HOW I GOT 7 DISTINCTIONS IN MATRIC(Study Tips) 

I got about 45% in most subjects during my metric years. I thought I’d reached a dead end. Fast forward, 6 years later, I ended up in the US where I applied for Cardiac Sonography. I got 94% in anatomy and physiology, 90 in ultrasound physics, 91% vascular ultrasound, 89% cardiac ultrasound. Truth is metric results should not stop you from pursing your dream career.

Actual video starts at 6:08 1) Study time table -be disciplined and set realistic study goals 2) Multiple study resources -find a good study guide and use Multiple textbooks -use online resources like RU-vid -On TV >Mindset learn Xtra -use past papers 3) Study smart not hard -study smart = minimum effort, maximum results 4) Pre-read -basically means reading your work before class -always try to be ahead 5) Know your best study times -When do you work mostly well 6) Consistency -study months or weeks before the exam 7) Balance your subjects / find a balance --more time on the subjects you are less good at and virsa versa -concentrate when doing your homework treat it like an exam. 9) Set goals for your self -write down what percentage you would like to to attain so that you can motivate yourself Always aim for 💯 10) Do corrections -See where you went wrong so that you don't make the same mistakes 11) Be willing to learn and ask 12) Eliminate distractions -take off the social media -take of the bad influences -take off the bad friends BE PATIENT IT WILL TAKE TIME JUST BELIEVE AND PUT IN THE TIME AND WORK you are welcome ☺️ -

You can refer to me as "Andiswa" I'm not a Dr yet guys. I'm glad you found this video helpful. Please don't forget to share with your classmates. Thank you.

Yk this gives me a little hope bc I'm in grade 11 and I'm still on the 70s with physics and I used to be in the 60s last year in grade 10.... Maybe i will get those distinctions as time goes on😭😭

I heard you talking about grade 8 and 9.] I am in grade 9 (I'm a boy) and I have been obtaining level 7s in NATURAL sciences since term 1 until term 3 but my math was level 3 in term 1 , my results from term 1 weren't good ( learners average was 66.33%) but I decided to study more in holidays and everyday ... learners average increased to (68.33%) I wasn't very happy and I got position 5 in my grade so I decided to study even more so I got 5 distinctions in term 3 (including NS) and the other 4 subjects were all level 6's. I'm happy enough now because learners average increased more to (79.67%) and now I'm position 1 in my grade . I'll continue coming back here for more study tips to develop study motivations and disciplines. Love youuuu🥺

I got 48% for physics and 36%for maths last year in my finals grade 11 and term 1 this year I got distinctions, all I can say is just believe in yourself, yes it won't be easy but visualize yourself getting those distinctions and work towards them I'm planning on studying quantum physics at wits next year Don't ever think it's over

I’m 27 you just gave me hope to go back from school and fix myself. Other than chasing money that’s not chasing me💔. Thank you Doctor.

Good luck my g12's let's murder the trials and finals 24hrs a day is enough if we use our time wisely and it's limited at the moment, thanks Dr Andy

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed "A WAKE UP CALL" . I am currently doing grade 11 and most of the things you've mentioned here are totally relatable. I definitely will take your advice seriously.❤

Hey I relate so much with your story lol but I learned the hard way to take my studies serious.. In grade 8 and 9 I was always number 1 in the top 10, then came grade 10 I went from number 1 to number 5 that discouraged me and my marks started to decline from then, in matric I was having this baddy attidute lol I dunt even know where it came about but I was partying and not coming to school on Monday so that really affected me but nonetheless I passed by matric with B and all subjects above 60% and even a distinction except Maths(I got 48%) that affected me from getting in the university that I wanted, so I had to go to college instead of university(realized that my diploma from college doesn't get me the job I want) then later on I rewrote my matric and got into university, took my studies serious and finally I'm a qualified engineer.

I'm a parent and I'm inspired by your tips..going to show my Grade 8 and Grade 9 son and daughter that there is nothing impossible if you want it to be possible.. May God bless you more..

I'm currently doing grade 11 and I take Economics, Maths Lit, Business and Accounting. I want to go to UCT and I recently found out that I need Pure Maths to make to the Commerce Faculty. I've been weighing the options I have and I've decided to repeat grade 11 so I can do the Maths that's required. I was also given the option to do Pure Maths in grade 12 next year by my HOD but I'm not sure how well I'll do since the last time I did Pure Maths was in grade 9. It was not an easy decision, repeating a whole grade but I decided to look with a different viewpoint. Repeating grade 11 will give me a chance to improve on the subjects I need improvement on (Accounting and Economics). I do however have been slacking because I had this "I'll do this again next year anyways" but your video has changed my mentality. I'm also aiming for 7 distinctions. It's hard but not impossible. I fell in love with the university of Capella Town and I don't imagine myself studying somewhere else that's why I want to work hard. Thank you

I'm currently in grade 10 and i find it very difficult to work with my time table but I'm now motivated to take it easy and work harder . Thank you ☺🙂

I just came across this video today. And yes! You’ve just got a new subscriber here! I’m in Grade 10, and I’ve been doing well so far. I’ve been getting 80s and 70s. But it’s not easy maintaining those marks every term, and every grade. It’s takes me a lot of hardwork such as late night studies. But I’ll try and use these tips. Thanks for this video❤

I`m currently in grade 12 ,first term I got 47% for mathematics, 2nd term 60% . I am fighting for distinction on trials and finals🥰
