STUDY TIPS

BEFORE THE EXAM DAY

Do not miss ANY days of school. If you are unwell, come to school to write your exam and then go home. Then you will be able to see how well you know your work and teachers can help you, before the exams, in areas where you are not sure.

Make sure that you have all the notes given in class and that all your assignments are completed. Class work is always added to the exam mark to make your term mark – and it is usually worth as much, if not more, than the exam mark.

At High School you only need to come to school to write the exam. You must make sure that you use your time at home well:

study at set times of the day- ask people to test you, make notes, summarise, practise labelling diagrams and maps – be active in your learning - don’t just read over your work

eat healthy snacks.

exercise every day.

go to bed at a sensible time

ON THE EXAM DAY

You need to arrive for exams at 7h50 latest. You will normally be asked to enter the exam venue at 8h00. There is also 10 minutes of reading time before the exam begins.

If you are not being collected immediately after the exam, then study in the library. For security reasons you are not allowed to walk to the shops.

Bring a book to read. Exams involve a lot of waiting around. Dress in FULL school uniform. Bring all the required stationery and a spare pen. CHECK if you need calculators

or glue etc Wear a watch – you are NOT allowed to have a cell phone on your desk to check

the time.

DURING THE EXAM

Use the 10 mins reading time at the start to read through all the exam questions. Be sure to follow the instructions given for each question. Note how many marks a question is worth so that you know what depth of

answer (how many points) to give. Number your questions EXACTLY as they are numbered on the exam paper. Do NOT use Tippex Simply cross out neatly and rewrite. Don’t sit gloomily on one question which you can’t do - leave a space and move on

– come back to it at the end. If you have time, review and check ALL your answers.

Types of questions Like the questions in your text-books, worksheets, tests and old exam papers.

Knowing basic skills and definitions ( about 20% of the paper)

Routine calculations ( about 30% of the paper)

Complex calculations ( about 35% of the paper)

Problem solving ( about 15% of the paper)



You cannot rely on having understood the work during the year. There is too much new work

you have studied. You MUST do a few examples of each type of question – either from the

booklet, or from old tests, or from past papers.

Use Intelligent Practice - everythingmaths if you are linked up.

You must mark the questions you try – it is no good doing them if you get them all wrong – all

your work and tests should have the correct answers on if you marked efficiently in class.

IEB CAT – Section B This exam is a follow-on from CAT Section A. The topic will be an extension of the work, research and speech you completed for Section A, relating to the role of sport in society.

The exam will mostly likely be an essay.


The CAT, as a whole, deals with the role of sport in society. (See the various themes discussed in Section A.) The quality of your preparation for Section A will most certainly influence the quality of your response for Section B of the CAT. It is strongly recommended that you familiarise yourself with the preparatory tasks provided for Section A. When writing your exam, it is imperative that you carefully consult all aspects of the question (quotes given, and the actual question) as well as the rubric. We cannot stress this enough! No notes, mind maps or diagrams may be taken into the exam.

This section of the IEB CAT will be externally marked.

Please carefully follow all given instructions on the day.

You WILL be examined on your understanding of postmodernism

You WILL be asked to examine Tshepang as a postmodern text, which means you

must have a thorough knowledge of the styles, genres, factual evidence which

informed the text

You WILL be examined on your understanding of the text in performance

You WILL be required to apply your knowledge of postmodernism to an analysis of

your Summative performance (Part A)

You WILL be asked any further application of characteristics, techniques and style

to a new situation or text

The exam will be focused on performance as well as theory


Understand postmodernism in all its glory

Understand why Tshepang is a postmodern text

Understand which elements / characteristics of postmodernism you drew on in

creating your Summative Performance

Understand why, how and to what degree your Summative Performance

succeeded as a postmodern performance
