1

Attack Order

Do easy problem sums first. Mark hard ones with a star and return later.

2

Time Rule

5–6 minutes per 4-mark problem sum. Move on if stuck past 8.

3

Working Rule

Show model, statement of units, final answer with units. Marks come from working, not just the answer.

4

If Stuck

Try smaller numbers, write what you know, or start a bar model from any given quantity.

⚠️ Common Mistakes

Don't fall into these traps

  • βœ•Spending too long on Q17
  • βœ•Missing the units in the final answer
  • βœ•Not writing statements between working lines
Teacher Hidayah's Tip
πŸ’‘

Always leave 5 minutes at the end for checking. Non-negotiable.
