Great — here are real-Cambridge summaries for three of your subjects (Chemistry, Biology,
Economics) based on the official syllabuses. Then I’ll give you the full week timetable in the format
you provided (with your arrival time at 5:30 PM, everyday study, Sunday church etc.). We can add the
other subjects (Maths, English, Literature, ICT, French) later if you like.
📘 Subject Summaries
1. Chemistry (IGCSE 0620)
Main topics / units (Core + Supplement) from the syllabus: (Cambridge International)
States of Matter — solids, liquids, gases, changes of state. (Save My Exams)
Atoms, Elements and Compounds — atomic structure, periodic table, elements vs
compounds, ions. (PMT)
Stoichiometry — formulae, reacting masses, limiting reactants. (PMT)
Electrochemistry — electrolysis, cells. (PMT)
Chemical Energetics — exothermic/endothermic, energy changes. (PMT)
Chemical Reactions — types of reaction, rates, equilibrium. (Save My Exams)
Acids, Bases and Salts — properties, salts preparation, pH. (PMT)
Periodic Table, Metals, Chemistry of the Environment, Organic Chemistry — further units.
(PMT)
What you should focus on (age-13 friendly, exam next week):
Make sure you understand each unit: e.g., know what an element is vs a compound; how the
periodic table is organised.
Practice equations and calculations (stoichiometry) — lots of marks come from working out
masses and reacting amounts.
Know key definitions (acid, base, salt, catalyst, etc.).
Use diagrams for metals/reactivity, periodic table trends.
For the “supplement” topics (if your teacher expects A/B grades), try the
environmental/organic units.
Use past paper questions where possible.
2. Biology (IGCSE 0610)
Main topics (based on syllabus) include: (Cambridge International)
1. Characteristics & classification of living organisms
2. Organisation of the organism (cells, tissues, organs)
3. Movement into & out of cells (diffusion, osmosis, active transport)
4. Biological molecules (carbohydrates, proteins, lipids)
5. Enzymes
6. Plant nutrition
7. Human nutrition
8. Transport in plants
9. Transport in animals
10. Diseases & immunity
11. Gas exchange in humans
12. Respiration
13. Excretion in humans
14. Coordination & response
15. Drugs
16. Reproduction
17. Inheritance
18. Variation & selection
19. Organisms & their environment
20. Human influences on ecosystems
What you should focus on:
Diagrams: cells, organs (heart, lungs, roots, leaves) — draw and label.
Processes: photosynthesis, respiration, osmosis, immune responses — understand steps and
why.
Key definitions & differences: e.g., diffusion vs osmosis.
Ecology & environment: how humans impact ecosystems.
Genetics/inheritance: simple punnett squares maybe.
Use past questions to recognise how they ask about those units.
3. Economics (IGCSE 0455)
Main topics/sections (from syllabus) include: (Cambridge International)
The basic economic problem: scarcity, choice, factors of production, opportunity cost.
Allocation of resources: how markets work, supply & demand, market failure.
Microeconomic decision-makers: firms, households, workers.
Government and the macroeconomy: fiscal policy, monetary policy, inflation, unemployment.
Economic development: developed vs developing countries, living standards, poverty.
International aspects: trade, exchange rates, specialisation.
What you should focus on:
Understand and memorise the key terms (scarcity, opportunity cost, specialization).
Supply & demand graphs: you should be able to draw and explain shifts.
Real-world examples: using your country or familiar context helps.
Government policies: know what fiscal, monetary mean and how they affect economy.
International trade: know terms like exports, imports, balance of payments.

Key rules to follow:
Study one main subject unit each session, then a second subject afterwards.
Use the short breaks to refresh your mind.
Ensure you sleep early especially before exam days.
On Sunday, keep it lighter and use the time to plan and review rather than heavy new work.
Use your study guide above (and additional ones) to know which unit you’ll focus on each
day.

wall. Would you like that?
