Preparing for EAE: Three Essential Points

-

Hey there!  It's been many months since my last blog post, but there's a good reason. I've been wrapped up in Mid-Year studies and most importantly (the subject of this post) - EAE Preparation. Now, even though some of us may have done well for Mid-Years, that's no reason to get overconfident and decide that EAE is no longer necessary.  On the contrary, a successful performance in Mid-Years (Which I unfortunately did not manage to secure) should motivate you further to participate in EAE, as now you're secure in your academics and can focus on developing your portfolio for EAE to net a place in a Polytechnic of your choice early.

THE O-LEVEL EXPERIENCE SO FAR This is the first post on my blog - set up in the name of documenting my  personal O-Level Experience and whatever happens during this year - a path well-traveled by many thousands of 16 year-olds before me to help those with me and after me chart O-Levels. The date today is 27th March 2021 - around 2 months before my first O-Level paper - Mother Tongue - and 7 months before the rest of the papers, and the pressure is quickly mounting on not just me but majority of my friends and peers.  For a lot of us who are aware of the gravity of the situation, O-Levels will be one of the most pivotal exams that we will go through in our lives, as it almost single-handedly decides the course of our tertiary education - whether we go to Polytechnic, Junior College, ITE and beyond.
