Learn the strategy most student use to
successfully pass any examination they
come across. Recently Graduants from
Secondary schools make the mistake of
treating external exams like internal exams. JAMB, WAEC, POST JAMB and other External boards set questions to measure how Time conscious & Smart a student is. Following the guide lines below from schoolvibesng.com 100% should enable you pass your exams without hoping on MALPRACTICE 1. BE OPTIMISTIC The term optimistic can also be seen as positive , that is being positive right from the day you register for the examination. Plant the thought of success in your mind, eradicate fear. Say to your self “VICTORY IS MINE”. 2. CENTRALIZE YOUR FOCUS : Make that exam be your thought every now and then. Wake up in the morning? Doing your Domestic chores? Eating? Sleeping? I mean every now and then. These helps in creating a Centralized focus and enables you to have a neat mindset. 3. ATTEND AN EXTRA LESSON : Learning from a school is good but learning from a tutorial center after school is SUPER GOOD. The human memory is fragile, it forgets things easily. you might think your high school, college teacher has taught you all but trust me, all you learnt was just 20%. Go for extra lessons and obtain the rest to be on the safe side. 4. READ,READ & READ: surely, don’t forget to read your notes, past questions and any other educational resource you’ve purchased. 5. LET TIME BE YOUR BEST PAL: Never joke with time, especially time to attend lectures, time to read. The perfect time to read is when you are alone maybe in the night. I prefer from 12am to 3am(3hrs). 6. KEEP & ASSOCIATE WITH STUDY BUDDIES: Associate with fellow students that motivate you to read always. The habit of reading should be your best tool in these phase. Never let go. 7. Make Research and Keep Developing : The internet is a wide place. it contains things that were not written in BOOKS. Use these place to gather information that would help in developing you mentally. Most answers to some questions might be from a resource you found online. 8. PRAYERS : Don’t forget to pray daily to your God. he is the God thatching answereth all prayers. |

Moving from high school to college can be a big transition for students. If you’re stressing over this new life chapter, there are ways you can prepare before even stepping foot in a classroom or dorm. From researching academic support to developing strong technical skills, the following tips can help incoming freshmen get organized and build a foundation for college success. 1. READ AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE College course work consists of substantially more reading than is required in high school. Students should start getting used to the increased workload by reading books during high school and the months before college. What you read is not as important as how much, but it helps to select recommendations for your intended college major or areas of academic and personal interest. 2. GROW YOUR TECHNICAL SKILL SET Continue reading : https://schoolvibesng.com/ways-prepare-first-year-university-college/ |
Formal learning can teach you a great deal, but many of the essential skills in life are the ones you have to develop on your own. – ~ Lee Iacocca think teacher’s have probably the best job in the world. The importance of an education is irrefutable. Many items on the list below are touched upon, some covered in more depth than others in our schooling, but I think the key factor is where the emphasis is placed. What I’ve come to learn is there’s specific angles towards and pieces of these subjects that should be looked at and studied more closely in an effort to give students a real edge before being handed a diploma and heading down life’s path. Many of the same items I’m going to share have been mentioned in various articles all over the internet. But I wanted to share my top 12. The 12 life skills I strongly feel are most important some of which schools touch on but don’t emphasize nor go into enough detail about. Too much graphing parabolas, memorizing the quadratic formula, and learning to diagram sentences and not enough real world material to use and apply. With that being said, here are the top 12 life skills I wish I learned more about in school: MANAGING MONEY Schools like to teach finance, accounting, etc but they fail to emphasize the importance of saving, how to keep your own budget, how to manage your own money, and how our tax system works. Required in depth courses on building my own personal budget, negotiating contracts, reading financial statements, creating a budget geared towards longterm saving, investing in companies and buying stocks would have been extremely beneficial. Above all else, we underestimate the importance of learning what the value of a dollar really means. While all of these are absolutely touched on in finance and business courses, the importance of maintaining a self-budget and managing you personal money should