1. If you do not finish the paper you cannot get top marks. For that reason,
it is important to keep to the time recommended for each
question. This is especially true for the first three questions
which are worth fewer marks than the last three.
2. Remember the higher mark questions come at the end of the paper. If you do
not leave time to do them well, you will have trouble getting
a good grade.
3. Learn the definitions that accompany each section in the ReviseWise History
textbook. They are useful for questions 3 (Short-Answer questions)
or question 4 (People in History questions) on the Junior
Certificate exam papers.
4. Note important names, dates and events in your revision. Marks are given
for historical facts that are accurate and relevant (i.e.
facts relating to the question asked).
5. In questions 4, 5 and 6, when you are using an answer book, remember to write
the question number in the margin.
