Keep Yourself Away from Distracting Things

Concentrate on Common Topics

Study the SOF Level 2 related topics taught by the teacher at school with more concentration and try to correlate them. That way, solving problems in school becomes easier. In case the topic being taught at the school and your SOF Level 2 preparation are the same, try to finish it first. Build basics of that topic, which will help you in your school exams, while solving the higher-order thinking questions for SOF Level 2 exams.
