How to Prepare for Chemistry Supplementary Exams

Chemistry is one of the most common subjects in which matric (SSC) or intermediate (HSSC) students fail. This is because chemistry is a more complicated subject than Pakistan Studies or Urdu. Aside from that, education boards like Federal Board, Lahore Board, and Peshawar Board always have lengthy question papers. Students struggle to finish them on time, often having to leave several questions unanswered because the time runs out.

Supplementary exams are considered to be more difficult than regular board exams. Students who have to study for supplementary exams usually give up on getting good grades, even though it’s possible to improve your marks in supplementary exams.

For chemistry supplementary exams in matric and intermediate, here are the things that you must do to prepare:

Review your mistakes in chemistry exercises

Why did you fail? Look at the exercises in your textbooks and past papers and try to figure out where you could have gone wrong. If you have recognized your mistakes, work on fixing them before moving on to revision exercises.

Study with chemistry past papers

Chemistry is a detailed subject, so it’s important to use materials like past papers and book notes to study for its supplementary exams. However, you should be careful about the quality of the materials that you’re relying on. If you realize that the standard of these solutions does not meet the standard of your education board, then look for others.

Use different methods of learning

Practice testing, demonstrative learning, repetition — these are all different learning methods that students in matric and intermediate use to study. If you don’t know which method suits you, try different types. Methods like repetition popular but not very effective. Instead, try practice testing with past papers or textbook exercises if you want to study successfully.

In order to prepare for your chemistry supplementary exam, you need to fully grasp the fundamentals of the subject. In order to strengthen your basics, you should use good explanations to understand. Watching video lectures or even using mnemonic devices will help you significantly!

After all, maths is a significant part of science. In order to successfully balance equations and solve other chemistry problems, you need to improve your math skills. 

Ask your teachers for help where needed

Despite their strictness, teachers want their students to succeed. You should go to your teachers for help in understanding the topics you’re confused about. It’s better to ask for help than wasting time trying to come up with inaccurate explanations on your own.

Chemistry supplementary exams for Federal Board, Lahore Board, Peshawar Board, etc. might be terrifying ideas for students. However, this is a difficulty that you have to overcome in order to pass your SSC and HSSC exams. The tips given above will definitely help you get good marks in your supplementary exams, whether they’re matric board exams or intermediate board exams. Good luck!
