How did you develop the recipe of Logical Problem Solving?

"I remember the visual image of every page of my notes (about 30 pages for the whole ‘A’ Level Physics syllabus. Since then, all examinations are ‘Open-Book’ to me. Imagine me flipping pages of my summarized notes in my head! Yes! That’s what I do."

Can you guide me in writing my own notes?
The notes we are going to prepare should be organized in a way to help you at a time when you need it most and that’s during the examinations!"

How are your notes going to help a student do well in the examinations?


"... when you practise, you will be able to understand the types of questions that will be asked. ....experiment with different approaches to solve the same question... the most efficient and effective approach. That’s learning. Through the entire process, you will better understand the concepts involved. In other words, you will discover a ‘system’ to solve questions of different concepts. You will write your own notes, formulate your own ‘system’ "

Are you encouraging students to just follow a set of procedures instead of using a more intuitive approach to solve questions?

"You are not going to practise during the exam itself! In the exam, you are required to show what you have learnt and how you can apply what you have learnt. It’s obvious, the exam takes a maximum of 3 hours, but you are going to take 20 months to learn and master the content."

Does that mean that anyone who has your notes will be able to score an A in 'A' level?

"An ‘A’ grade student behaves differently. He looks at your system, understands the principle behind the system, tests the system on different questions, and fine-tunes the system to cover a wider scope of questions. He will first accept and then improve."

Assuming a student has written his own notes, will there be a possibility that there will be an unfamiliar question which he cannot answer in the examinations?

"It may be abstract but definitely not unfamiliar unless it is out of the syllabus. When this happens, it’s actually a SIGNAL for him to SKIP the question first."

I feel that the main problem for a student is the initial part, prior to writing his own notes. What if he does not even understand the concepts in the topic?


"Start by doing what's necessary, then what's possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible." With a SYSTEM, you can now do the impossible."

Can we use LPS in other ‘A’ Level subjects besides Physics?


"To come up with a system requires time, experience and most importantly, deeper understanding of the concepts in the subject. It’s not easy, but it’s going to be useful.
