What you CAN DO

 

1) Learn to manage your time.

Be able to juggle all your commitments.

Spend time doing your project regularly, so that you would not be in a rush to finish what is required when the judging day arrives.

Sort out your priorities right according to the deadlines of the tasks.

Do not just focus on your homework and CCA.

 

2) Choose the people you would like to work with in your group.

Working with people you have more chemistry with will definitely benefit your progress for your project.

You will enjoy doing your project more with people you like.

 

3) Maintain healthy relationships with your group mates and mentor.

Do not be self-centered and only listen to your own views.

Take into account your group mates' and mentor's suggestions and opinions as well.

Quarrels will definitely occur, but try to minimise the occurence of them.

 

4) Meet your mentor more for more advice on how to improve your project.

Your mentor is always present to guide and help you for your project.

 

5) Choose a category and a topic that all your group mates are interested in.

Do not choose something you and your group dread doing. 

In this way, you and your group mates are more willing to spend more time and effort to work on the project.

You will enjoy your project even more.
