6. THE ISSUES – BEFORE THE
EXAM
Students exhibit weakness in exam preparation, such as:
 Poor organisation of revision and failing to prepare a
timetable;
 Not being able to prioritise the most important aspects to
revise;
 Revising but not concentrating or misunderstanding what
revision is;
 Having insufficient subject notes to revise from;
 Showing uncertainty about tackling the exam itself

7. THE ISSUES – DURING THE

There are a number of factors that frequently cause students to lose
marks in exams.
