O' levels in two months. Tips?

Hey, I was in the same situation as you many years ago. About two and a half months left and my mid year papers were full of D7s and E8s. I barely passed my EOY examinations too.

My worried cousin stepped on and helped me sign up for extra tuition lessons for Math, Science and Combined Humanities. I had lessons four times a week with two different tutors.

What the tutors did was to make me explain to them why a certain answer was written that way. I did maybe two or three examination papers after every lesson and was starting to understand the basics without relying on pure memorisation.

Went for my prelims and managed to pass every single subject. Study time that was allocated to us for the last few weeks was used to chiong through TYS.

Went for the examinations with a worried mind, only to be surprised by the fact that the questions were much more easier than I had expected. My guess is that our teachers were being more strict when making our papers, and the preliminary papers were intentionally made to be a lot harder than they need be.

Managed to pass every single subject with all B3s except for Science (B4) and Chinese (C6). Yeah, that's 15 points for L1R4 but it's way better than not trying at all.

So despite what those other comments area saying, it is possible to improve dramatically in two months. Don't give up!
