GENERAL TIPS FOR EXAM Please ensure that your child will not study late at night. All exams are held in the morning. They have to be at their sharpest in the first half of the day. Exams require both concentration and stamina. So they must stay fit, eat healthy and do exercise. This is the time to focus on presenting what they have studied in the best possible way. They should practice writing answers as if they are talking to the examiner who is going to mark their paper.
