Exam 1's are very easy to improve on. The difficult one is exam 2. After you learn about something, make sure you do the extended questions. They're a lot harder but doing it throughout the year will pay off.

Watch what mistakes you make and try not to do them again. And do loads of extended response :)

Don't give up, just keep practising. I was terrible at the exams until about a month before them, but I just kept practising and improved, and ended up with pretty decent scores. I'd highly recommend getting started on past questions early, they'll increase your confidence when it comes to the weeks before the exam. :) Good Luck!

Remember to actually think rather than brainlessly rote learning.

Understand the theory behind the exercises. This helps you to apply your knowledge to extended response questions.

Exam 2s are difficult, so spend a lot of time improving them. Start early. I started practice exams around mid July.

Do the exercises, if you're struggling, do all the questions in the exercise or if you want to feel confident. Do checkpoints, A+ notes, A+ exam 1, exam 2, neap and other study guides before SACs so that you can solely focus on practice exams as exam preparation and ace SACs.

Common mistakes are how they often separate the chaff from the wheat
