Of course there are. In this article, I will carefully select and explain the 3 most frequently asked points that have been asked many times in my analysis of the national secondary examination Earth Science.

Many of you may be confused by the lack of information about the second examination Earth Science.

And moreover, you feel like you have to solve and find the frequent points of the second examination Earth Science by yourself. (I was the same way…).

In this article, let’s learn with the guinea pigs about those frequent points that have been asked over and over again!
