      Unfortunately you have to keep working hard to improve your grades in Sciences and Maths. To pursue Medicine you’ll need a good grade in this.

      Read more, ask questions more, revise more with friends and eventually you’ll have some good grades if you put in the effort consistently. There is no shortcut to good grades and going to pursue Medicine.

      Mathematics and Sciences can be challenging, but they are definitely doable. Here’s what worked for me and it might work for you too:

      Have a positive attitude towards Maths and Sciences. Believe that you can improve with time and effort.

      Practice regularly. After each lesson, go over what the teacher taught that same day. Practicing immediately helps you remember and understand better.

      Use past papers. They help you understand how Maths and Science exams are set and prepare you for real exam conditions. Try solving them and check how you perform.

      Ask for help. Talk to your Maths and Science teachers often, and also reach out to classmates who are good at Maths and Sciences. I found that sometimes learning from friends made things easier to understand than learning from teachers alone.
