Tips on how to Excel in Integrated Programme

The challenges of the Integrated Programme may be overwhelming for many of us, especially for those of us who are not well informed about the expectations that the school has for the students. This is a guideline on the mindset you must have, and steps you can take to excel in the IP system.

  1. Humble yourself

For many students who have entered the IP system, you would have scored at least 250 cut off points and above, making you the top 10% of the P6 cohort. Most students of your calibre would also have been top students in your individual primary schools, enjoying years of praise and accolades bestowed upon you by teachers and parents alike. In IP schools however, you are a dime a dozen, and the “miracle” that you pulled off in PSLE may not work as well as you think it will from Y1 onwards. Secondary school education is about discipline and practice, unlike PSLE questions. Humble yourself and be open to learning new things, as well as consulting your teachers and even your peers. You are in a new world now, with many people who may be more academically gifted than you. Seek help whenever necessary and keep an open mind.

  1. Be proactive

Learning never ends in the IP system. Unlike Express stream, some IP schools may not have an official textbook or guideline to follow, and teachers use their personal notes and base their syllabus off their own judgment. Being proactive allows you to anticipate such challenges and prepare for them before it becomes disastrous. Consult your seniors, and read deeply into topics that are taught. You will not find a guide in the O-level texts, but you can use them for practice before you are taught that certain topic. The school expects you to learn ahead, and you might be surprised to find that many of your peers are doing so during the holidays. Be proactive and don’t idle away your time.

  1. Learn smart

I have lost count of the amount of students I have seen struggle with the IP system because they hold on to the idea of rote learning and memorization. Unless you have a photographic memory, memorization will not serve you well. On the contrary, it will sabotage your grades. The IP system is about critical thinking, and often poses open ended questions. However, you can spot certain trends, and work more on such problems in anticipation of them coming out in exams. Learn what’s on your formula sheet, and only remember equations that are not on it. Take note of what teachers emphasize on during lessons and tutorials. Don’t blindly memorize, instead, link the information to each other and understand how they interact. Make efficient cheat sheets and short notes on your own. Another pro tip, the IP syllabus typically likes to omit or test less of what is not in the A-levels, so you might want to proceed with that in mind.

  1. Plan ahead

Plan your time well, and do not procrastinate. Attend to your assignments, homework and project work immediately as you might not get the chance to do so. This is because there can be events such as SYF, bringing about extra CCA sessions, leaving you drained and tired. Teachers can suddenly assign new projects or heavy workloads without coordinating with one another. Surprise quizzes may be conducted. There is a reason for this, and it is to prepare you to be a leader in a volatile working world. Plan ahead, do not procrastinate, and put in a consistent effort every single day. Remember, your score is determined over the year, not on one single exam.

 

Lastly, try to have fun in school. There are many great opportunities for you to take part in and show your leadership skills, but at the same time, you can make many great lifelong friends. Even as a working adult, I still keep in close contact with most of my friends from IP, and we are still inspiring each other to improve and grow together.
