    People who got >90 in subjects: how did you study?

    What i found worked really well was studying with someone who gets about the same marks as you. By explaining how something works to someone, you explain it to yourself and makes it much clearer. And like everyone else said, follow the syllabus. Go through the points one at a time and answer...
