Physics Paper 2 tips:

Usually in paper 2, especially in essay section B/C, the question will provide u with a table of comparison. For eample, if the question ask u to choose a material from a table to build an electric kettle..then u r asked to choose the most suitable characteristic.

for example,

My suggestion is.. rather than writing a common lengthy essay type of answer.. its easier if u answer it by making a table of comparison like this: 

Then u choose which one is the most suitable & repeat its suitable characteristic;

e.g:

kettle W is most suitable coz it has high boiling point & high resistivity.

If u answer in table form, u r more focused & will go straight to the point.

Otherwise if u choose to write like typical english essay.. there's a tendency that u might 'goreng merapu-rapu'. In the end lots of non relevant facts will b included.

I know your mid term is just aroun the corner right... so here i include some revision list of form 4 summarized terms.
