Practical guides for the months that matter: building a revision timetable, using past papers properly, learning from mocks, and keeping long assignments on track.
Most revision timetables fail by Friday of week one because they plan an imaginary student: unlimited energy, no school, no sport. The timetable guide builds one for a real Bali school week instead, with spacing between repetitions, rest built in, and past-paper milestones tied to the actual exam series.
Doing ten past papers badly helps less than doing three well. The past-paper guide covers the full cycle: sourcing official papers and mark schemes, marking honestly, practising to time, and turning every error into a specific revision action.
A mock result is a map, not a verdict. The mock-review guide shows students and parents how to sort every lost mark into knowledge, technique or timing, keep a simple error log, and agree next steps with school and tutor before the real series.
A 4,000-word research project is a sequence of small decisions made in the right order. The planning guide breaks the IB extended essay and long school projects into phases a student can actually follow: question, sources, outline, drafts and final checks.
Parents rightly ask where help ends and doing-the-work begins. The integrity guide states the rules by assessment type: homework, coursework, IB internal assessments and the extended essay. The short version is supervise, never write.
Avoidance is information, not defiance. One guide in this section helps parents read what sits behind a teenager shutting down on hard tasks, respond without escalation, and recognise when the pattern needs more than structure at home.
Cambridge International runs two exam series each year, in June and November. June-series exams are held in May and June, with results in August; the November series runs in October and November, with results in mid-January. Mocks usually land a term before the real papers, which makes them the last strong evidence before entries are finalised.
| Exam series | Exams held | Results issued | Revision milestones |
|---|---|---|---|
| June series | May and June | August | Mocks in the preceding term; timed past-paper work from about eight weeks out |
| November series | October and November | Mid-January | Mocks early in the school year; error-log review before the October break |
Six guides and a blank planner to download and fill in.
When self-study needs a coach, our exam preparation service pairs students with tutors who teach to the mark scheme: timed practice, honest marking and a written plan for the weeks that remain.
