Jun Teng’s Success Motto: “Through Heaven and Earth, I alone am responsible for myself.”

Q: What results did you get for Combined Science in the Sec 3 EOY exam last year and the Chemistry WA1 this year?

My overall grade for Combined Science in the EOY exam last year was 60% or B4. To better this result, I worked hard for the Combined Chemistry WA1 this year and scored a well-deserved distinction, A1.

Q: What did you do in your preparation for the WA1 this time round and how was it different from last time?

Going into Sec 4, I made sure that I was more attentive in class. I took the initiatives to take down important points and notes on what the teacher had explained and emphasized during the lessons. This note-taking benefitted me as the stuff which I took down proved to be of importance within the topics. Additionally, I did thorough revision of the topics that were tested in the WA1, I reviewed and checked that I had memorised all the details of the core concepts. I also did consistent practice on both the MCQs and the structured questions to hone my application skills before I sat for my WA1.

Q: What does the tutor in the Achievers’ class do to help you in this subject?

In Sec 3, I was clueless about what Chemistry was about. However, I am able to gain insights on this subject @Einstein. The Chemistry tutor explains the important concepts in a clear and simplified manner not forgetting to emphasize what is relevant and crucial, this helps me to pay extra attention and grasp clearly the important stuff. At the same time, the questions that are posed during the lessons are answered to the fullest details by the tutor.

Q : What is your target for the O level this year? What will you do to achieve it?

My target for the O level is A1 for Combined Chemistry.
I will continue my good revision program that has been proven to be effective in my WA1. I will attempt more questions from other school past year exam papers to gain more exposure and further improve my answering techniques.

What Team Einstein says:

5 STARS performance, Jun Teng! U r off to a bright start in Sec 4 with this marvelous result in the WA1. With your staunch determination and superb efforts, U are definitely on the right track to achieve your target distinction in the O level!!
