Skipping this diagnostic step is one of the most common mistakes we see at <a href=\"https:\/\/times.edu.vn\/\">Times Edu<\/a>, and it results in students spending 20 hours on topics they already understand while ignoring the areas that will cost them grade boundaries.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 1: Sit a past paper under timed conditions.<\/strong> Use a paper from the last two or three years and give yourself the full two hours. Do not check any formulas or notes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2: Mark it strictly using the official Cambridge mark scheme.<\/strong> Note which marks were M (method), A (accuracy), or B (unconditional accuracy) marks. This distinction matters because losing M marks consistently signals a conceptual gap, while losing A marks often points to careless arithmetic.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3: Categorise every question you could not complete or got wrong into one of three buckets:<\/strong><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">Category<\/th>\n<th colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">What it means<\/th>\n<th colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">Your action<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">Conceptual gap<\/td>\n<td colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">You did not know the method at all<\/td>\n<td colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">Schedule 2 full study days on this topic<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">Method error<\/td>\n<td colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">You knew the approach but applied it wrongly<\/td>\n<td colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">Do 10 targeted past-paper questions on it<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">Careless mistake<\/td>\n<td colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">You understood but made arithmetic or notation errors<\/td>\n<td colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\">Add it to your daily error log<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>This diagnostic gives you your personal topic priority 0606 list, which drives the entire four-week plan.<\/p>\n\n\t<button class='btn-dang-ky' onclick=\"openPopup('popup1')\">\n\t\t<span class='text-effect-1'>\n\t\t\t<svg\n\t\t\t\txmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'\n\t\t\t\tviewBox='0 0 64 64'\n\t\t\t\twidth='24'\n\t\t\t\theight='24'\n\t\t\t\taria-label='Calendar icon'\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<rect width='64' height='64' rx='6' fill='#caa15a'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<rect x='10' y='14' width='44' height='40' rx='4'\n\t\t\t\t\tfill='none' stroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<line x1='10' y1='24' x2='54' y2='24'\n\t\t\t\t\tstroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<line x1='22' y1='6' x2='22' y2='18'\n\t\t\t\t\tstroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4' stroke-linecap='round'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<line x1='42' y1='6' x2='42' y2='18'\n\t\t\t\t\tstroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4' stroke-linecap='round'\/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t\tBook a Trial Class\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/button>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #f00;\">&gt;&gt;&gt; Read more:<\/strong> <a class=\"xem-them-link\" href=\"https:\/\/times.edu.vn\/en\/igcse\/igcse-additional-mathematics-specimen-vs-past-paper\/\">IGCSE Additional Mathematics specimen vs past paper<\/a> 2026: The complete strategic guide for 0606 students<\/p>\n<h2>Week one: Algebra, functions and coordinate geometry in IGCSE Additional Mathematics<\/h2>\n<p>The first week of any serious <a href=\"https:\/\/times.edu.vn\/en\/igcse\/igcse-additional-mathematics\/\">IGCSE Additional Maths<\/a> study plan must be dedicated to foundational algebra. This is not because algebra is the easiest topic; it is because algebraic fluency underpins almost every other area of the syllabus, from calculus to trigonometry to binomial expansions.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 1 and 2: Functions and quadratics<\/h3>\n<p>Begin with functions because they appear as multi-part sub-questions in virtually every Cambridge 0606 paper. Your targets for these two days:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Practice identifying domain and range for mappings that involve square roots, fractions, and modulus functions.<\/li>\n<li>Drill composite functions gf(x) and inverse functions f\u207b\u00b9(x), paying close attention to the order of operations.<\/li>\n<li>Master completing the square, which is the single most versatile algebraic skill on the paper. It lets you find vertex coordinates, determine the nature of a quadratic, and solve equations that cannot be factorised.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>One critical detail often overlooked is that many students find gf(x) by applying g first and then f, reversing the correct order. The notation gf(x) means &#8220;apply f first, then apply g to the result.&#8221; Confusing this order costs easy method marks.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 3 and 4: Polynomials and simultaneous equations<\/h3>\n<p>The Factor Theorem and Remainder Theorem appear almost every year in some form. A common mistake we see is students attempting to divide a cubic polynomial by a linear factor using long division when substitution is faster and less error-prone.<\/p>\n<p>For simultaneous equations involving a curve and a line, always use substitution. Elimination methods will not work cleanly when one equation is quadratic, and attempting it wastes exam time and produces errors in the coefficient manipulation.