How Should You Prepare Step by Step?
Follow this proven 5-step strategy to maximize your PSLE Science score efficiently.
Step 1: Master High-Weightage Topics
Start with Life Cycles, Body Systems, and Interactions — these make up 65% of the paper.
💡 Key Tips:
- •Focus on Diversity of Living Things (highest single-topic weightage)
- •Study Forces and Electrical Systems for practical applications
- •Master Plant Reproduction and Food Webs for open-ended questions
Step 2: Practice Application Questions
Focus on "Explain Why" and "MCQs with traps" — especially in Systems and Energy.
💡 Key Tips:
- •Practice MCQs with real-world scenarios
- •Learn to identify keywords in questions
- •Master diagram labeling and interpretation
Step 3: Use Real Diagrams
Practice labeling and interpreting real-life Science diagrams.
💡 Key Tips:
- •Study flower parts, leaf structures, and body systems
- •Practice water cycle and electrical circuit diagrams
- •Learn to read and interpret food web diagrams
Step 4: Simulate Exam Conditions
Try full 1h 45min timed papers every 2 weeks in the last month.
💡 Key Tips:
- •Practice time management for both sections
- •Learn to skip difficult questions and return later
- •Focus on MCQs first, then tackle open-ended questions
Step 5: Track Mistakes and Revise
Group common mistakes by concept (e.g., diffusion vs osmosis), not just by topic.
💡 Key Tips:
- •Keep a mistake journal for each topic
- •Review wrong answers, not just correct ones
- •Use flashcards for key definitions and processes
