- Day 1: One section + error log (why wrong?)
- Day 2: Spelling + plural rules practice
- Day 3: Map/diagram questions
- Day 4: MCQ technique (predict before listening)
- Day 5: Note completion + numbers/dates
- Day 6: Full test (timed)
- Day 7: Review + vocabulary from mistakes
Top mistakes

Tip: Always write answers as you listen. Don’t depend on memory.
