On the exam day for Xitsonga HL P2: what to do and what to take

Alright, so the big day arrives. What next? Firstly, make sure you arrive at the exam venue at least an hour before the start time, which means aiming to be there by 08:00 for your 09:00 Xitsonga HL P2 paper. This gives you time to calm your nerves, find your seat, and settle in without rushing. No need for stress and panic just before you write! Remember to have a light breakfast; you don’t want to be hungry or too full. And for your Xitsonga HL P2 paper, here’s a list of things you must take with you:

• Your Identity Document (ID) or your birth certificate. No ID, no exam, swi nga ka swi nga tirhi!
• Your Statement of Entry or Examination Admission Letter. This confirms you are registered for the exam.
• At least two black or blue pens. Make sure they are working well. You don’t want a pen running out in the middle of your Xitsonga essay!
• A clear pencil case. This helps invigilators see what’s inside quickly.
• A ruler, in case you need to underline or draw lines for structure.
• A pencil and an eraser for rough work or planning, which you can erase later.
• A bottle of water (label removed) to stay hydrated.
• No electronic devices are allowed, no phones, no smartwatches. Vana lava, a hi tinyikele hi mbilu leyi baseke!

Inside the exam room, respect the rules. Listen to the invigilator’s instructions carefully. Read your question paper thoroughly before you start writing. Manage your time wisely, ensuring you allocate enough time to each section, especially your literary analysis and perhaps your essay. Think before you write, and express yourself clearly and concisely in Xitsonga. Show them what you know!

Keeping track of your dates

How do you make sure you don’t forget this crucial date? Simple! Write it down in multiple places. Put it on your study timetable, stick a note on your fridge, set a reminder on your phone, and tell your family to remind you. Repetition is key. Talk about it with your friends, “Hi ta hlangana hi siku ra Xitsonga P2, November 20, 2025!” The more you internalise the date, the less likely you are to forget it. Good luck, swichudeni! We believe in you!
