Theseare some trial papers that I had found. They are from years before the new STPM system started, so all the questions from Semester 1 to Semester 3 are combined in 1 trial paper. What I used to do is that I will read through the questions and determine which are the ones that are currently in my syllabus and print those questions and answers out. It is not that hard as usually the questions for Semester 1 are usually in the front, followed by questions for Semester 2 and so on. Good luck guys!

"So you'll still be going to schools and sitting for exams like SPM? "

"It used to be a terminal system, but now we can study in semesters like other Pre-University students too."

"I see, that's great!"

Since 2012, Form Six students have been using a newly revised syllabus throughout 3 semesters where the candidates will sit for an examination at the end of the term. The same applies to Science subjects like Physics, Chemistry and Biology too.

Each semester, students will study chapters of various Physics themes that will expose them to Pre-University level Physics. The chosen themes are mechanics and thermodynamics, electricity and magnetism, oscillations and waves, optics and modern physics.

For instance, after you've answered the questions that are related to Linear Motion (Kinematics), you can check whether you are able to apply and use equations of motion with constant acceleration and sketch and use the graphs of displacement time, velocity-time and acceleration-time for the motion of a body with constant acceleration.

When you've gradually mastered the answering techniques and your overall comprehension of the paper, you can then move deeper to study the pattern of recurring questions. This is especially relevant in terms of calculation questions and descriptive questions.

You'll be familiar with physics concepts that are frequently asked in the form of definitions, characteristics as well as what is required to secure full marks when you're solving an equation to a problem.

Firstly, having a private tutor means you can dedicate more time to "relearn" and "remaster" all the chapters in detail. During lessons, you'll get to review the core physics concepts systematically without having to "wait" for others or to rush through the syllabus.

Secondly, you will receive guidance and tips from your Physics tutor on how to answer better for your actual papers. Be prepared to do lots of past year papers, trial papers from other states/ schools as it serves as a great way to dive deep into each section of STPM Physics.

It is never enough to stop at learning and memorizing the facts without putting them all on paper to see how much you truly know to apply them and connect the dots. From there, you'll know the right way to score.

Thirdly, private tutoring sets you into the rhythm of active learning. The act of repeated lessons will cause you to feel confident whenever you are doing your final revision up till the moment when you're answering the questions each semester.
