my bedroom as my brain associates it with leisure. I often go to the library but I suppose your Nan's house would be good too.

    OP, don't get good grades for your parents, get them for you and your future.

    I have to disagree with ya lads with ''only study for yourself crap'' ..whatever does the job IMO .... some of the best didn't study for 'themselves'

    Heck even Isaac Newton didn't start out his studies for himself. He got bullied in school and challenged a bully to a fight he won but wasn't satisfied so he studied hard to beat the bully academically and became one of the greatest scientists to walk the face of the earth.
