The TYS includes actual O Level Mathematics questions from the past 10 years.

By doing the TYS, it will allow you to get a sense of how the questions might come out during O Levels, how it’s being tested and the difficulty of the question.

3. Time management in exams

It is common to not have enough time in the exams especially if you either spend a long time on one question or simply just cannot finish the paper during the exam because of time constraints.

When you are doing the TYS or school practice papers, put a stopwatch in front of you and treat it as if you are sitting for the actual O Level exams. This way, you can estimate how much time you will need for one question which will allow you to better manage your time during exams.
