Exams are around the corner and with only a few weeks left to revise, it’s essential to use this time to help your child make the most of their study time. One of the best ways to prepare for upcoming exams is to note and reflect on errors you’ve made on previous exams. This is especially useful if you have already had past exams in the  same subject  or with the same teacher in a previous exam. However, it is a helpful process even when you are looking at  exams from other subjects. As you prepare for your exam(s), do the following: 1.         Practice makes perfect As cliché as it may sound, but practicing for upcoming exams by doing past papers of that subject is highly recommended. Past papers should be readily available at your child’s school and online. Tell your child not to be shy to ask their adviser or tutor for extra test papers and revision notes. 2.         Stay refreshed Eating well and staying hydrated makes the studying process easier. Thi
