Common Mistakes in IGCSE Science & Maths Exams
- Wrong unit conversion: Always convert all units to SI before using formulas (e.g., cm → m, g → kg).
- Forgetting to square/cube units: For area (m²), volume (m³), check your conversion powers.
- Sign errors: In velocity/acceleration, check positive/negative directions!
- Omitting constants: Like ‘g = 9.8 m/s²’ in Physics, ‘R’ in Chemistry gas law questions.
- Mistaking significant figures: Give answers to the correct number of significant figures as per question!
- Not labelling diagrams/calculations: Write units in every answer; draw neat diagrams where needed.
- Algebraic rearrangement errors: Check your transposition and factorisation in maths/algebra questions.
- Calculator errors: Double-check your brackets, order of operations (BODMAS), and exponent entries.
Revision & Scoring Tips
- Memorise key formulas, units and constants before each mock/test
- Practice application: solve sample questions using only the formula list
- Highlight frequently-used laws and equations for your exam board
- Use “cheat-sheet” revision daily to save time
- Refer to topicwise PDF links above for full, printable sheets
