I’ve learned advanced things much faster than a teacher could have taught me!
“I am really enjoying Skolatis! It is very helpful. I feel that the way you teach the subjects are very helpful and aid in helping people learn more complicated things. For example I’m a lot ahead in chemistry and biology. I’ve learned many more advanced things much faster than a teacher could have taught me it. Skolatis has really helped me improve in chemistry and biology!”

After finishing studying a topic (for eg: Reproduction in Biology) for the day, when should I start to revise it…
like after 4 weeks or for how long ??
Hello Aynesh,
You can do a topical revision after completing a topic and when you finish covering all the topics in the syllabus, you start practicing with past exam papers.
Practicing lots of past papers is the key to success. It will help you familiarise with the type of questions and it will be best if you work on it as if you are in an exam hall. Set the timer by following the fixed number of hours on the exam papers.
Pay attention to the most common mistakes you always seem to make. Make notes and revise them, so you can avoid making the same mistakes in your actual exam.
We hope this helps.
I hope so too!!

what subject should I take to get into a psychology college? I’m currently in grade 10 first semester studying math, English, accounting, business, travel&tourism, and art. Can these subject get me accepted to a psychology college? because I regret taking business but doesn’t want to change subject since it was too late.
Hello Lia,
There is quite a wide range for required subjects in psychology. You may consider: English, Maths, Psychology, Sociology, any of the science subjects (Biology, Chemistry, Physics). But we strongly suggest that you get final confirmation with the university as which subjects are needed.
My school doesn’t have any sociology or psychology subjects. Do you have any suggestion of what psychology major should I choose considering it’s too late to change my subjects to science? Do you think I can still take forensic or counseling psychology?
Hello Lia,
There have been many different subjects required for all different courses in different universities. As such, we strongly suggest that you confirm your subjects with the university in accordance to what you want to pursue for further studies.
Please help! I am in South Africa and teaching a South African girl in Year 9, Maths extra lessons. She doing the Cambridge syllabus and is registered with a UK online school. I need to know if year 9 all write external exams at the end of the academic year? I have found 5 specimen papers, labelled 9-1 core, for UK students, am I in the right place? Are these papers of different degrees of difficulty? I must admit that am a bit overwhelmed by the number of papers on the website!! Please point me in the right direction! Thanks
Hello Mary,
With regards to external exams, this will depend on the school’s policies. Some schools allow spreading out the IGCSE examinations in different examination series, while some does not.
To assist you better we would like to know the subject name and code of the specimen paper you are looking at.
Thank you.

hello igcse i need tips on geography paper 4
Hello there,
Here are some tips for Geography (0460):
– Read the information given in the stem of the question carefully as well as the questions themselves
-When you are asked to use a written resource you will not be given marks for copying out sections from it. Look at the question you are being asked and try to show your understanding by answering in your own words.
-Try to be as precise as possible as vague statements are unlikely to get you many marks. e.g. ‘A Stevenson Screen is used to get accurate readings’ is far too vague. You need to give details explaining why readings are accurate when a Stevenson Screen is used (the louvres allow a free flow of air, the white surface reflects the sun’s rays, it allows you to take temperatures in the shade etc).
-Make sure you know the differences between global environmental problems which you may have studied. Many people mix up global warming, ozone depletion and acid rain. You must also make sure you do not mix up causes and effects/consequences – you may be asked for one or the other so read the question carefully.
Lastly, practice, practice and practice. Answering past papers help and you can learn from the mark scheme. Download the past papers here: https://www.skolatis.com/cambridge-igcse-past-exam-papers/
We hope this helps.
