Here they share their insights and tips on how they excelled in their DSE studies.
1. Time management and self-discipline
Norris Kung Yan-long, 18, a super top scorer from St Paul's Co-education College who studied physics, chemistry, economics and mathematics extended module 2 (M2), said that self-discipline, having goals and setting a target were the most important factors in achieving his grades.
'Rest is necessary, but you should also define your timetable and know when to study. There must be a goal set on how much to cover, or perhaps, which topics you are not as familiar with, and do targeted revision based on that,' Kung added.
Ian Yau Pok-yan, a top scorer from Cheung Chuk Shan College said making good use of 'scattered time' was important.
