How to Use Past Papers
Condition yourself
A common mistake is to avoid making the effort to set up exam
conditions – or as near as can be contrived, according to your personal
circumstances. Even if you are able to happily focus on textbooks or lecture
notes with the noise of family, friends, or passengers around you, there’s no
substitute for complete silence when ‘sitting’ past papers. If you can, use a
library – and arrive early enough to bag the quietest, most remote spot.
Failing that, lock yourself in your room and give firm instructions to your
family or housemates not to disturb you unless in an emergency.
Give yourself time to read through the questions before you
start, working out how much time you can allocate to each one. And set the same
strict time limit for the whole paper, from start to finish, as the original
exam allowed – no breaking off to stretch your legs, have a snack, or find a
mate to chat to. Would you have the opportunity to do that on exam day?
The aim is to create an atmosphere that’s as close to exam
conditions as possible – the effect may be at a subconscious level, but it will
be there all right.
