Chap 1: Respiratory System
Focus on labelling of the human respiratory tract from nostrils till aveolous(rujuk nota kelas cikgu),process on inhaling(5 types of things i teach you),diseases causing lungs(Refer to my notes)
-they may ask you about hazards of smoking or campaign done by the authorities to combat smoking habbits in Malaysia-tak nak campaign?

-Finally they may ask you about the usage of Calcium(Refer to my notes) -just refer my notes will do...ok

Chap 7: Electricity
Just read up what i thought u since i started this chapter esp. difference between series and parallel circuit interms of current,voltage and resistance,dont forget how to test north/south in magnet,the right hand grip rule,drawing the mangnetic field,factors increasing the electromagetic power(Refer to my notes)

Chap 8:Generation of Electricity
Focus on the type of generators i jst thought u,formula for transformers(turn ratios) and finally calculation on electricity bill and these formulaes:
i)Power = energy/times
ii)Current= Power/voltage
iii)To calculate price of electric bills: use this formula
First you total up the energy used/given in the question
A. Energy=kWh e.g: 1.2kW x 3 hours x 30 days = 108 kWh
(Refer to my notes esp. the calculation i did with you)
Secondly you multiply what you get in A to the energy cost
B. Cost of energy consumptions= 108kWh x RM 0.20 = RM 21.60

Chap 9 Stars and Galaxies
This is an important topi they'll ask yearly.First you target the layer of the sun i.e begins with Corona,Chromosphere,photosphere..Then you understand others like Solar flares,solar wind,black spots/sun spots.
-Then you must remember 4 atoms of hydrogen fused to form 1 atom of helium that explode on the surface of the sun and this is called NUCLEAR FUSSION not fission(Refer to my notes)
-finally the death of a star the size of the sun/bigger than the sun becomming a neutron star/black hole(Refer to my notes)

Chap 10: Space Explorations
This chapter is important if you focuses on two aspect i.e the technology in space exploration and its benefits...(Refer to my notes) as for the history of space exploration(Refer to my notes) look at the pink highlight of important dates and its events taken place in that year i asked you to colour.....
-you should also know the difference between space probes,satelites,rockets ,space shuttles and space stations

-firstly remember there are 8 types of force(Refer to intensive class notes)
-force change shape,size,speed,direction and stop a moving object
-focus on frictional force,it moves in opposite direction and has a magnitude(determined by types of surface-rough friction increase and weight increase friction increase)
-advantages of friction:stop/move and object,grip tight,produce music,climb(Refer to intensive class notes)

i )Woody plants i.e buttress-rain tree/angsana,prop roots-mangrove
ii )Non woody i.e thorns/prickles-rose,tendirls-cucumber,clasping roots-pepper plant,aerial roots-maize
-malfunction of human supports system: they use walking stick,crutches,walking frame
-beached whales(ikan paus)-inability to roll itself back to the sea cause its bones to small to support its weight (Refer to intensive class concept maps)

Chap 9: Stability
Focus on factor causes stability such as height and area of base
-Remember two things centre of gravity(COG) and base area(BA)(Refer to intensive class notes)
-to be stable COG must be low and BA must be wide (Refer to intensive class notes)
-to find COG the method using a string called Plumb line is used(Refer to intensive class notes)
-they may give you an object/toys/human skeletal system/furniture/lab apparatus/buildings/towers/diagram and ask you to determined which is stable ,so follow the guideline given above here(Refer to intensive class notes)


Chap 10: Simple Machine
First you focus on how to identify the difference between :
FIRST CLASS -fulcrum in centre e.g pliers,crowbar,scissors,see saw,hammer(Refer to intensive class notes)

THIRD CLASS -effort in centre e.g ice tongs,human arm,fishing rod,broom,golf club(same as broom)((Refer to intensive class notes)

-Then you focus on these formula Load x Distance of Load = Force x Distance of force
(Refer to intensive class notes)
