How to score well in General Science
- Practise writing definitions and cause–effect links in your own words — that is what the application part of a creative question rewards.
- Review every diagram and table separately — the MCQ section draws heavily on them.
- Build answers around everyday examples to score on the higher-ability part.
A preparation routine that works
- Read the textbook chapter yourself first and get the core idea — starting with a guide book leaves the concept half-formed.
- After each chapter write a one-page note in your own words: definitions, formulas or key points, and an example.
- Solve that chapter’s creative and MCQ questions from past board papers, then check your answers.
- Reserve one day a week for revision only — skim every earlier chapter note.
- Sit at least one full timed model test a month, then work out exactly where you are losing marks.
