✏️ Answering Tips

• Examiners see the first thing written.
  → Cross out anything wrong clearly; no need to erase.
• In Math, if you skip a question (e.g., from Q6 → Q7 → back to Q6),
  start the returned question (Q6) on a new page to maintain clear order.

🧠 Mindset

• Breathe, focus, and trust your preparation.
• You’ve already done the hard part — this is just the final chapter.
• Stay calm, move one question at a time, and don’t rush.
• You’ve got this.
