最后11年的考试即将来临，对于任何学生来说，这都是非常紧张的。It becomes quite a stressful time of year if you, admittedly, have been procrastinating more than you should have throughout Year 11 and your results may reflect that!
Fear less! We have you covered with 5 simple steps that you can take to turn your results around just in time for Year 11 exams.
Let’s see what it takes!
步骤＃1：创建一个赶上列表
Step #2: Prioritise Your Tasks Using the Traffic Light System
Step #3: Schedule in Your Catch Up Zones
Step #4: Get an Accountability Buddy!
Step #5: Study Under Timed Conditions
步骤＃1：创建一个赶上列表
Start by writing down every single thing you need to catch up on, spare no detail!Get these tasks down on paper so that you can see what needs to be done and what you are behind on.
考虑一下您对每个主题的目标或目标— what is it you want to achieve?
也许您想在数学上应用某些方程式，或为每个英语模块开发一个强有力的论文。Whatever it is you are aiming for, make sure that these tasks can help drive you towards fulfilling those goals.
This is the first step to planning your comeback and getting on top of your work!
Step #2: Prioritise Your Tasks Using the Traffic Light System
现在你have your catch up list in front of you，知道感到不知所措是正常的。However, do not let this discourage you, because this is where prioritisation comes into play!
If you are not familiar with the交通灯系统，这是学习如何实施它的好时机！
Essentially you want tocategorise everything on your catch up list into one of three colours; red, yellow or green. This allows you to prioritise your tasks:
- UseREDfor tasks you don’t feel confident in
- Use黄色的对于您了解的领域，但仍然有一些方面没有意义
- Use绿色对于您完全有信心的事情
Choosing which coloured tasks to focus on depends on how much time you have left yourself to catch up.If you have a good month or two before exams, you can focus on the red tasks to ensure that you are not losing significant amounts of marks in areas where you lack confidence. You can also revise the yellow areas and turn them into greens!
另一方面，如果您在考试前只有几周，那么您就不想在红色区域上花费宝贵的时间来理解。取而代之的是，您想修改绿色区域以最大程度地提高标记，并专注于黄色任务。然后，如果您仍然有时间，则可以完成红色任务。
Remember that寻求帮助永远不会太晚！Reach out to peers, teachers or get in touch with thetutors at Art of Smart.
Set your priorities straight and use the traffic light system!
Step #3: Schedule in Your Catch Up Zones
现在您有一个有组织，分类和优先列表，您需要实际完成任务。
The best way to get onto these tasks is to让自己赶上区域。这些都是您封锁了一天或一周的时间来完成任务列表。
赶上区域对每个人来说都会有所不同！您可能想在必须离开学校之前或晚餐后一个小时才能在您的赶上名单上工作一个小时。另外，您可能更喜欢留出更大的时间来处理它。例如，周日可以是您的赶时间，您可以在列表中工作并在旅途中勾选物品。
It is so important that you schedule in catch up zones, otherwise you can stay on top of your school work, but that doesn’t mean you will guarantee time to work on the things you skipped earlier in the year.
Step #4: Get an Accountability Buddy!
电话一个朋友,与一个同伴找人让您负责！
It can be really hard to stay motivated, especially when you know that there is a large list of tasks to work through.So having someone beside you to work through this journey is a great way to stay motivated!
An accountability buddy could besomeone that is in a similar position to you and is also looking to catch up, or it could be a friend that does the same subjects as you.
Share your catch up list with your accountability buddy and让彼此知道您想在当天或一周中删除清单。You might find it motivating to study together or independently at home and share a photo once you have checked a task off.
Step #5: Study Under Timed Conditions
No matter how well you know your course content,您的考试表现取决于您如何应对时间压力和考试日压力. This is why it is crucial that you study with timed conditions to get yourself comfortable working against the clock.

由于11年级考试的过去论文没有那么多，因此建议通过定时条件下从学校获得的任何实践材料进行工作。
Even if you are not doing practice papers or questions,为自己设置一个合理的时间限制，为某个主题编写笔记，或为作业完成数学练习。Get used to the time crunch and thinking on the spot!
It is never too late to turn your Year 11 results around, and you can start simply by writing down that catch up list.Also remember to ask for help — seek advice and guidance so that you can jump onto the catch up train!