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 5 and 6: Logarithms, indices and surds<\/h3>\n<p>Review every log law systematically: The power rule, the product rule, the quotient rule, and the change-of-base formula. These laws appear both as standalone questions and inside coordinate geometry and linear law questions later in the paper.<\/p>\n<p>Practice rationalising denominators involving surds. The technique is mechanical once mastered, but students who have not practised it recently under timed conditions tend to make sign errors in the expansion of the conjugate pair.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 7: Weekly review and error logging<\/h3>\n<p>Do not attempt new material today. Return to every problem you got wrong during days 1 to 6, rework it from scratch without looking at your earlier working, and identify the exact line where the error occurred. Update your error log with a short note explaining why you made each mistake, not just what the correct answer was.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #f00;\">&gt;&gt;&gt; Read more:<\/strong> <a class=\"xem-them-link\" href=\"https:\/\/times.edu.vn\/en\/igcse\/igcse-additional-mathematics-self-marking-past-papers\/\">IGCSE Additional Mathematics self-marking past papers<\/a> 2026: The most effective revision method<\/p>\n<h2>Week two: Trigonometry and logarithms in IGCSE Additional Mathematics<\/h2>\n<p>Drawing on years of experience at Times Edu advising students on the Cambridge 0606 revision schedule, we consistently find that Week 2 is the most decisive week in the entire 30-day plan. Trigonometry and calculus together account for approximately 30 to 40 percent of the total marks available on any given paper.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 8 and 9: Trigonometric identities and equations<\/h3>\n<p>Begin with the fundamental identities: Sin\u00b2\u03b8 + cos\u00b2\u03b8 = 1, tan\u03b8 = sin\u03b8\/cos\u03b8, and the derived identities 1 + tan\u00b2\u03b8 = sec\u00b2\u03b8 and 1 + cot\u00b2\u03b8 = cosec\u00b2\u03b8. These identities are not presented as a formula sheet in the Cambridge 0606 exam, so you must memorise them.<\/p>\n<p>When solving trigonometric equations within a given domain, the ASTC (All, Sine, Tangent, Cosine) quadrant rule must become automatic. A recurring error seen in student scripts is finding one solution and stopping, which costs all the A marks even when the method mark has been earned.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 10 and 11: Circular measure<\/h3>\n<p>Switch your calculator to Radians Mode at the start of every circular measure question and do not switch back until you have finished it. The formulas s = r\u03b8 and A = \u00bdr\u00b2\u03b8 only work when \u03b8 is expressed in radians.<\/p>\n<p>Practice problems that combine arc length, area of a sector, and area of a triangle to find shaded regions. These composite problems are a favourite question type in Cambridge 0606 because they test whether students can apply multiple formulas in a logical sequence.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 12 and 13: Logarithmic functions and graphs<\/h3>\n<p>Revisit logarithmic functions as a graph-sketching topic, not just an algebraic one. Cambridge often asks students to describe transformations of y = ln(x) or y = a\u02e3, which connects back to the functions work completed in Week 1.<\/p>\n<p>Practice solving exponential equations by taking logarithms of both sides, and watch for questions where the unknown appears as an exponent inside a quadratic structure. These require a substitution such as letting u = e\u02e3 before solving.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 14: Mid-plan assessment<\/h3>\n<p>Complete a topical past-paper worksheet that covers trigonometry and logarithms exclusively. Mark it strictly and add all errors to your tracker. This mid-plan checkpoint determines whether you need to allocate extra time in Week 3 or whether you are on track.<\/p>\n\n\t<button class='btn-dang-ky' onclick=\"openPopup('popup1')\">\n\t\t<span class='text-effect-1'>\n\t\t\t<svg\n\t\t\t\txmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'\n\t\t\t\tviewBox='0 0 64 64'\n\t\t\t\twidth='24'\n\t\t\t\theight='24'\n\t\t\t\taria-label='Calendar icon'\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<rect width='64' height='64' rx='6' fill='#caa15a'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<rect x='10' y='14' width='44' height='40' rx='4'\n\t\t\t\t\tfill='none' stroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<line x1='10' y1='24' x2='54' y2='24'\n\t\t\t\t\tstroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<line x1='22' y1='6' x2='22' y2='18'\n\t\t\t\t\tstroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4' stroke-linecap='round'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<line x1='42' y1='6' x2='42' y2='18'\n\t\t\t\t\tstroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4' stroke-linecap='round'\/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t\tBook a Trial Class\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/button>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #f00;\">&gt;&gt;&gt; Read more:<\/strong> <a class=\"xem-them-link\" href=\"https:\/\/times.edu.vn\/en\/igcse\/igcse-additional-mathematics-question-types\/\">IGCSE Additional Mathematics question types<\/a> 2026: A complete guide to every format you will face<\/p>\n<h2>Week three: Calculus differentiation and integration in IGCSE Additional Mathematics<\/h2>\n<p>The calculus algebra revision plan for Week 3 is where many <a href=\"https:\/\/times.edu.vn\/en\/igcse\/what-is-igcse-a-comprehensive-guide-for-students\/\">IGCSE<\/a> Additional Mathematics students experience the sharpest gains in their score, precisely because calculus questions carry high mark allocations and have a predictable structure that rewards systematic practice.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 15 and 16: Differentiation rules<\/h3>\n<p>Drill the Chain Rule, Product Rule, and Quotient Rule until the selection between them is instinctive. A common mistake we see in student scripts is applying the Quotient Rule when the function could have been rewritten more simply using a negative exponent, which would require only the Chain Rule and is far less error-prone.