Writing
How to prepare for a paper you have not seen, how to read a marking scheme, and how to study alongside a model without cheating yourself out of the practice.
Campus Ghana Part 2
A bad quiz or mid-sem costs a few marks and raises what you need in the exam. That is all it does: continuous assessment is 30 or 40 per cent of a course. What sinks a course is missing the exam, missing too many classes or skipping a course requirement.
Practice questions are not the check you run after studying; they are the studying. Students who answered from memory remembered about half as much again a week later as re-readers - and predicted the opposite. Read once, shut the notes, answer, read the explanation, come back a few days later.
How to Study Part 1
