Some words of advice for O level Chemistry MCQ (Paper 1)
Tips to look out for O level Chemistry MCQ:
– Remember: you only have 1 hr to complete 40 questions, that is a maximum of 1 hr 30 sec for each question with zero time for checking at the end of the examination.
– My advice is to spend 1 minute for each question so that you can some extra time to come back and think about the questions you skipped and also do a quick check of your answers (e.g. whether you shade your answers correctly or not).
– Don’t spend too long on ONE question. If you don’t know, just skip first. Don’t waste time on ONE question you don’t know and rush through the last 10 questions towards the end when time is running out. The last 10 questions may be the easy questions to be answered!
– Shade your answers IMMEDIATELY. You can circle the answers on the question book but DO NOT leave it to the last minute to transfer your answers. If you have limited time towards the end, you will rush through the shading and most likely you will shade wrongly. You just need to miss one question for the whole shading process to turn into a disaster.
– Do your calculation questions fast and accurate, take note of careless mistakes.
– Remember the solubility rules at your fingertips and your Qualitative Analysis.
– Read the four options given to you. Do not rush into selecting the option you THINK is correct. Remember to always choose the BEST answer from the four options. Sometimes, 2 options may seem correct at first glance but you are to choose the BEST answer. You need to convince yourself that the other 3 options are WRONG. And you have to do this within the time limit.
– Be confident of your concepts. Study hard and you will excel in your Paper 1.
Good luck and all the best!

Short-term ad hoc Math or Physics coaching for Aug to Oct 2014.
My experiment with ad hoc tuition in June was very successful, with many students of different levels, streams and abilities turning up in separate sessions to clarify their doubts in certain concepts or topics. Since exams are coming and some of you are too busy to attend weekly tuition, I will allocate a few slots a week for individual consultation and coaching in selected subjects. If you are still struggling with some subjects or topics, I would encourage you to set aside time these last few pre-exam weeks to consult a qualified and experienced tutor to improve your grades for your prelims and final exams.
If you need solid coaching in Pri, Sec or JC Math, or Sec or JC Physics, don’t hesitate to contact me at 97860411 and I’ll work out an arrangement for you. You may opt for individual tuition or in small groups of 2 to 4 students from the same class or school. Fees vary depending on the level and number of students, and whether it is on a weekday or a weekend. Students have to come to my centre.
My still available slots (as at 6 Aug 2014) for ad hoc tuition are as follows:
Mondays: 4.00 pm – 5.30 pm; Fridays: 4.30 pm – 6.00 pm; Mon to Thurs: 9.00 pm – 10.30 pm; Saturdays: 11.00 am – 12.30 pm; Sundays: 2.00 pm – 3.30 pm.
If you are a repeat or private student or a home schooler you may also come for consultations in the mornings.
If you need coaching in Sec or JC Chemistry, sessions can also be arranged with our Chemistry tutor.
If you have any queries, you may also call or sms to 97860411, or send an email to principal@singaporelearner.com.
If you are serious about improving your Math, Physics or Chemistry, hope to hear from you soon.
Rgds,
