Whether from Soweto or Sandton, Cape Town or Cape St Francis, from Kokstad or Kroonstad, grade 12 learners from every corner of the country will soon be sitting down to write their matric exams.
If you're one of them, Arena Holdings — the management and staff at the Sowetan newspaper, the Sunday Times, The Daily Dispatch and The Herald — would like to contribute to your success by helping you prepare for your final exams.
That's why Arena has published a series of six Matric Q&A study guides on these publications' websites.
Each of these study guides — see below — contains examples of previous examination question papers and memos for various subjects.
They'll help you become familiar with the type of questions that could be asked in your final exam, how best to answer those questions, and how much time it'll take you to do so, so you can finish your exam in the given time. Remember: practice makes perfect.
And while writing matric can be a very stressful experience, as Arena group commercial & strategy MD Lyndon Barends says, it’s also a time to celebrate the successes you’ve achieved throughout your schooling career.
He urges you to reflect on those memories and use them as a source of motivation to make one final effort to achieve the best matric results that you possibly can: “Think of what you want to achieve in life. Dare to dream and dream big. You owe it to yourself.”
