		<description>Hello, TZT.

Grade 12S is a tough year, and the most stressful as most students are busy worrying about their university applications in addition to the exams. You won&#039;t have weekly AMS tests, but you&#039;ll soon find out that that&#039;s not a good thing.

I started 12S two years ago - there&#039;s no way I can remember any weekly questions whatsoever. And even if you find them, you won&#039;t pass 12S with them alone. Your best alternative is to work:

Try to listen properly in class. Even if you don&#039;t feel like it, push yourself to listen. It&#039;ll save you having to work as hard at home. Ask questions, participate in class discussions... It&#039;ll all help. You may not understand the majority of points when explained to the first time, but keep at it.

If you can manage to do a bit of revision at home, that will help a lot too. I know it&#039;s a pain going over material you don&#039;t understand, but try to - read the workbook to get the method, complete the questions you&#039;ve done in class and compare answers at the end. If anything&#039;s wrong with your answer, pinpoint where you went wrong and do it again. Slowly but surely, you should feel the method creeping into your mind. :D

If you keep pushing yourself to do the right things eventually they&#039;ll become a habit. And that is a wonderful feeling I can assure you!

And, finally, you probably know most of the above information, but having someone say it to you sometimes makes the difference.</description>

I&#039;m gonna fail&quot; and to those of us who are desperately trying to remeber a piece of vital information.. it gets sooo annoying :mad: i can honestly say i study for my weekly exams only the day before and the only AMS is math.. and the result a 19.6 average... i have an algebra final tomorrow and i&#039;m actually scared... so there&#039;s a first for everything.</description>
