Learn definitions before long answers

Junior Cert Science marks depend on precise terms — osmosis, photosynthesis, and energy transfers need exact wording.

Practise diagram labels weekly

Cell structure, circuits, and apparatus diagrams appear often. Draw from memory, then check against textbook labels.

Use CBA coursework to preview exam skills

Classroom-Based Assessments teach investigation skills that reappear in written exam questions — treat them as practice, not optional extras.