be required courses for all and heavily emphasized as required comprehension for life’s journey. DATING & ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS “Romance has gone the way of cursive handwriting.” ~ Rachel Greenwald, Author and Dating Coach Nothing is more saddening than people who continue to get straight A’s in school, pile on the electives, build great resumes, Eyeteeth have forgotten or never realized the meaning of love. Many people lose out on love simply because they don’t realize that indeed there is much to learn about falling into, maintaining, and flourishing in dating and romantic relationships. There is a lack of knowledge today on attachment theories, what romance means to people, the rules of dating (are there rules?), and the meaning of love. If this was focused on more in schools I strongly feel we’d be more prepared for “the one” when he or she comes along. MARRAIGE, FAMILY & RAISING KIDS Marriage, family, and kids are hard work. There are many many wonderful things about family, but it has a lot of ups and downs. Maintaining a marriage over the course of several decades (or more) can be very hard work. Only an intense understanding of love, connection, and the depths of it’s meaning can bond two people for a relationship’s longterm course. Raising a family is no easier. Ask anyone raising a newborn, toddler, or teen and most will tell you there was so much to learn that they didn’t know prior. There’s much to be learned in the real world about marriage, family, and children we didn’t know anything about upon leaving school. Professional Etiquette / Manners There’s so many people in the work place who are frankly clueless about how to write good emails. They also are horrible at handling themselves in a formal or professional setting and are bad communicators. Communication is critical in so many corners of life. Courses in our schools implementing professional work etiquette would be extremely beneficial. It can be as simple as writing a thank you card after a job interview to using proper notation in a professional correspondence. My grandmother Gloria “Go-Go” Pilkington was a stickler for hats indoors. If you came in with a hat on she’d stare you down and by all means you better take that hat off. If you wore a hat to the dinner table? Forget it. I can only imagine her in today’s iphone age. If she saw an iphone at the table I think it would be the end of all things. Point is, Go-Go was right. We’ve lost our connection to manners and common etiquette. I think above all else they teach us to respect each others and ourselves. If we show our appreciation for each other in formal and informal settings it brings positive qualities out of us all. Positive reinforcement and support is an essential human need. Professional etiquette and Manners are the subtext of this. Particularly in the last few decades we have lost some of our connection to common etiquette. Schools should start making more of an effort to emphasize manners so that our future generations revitalize them. Go-Go was right. COPING WITH FAILURE “I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” ~ Michael Jordan There’s a misconception that failure means you’ve lost the game in life. This couldn’t be further from the truth. People graduate school thinking they can conquer the world. They have their first set of failures and they hit a wall. When people realize that failure is actually part of success, they have breakthroughs. My high school theater teacher Wayne Salomon use to tell our class “Fail. Fail better.” At the time I didn’t know what it meant. But it grew on me. There’s an interview with Will Smith I saw recently where he talks about how “fear kills creativity.” I agree whole heartedly. You have to be fearless and not afraid to take risks. Remember that Jerry Maguire quote at the Kinkos at 3 am? “That’s how you become great man. Hang your balls out there.” There’s tremendous truth to this. And not enough strategies, skills, and programs are implemented in our schools to teach our youth about failure being a given, how to react when it comes, and how to build on our failures. HOW TO APPLY FOR JOBS Many people don’t have any idea about how to find jobs. They don’t know where to job hunt, how to write a good resume, what temp agencies are, what employers look for, the structure of companies, how to give themselves an edge, and how to find who does the hiring. Once the process starts they don’t know how to interview. There’s certain strategies and tips people can use throughout the interview process. I personally find LinkedIn to be a wonderful resource for job hunting. Believe it or not, it is still underused by many. The before, during, and after of the job application process should be incorporated more into our school’s curriculums. Finding quality jobs is a life skill that is required to reach our goals and achieve our maximum potential. source : https://schoolvibesng.com/important-life-skills-learn-school/ |
