A dated error log plus a handwritten sheet of memorised poems and formulas, reviewed at week's end

Week 2

Write two full essay outlines (insha') on literary themes using a fixed introduction-body-conclusion template
Analyse three unseen literary extracts for imagery, tone, and authorial purpose in 20 minutes each
Complete a full past-paper mathematics section on functions and limits, self-marking against the official marking scheme
Summarise each mathematics chapter's key results onto a single A4 revision card

Two marked essay outlines and one completed timed mathematics section with a self-assessed score

Week 3

Build a French vocabulary and connectives list of 60 items drawn from your own past-paper reading passages
Write one 250-word French commentary (commentaire composé) on a short literary extract, using a clear plan

Memorise and apply the core physics formulas (kinematics, Newton's laws, electrical circuits) to 20 numerical problems
Balance 15 chemical equations and calculate moles, concentrations, and yields accurately
Write a one-page formula sheet for physics and chemistry that you can reproduce from memory

A scored mathematics past paper at or above your target grade, plus a completed physics-chemistry problem set

Week 5

Memorise the key Qur'anic verses and hadith prescribed for the Islamic sciences paper, with their contexts
Outline the main rulings (ahkam) on worship topics and cite the evidence for each
Build a timeline of the major periods of Mauritanian and West African history with key dates and figures
Practise two geography map-and-data questions, interpreting climate and population data accurately

A dated history timeline and a memorised-verses checklist, both tested by self-quizzing

Week 6

Complete a full physics-chemistry past paper under timed conditions and self-mark it
Draw and label the key biological diagrams (cell, human reproductive and digestive systems) from memory
Explain the geological processes in the syllabus (rock cycle, erosion, plate tectonics) in your own written words
Answer 20 short natural-science questions using precise terminology

A scored physics-chemistry past paper and a labelled diagram set reproduced without notes

Week 7

Write two philosophy essays using a thesis-antithesis-synthesis structure on prescribed themes
Complete one English reading and one writing task under exam timing, checking grammar and spelling
Summarise the physical education theory syllabus (training principles, nutrition, first aid) onto two revision cards

Two philosophy essays and one timed English paper, each self-marked against the official criteria

Week 8

Sit two full mock exams under real timing, covering the heaviest domains first
Review every logged error from weeks 1-7 and re-solve each one correctly
Recite your memorised Arabic poems and re-derive your formula sheets from memory
Finalise a one-page exam-day checklist covering timing, materials, and question order

Two completed mock exams with scores compared against week 4 and a final error-review sheet

Week 2: You can recite two Arabic poems from memory and solve basic algebra problems without notes

Week 4: Your timed mathematics past paper scores at or above your target grade

Week 6: You have completed at least one full past paper in each of the three heaviest domains

Week 8: Your mock exam scores show measurable improvement over week 4, and every logged error has been re-solved
