Question 3
Read the speech on how to perform well in an examination.

Good morning students of SMK Seri Bunian. Examination is important and as

such, you have to be well-prepared to perform your best. As the examination period
is approaching, some of you may have butterflies in your stomach. But, do not
worry. Today, I would like to share some tips on how you can perform well in your
examination.
Firstly, it is a bad habit to stay up late to catch up on your television. Another
one is to revise at the eleventh hour. These bad habits should not be encouraged.
Always revise consistently, especially after the lesson is taught.
Dont be afraid to ask questions in class. Talk to your teachers as they can
provide you the necessary guidance. Besides, you can form a study group. Group
study enables you and your friends to share ideas and opinions. This can be a
valuable source of information, especially in the area you are weak in.
During examination, listen to the instructions attentively given by the
invigilator. He will tell you the time allocated to answer the questions and will ask
you to check the printed pages of the paper.
Use time wisely in examination. If you are unable to answer a difficult
question, do not waste your time on it. You can come back to it later. Move on to do
the easier ones first. Once you have finished, do not leave the hall. Read what you
have answered and check your work. They may be some errors which can be
corrected.
Dont forget to bring along your identity card with you on the day of the
examination. You will need it to enter the examination hall. Finally, always arrive
early, at least half an hour before the paper starts. Never arrive just in time or late
for the examination.
These are some of the tips you can follow to prepare yourselves for an
examination. Remember, our performance in an examination depends on our efforts
to prepare for it. Good luck and thank you.
