Morale booster for my students during their Common Test 2


To all my students who are still in the midst of your Common Test 2: don't be like Dory, memorizing P.Sherman 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney for the sake of it. Know exactly what you're studying and understand how to apply the concepts you've learnt first. This way, things will make sense a lot more. All the best to your last few papers!

P.S: Dory's rote memorization did eventually save Nemo, but it needed the undying spirit of Marlin who never gave up on his quest to find his son back. In other words, memorization does help, but you need to justify why you're doing it. Learn because it helps you build your character and your soft skills. Not because you want to get better results. School is never just about the hard skills.
