NCEA Exams and Study

Marlborough Girls' College —

We are heading into the end of year for senior students....

With school practice exams held recently, teachers have been marking papers and giving results and feedback to students.

It is timely for students to be talking with their Whānau Teacher about resetting their learning goals and making their own study plan. 

There is good science behind two effective approaches to study - Pomodoro approach and MARGE. 

The Pomodoro approach - click here for more information

MARGE

MARGE refers to the following steps - download the pdf below for more information on Professor Arthur Shimamura's work.

  • Motivate
  • Attend
  • Relate
  • Generate
  • Evaluate

The final 2023 end of year NCEA exam timetable is attached below - it would be a great job if everyone put the relevant exams into their own plans and diaries now.

As always, if you need help or support to get ready for exams, then please talk with your course teacher, your Whānau Teacher and/or Dean and make a plan B!
