🎯 Step 1: Understand the Syllabus (Days 1–3)
👉 Download the latest Cambridge O-Level Mathematics (4024) or your board’s syllabus.
Focus on these main topics:
- Number – fractions, decimals, percentages, ratio, proportion
- Algebra – equations, inequalities, sequences, graphs
- Geometry & Measure – angles, shapes, area, volume
- Trigonometry – sine, cosine, tangent, bearings
- Statistics & Probability – mean, median, mode, probability, data representation
➡️ Print the syllabus and mark topics you already know vs. topics you struggle with.
📅 Step 2: Make a 3-Month Study Plan
Month 1: Concept Building
- Cover two main topics per week.
- Use textbooks like D.R. Morrison, Trevor Johnson, or New Syllabus Mathematics.
- Watch topic-wise YouTube lessons (e.g., Mathsaurus, LearnersCloud, ExamSolutions).
- Solve all examples and end-of-chapter exercises.
- Keep a small notebook of key formulas and methods.
🕐 Example: Week Topics 1 Number & Algebra basics 2 Linear equations & graphs 3 Geometry & mensuration 4 Algebra (quadratics, factorization)
Month 2: Practice & Application
- Start solving past papers (at least 2017–2024).
- Focus on Paper 1 (short questions) and Paper 2 (structured questions) separately.
- Time yourself — aim to complete each paper in the given duration.
- After each paper, mark your mistakes and review related topics again.
🕐 Example: Week Focus 5 Paper 1 practice (Algebra, Numbers) 6 Paper 2 practice (Geometry, Trig) 7 Mixed topic revision & reattempt weak areas 8 Timed mock paper every 3 days
Month 3: Exam Revision & Speed Practice
- Attempt one full paper every other day under timed conditions.
- Analyze every mistake — note down patterns (e.g., misreading questions, forgetting formulas).
- Revise formula book daily (20–30 minutes).
- Focus on:
- Showing working clearly
- Using proper units
- Labeling graphs accurately
🕐 Example: Week Focus 9 Full Paper 1 & Paper 2 mocks 10 Past paper corrections 11 Formula & concept review 12 Light revision + rest before exam
📘 Additional Tips
✅ Practice with real exam-style questions (Cambridge past papers).
✅ Use mark schemes to understand what examiners expect.
✅ Work on speed and accuracy — every minute counts.
✅ If possible, get a tutor for weak areas (even 1–2 sessions per week).
✅ Sleep well, eat healthy, and keep your mind fresh.
If you tell me your exam board (e.g., Cambridge, Edexcel, AQA) and your weak areas, I can make a custom 3-month weekly timetable with topic names and resources.
Would you like me to make that for you?