<\/p>\n<p>Practice finding the equation of a tangent and a normal to a curve. Remember that the gradient of the normal is the negative reciprocal of the gradient of the tangent, and that the equation of the line must be written in the exact form requested by the question.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 17 and 18: Integration and applications<\/h3>\n<p>Indefinite integration must always include the constant of integration, +c. Losing this notation costs a mark on virtually every indefinite integration question, and it is entirely avoidable.<\/p>\n<p>For definite integration, practice finding the area between a curve and the x-axis, and the area enclosed between two curves. When a region lies below the x-axis, the integral produces a negative value; students must take the absolute value to state the area correctly.<\/p>\n<p>Stationary points and the second derivative test are a high-yield skill in this section. Use d\u00b2y\/dx\u00b2 to determine whether a stationary point is a maximum or minimum, and always state the conclusion explicitly in your working.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 19 and 20: Permutations, combinations and series<\/h3>\n<p>In our experience working with international students, permutations and combinations questions are the topic where students lose the most marks due to misreading the question rather than a genuine gap in mathematical knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>Before calculating, ask: Does the order of selection matter? If yes, use Permutations (nPr). If no, use Combinations (nCr). Questions involving constraints such as &#8220;these two people must not be adjacent&#8221; or &#8220;at least three women must be selected&#8221; require you to break the problem into cases and add the results.<\/p>\n<p>For series, memorise the Arithmetic Progression and Geometric Progression formulas, including the sum to infinity formula S\u221e = a \/ (1 &#8211; R), which only applies when |r| is less than 1.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 21: Weekly formula blitz<\/h3>\n<p>Write out every formula from memory without consulting your notes. This is not just a review exercise; it is a simulation of exam conditions. Any formula you cannot recall today needs to be on a flashcard that you review on Day 27.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #f00;\">&gt;&gt;&gt; Read more:<\/strong> <a class=\"xem-them-link\" href=\"https:\/\/times.edu.vn\/en\/igcse\/igcse-additional-mathematics-how-to-get-full-marks\/\">IGCSE Additional Mathematics how to get full marks<\/a> 2026: A complete strategy guide<\/p>\n<h2>Week four: Full past papers, mark scheme analysis and eliminating weak spots in Add Maths<\/h2>\n<p>The final week of your IGCSE Additional Mathematics four-week plan is a transition from topical study to full examination simulation. The objective is no longer to learn new content; it is to build the examination stamina, timing discipline, and error-awareness that separate a Band A student from a borderline candidate.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 22: Specimen paper under exact exam conditions<\/h3>\n<p>Sit the most recent Cambridge specimen paper for 0606 with no notes, no formula reference, and a strict two-hour timer. Mark it immediately afterwards using the official mark scheme.<\/p>\n<p>One critical detail often overlooked at this stage is the difference between significant figures and decimal places in final answers. Cambridge 0606 requires most non-angle answers to be given to 3 significant figures unless the question specifies otherwise, and angles to 1 decimal place when working in degrees.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 23 and 24: Timed paper 1 and paper 2 mocks<\/h3>\n<p>Aim for a pace of approximately 1.5 minutes per mark. For a 10-mark question, that means 15 minutes of working time. Students who struggle with timing almost always spend too long on early questions they find difficult, leaving insufficient time for later questions that may be more accessible.<\/p>\n<p>During your Paper 2 mock on Day 24, note whether your accuracy drops in the final 30 minutes. If it does, this is a stamina issue, not a knowledge issue, and it is addressed by ensuring you are not attempting last-minute revision late into the night during Week 4.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 25: Deep error analysis<\/h3>\n<p>Do not sit a new paper today. Go through every mistake made on Days 22 to 24 and categorise each one using the same three-bucket system from your Week 1 diagnostic: Conceptual gap, method error, or careless mistake. This categorisation tells you exactly what to do on Day 26.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 26: Weakest link drill<\/h3>\n<p>Spend the entire study session today on the single topic that cost you the most marks across your three timed papers. This targeted repetition is the highest-return use of your final revision hours.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 27: Light review and logistics check<\/h3>\n<p>Review your error log one final time. Check your calculator batteries. Confirm that you have a spare calculator or a backup plan. Review the difference between significant figures and decimal places one more time.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 28: Complete rest<\/h3>\n<p>No mathematics. No revision. A rested brain retains information more effectively and performs significantly better under the cognitive demands of a two-hour examination than a fatigued one.