Sam, HELP!!! It's exam time. I need your help. You're good at exams ...
Haha! Yeah, I can help you. You're my favourite cousin! 
Thanks. What can I do? I have lots to learn and not much time.
Don't worry – plan your time. Make a timetable.
How many hours a day do I need to study?
Well ... start studying 3 or 4 weeks before your exams. The first week, study about an hour a day.
That isn't too much!
No, it's not much at all. Choose a couple of days to have free too.
Free days? Are you sure?
Yeah, it's important to do other things. You need time to do your normal homework and see friends too.
And play football.
Study for an hour and a half a day the second week. And the week before exams, you can study for two hours a day.
Every day?
No. You can have some days free for football and TV.
The important thing is to write everything in a timetable and then do it!
Cool. It sounds quite easy.
It is! Try it! Start now and plan your study timetable.
You're the best! Thanks.
Good luck!