<\/p>\n\n\t<button class='btn-dang-ky' onclick=\"openPopup('popup1')\">\n\t\t<span class='text-effect-1'>\n\t\t\t<svg\n\t\t\t\txmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'\n\t\t\t\tviewBox='0 0 64 64'\n\t\t\t\twidth='24'\n\t\t\t\theight='24'\n\t\t\t\taria-label='Calendar icon'\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<rect width='64' height='64' rx='6' fill='#caa15a'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<rect x='10' y='14' width='44' height='40' rx='4'\n\t\t\t\t\tfill='none' stroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<line x1='10' y1='24' x2='54' y2='24'\n\t\t\t\t\tstroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<line x1='22' y1='6' x2='22' y2='18'\n\t\t\t\t\tstroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4' stroke-linecap='round'\/>\n\t\t\t\t<line x1='42' y1='6' x2='42' y2='18'\n\t\t\t\t\tstroke='#ffffff' stroke-width='4' stroke-linecap='round'\/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t\tBook a Trial Class\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/button>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #f00;\">&gt;&gt;&gt; Read more:<\/strong> <a class=\"xem-them-link\" href=\"https:\/\/times.edu.vn\/en\/igcse\/igcse-additional-mathematics-answer-structure\/\">IGCSE Additional Mathematics answer structure<\/a> 2026: How to format answers for maximum marks<\/p>\n<h2>Daily revision routine and resources to support your one-month IGCSE Add Maths plan<\/h2>\n<p>Consistency in your week by week Add Maths revision matters as much as the content of each session.

Students who have significant conceptual gaps in calculus or trigonometry may benefit from targeted 1-on-1 support alongside the self-study plan.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How many hours per day should you dedicate to IGCSE Additional Mathematics revision in one month?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Two focused hours per day is the recommended baseline for this plan. Extending beyond three hours per day without structured breaks tends to produce diminishing returns and increases careless errors in timed practice. Quality and deliberate practice beats raw hours.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Which IGCSE Additional Mathematics topics should you prioritise in a one-month plan?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Based on mark allocation analysis across recent Cambridge 0606 papers, the highest-priority topics are: Calculus (differentiation and integration), trigonometry, and functions and algebra. These three areas consistently account for over 55 percent of available marks and should receive the most practice time in any IGCSE Additional Maths revision plan.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How many past papers should you complete in the final week of IGCSE Add Maths revision?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Complete three full timed papers during Days 22 to 24, then stop sitting new papers. The remaining days should be used for error analysis, targeted topic drilling, and rest. Attempting to sit five or six papers in one week without deep error review is a common and costly mistake that produces no meaningful improvement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What resources work best alongside a one-month IGCSE Additional Mathematics revision plan?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Cambridge&#8217;s official past papers and mark schemes are non-negotiable. Supplementary resources such as topic-specific question banks and formula summary sheets are useful in Weeks 1 to 3. In Week 4, only official Cambridge materials should be used to ensure your timing and expectations are calibrated to the actual exam format.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How do you balance calculus and algebra revision in a one-month IGCSE Add Maths schedule?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The plan above dedicates Weeks 1 and 3 to algebra and calculus respectively, but the error log drives ongoing attention to both. A student who struggles with logarithms should allocate additional time during the Day 25 weakest-link drill rather than attempting to expand Week 1. The calculus algebra revision plan is most effective when algebra foundations are solid before integration and differentiation are introduced.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How do you stay motivated throughout a one-month IGCSE Additional Mathematics revision plan?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Set a specific target grade at the outset and track your past-paper scores weekly to measure progress. In our experience working with international students, motivation is sustained most effectively by visible progress, not by abstract commitment. Seeing your weekly paper score improve from 55 percent to 68 percent over two weeks is a far more powerful motivator than any general advice about discipline.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-right kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;right&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;45088&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;\u0110\u00e1nh gi\u00e1 b\u00e0i vi\u1ebft&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;5\\\/5 - (1 vote)&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;IGCSE Additional Mathematics one-month revision plan 2026: A complete week-by-week guide&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;142.5&quot;,&quot;_legend&quot;:&quot;{score}\\\/{best} - ({count} {votes})&quot;,&quot;font_factor&quot;:&quot;1.25&quot;}'>\n            \n<div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"2\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"3\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"4\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"5\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-active\" style=\"width: 142.5px;\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                \n\n<div class=\"kksr-legend\" style=\"font-size: 19.2px;\">\n            5\/5 - (1 vote)    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time is the one resource every IGCSE candidate feels they are running out of, especially in the weeks leading up to the Cambridge 0606 examination.
