Quick answer: Students who score high in physics do not know more formulas; they follow a fixed routine for every numerical. Copy these six habits for two weeks and your speed doubles.
1. Write known and unknown first
u = 0, a = 2 m/s², t = 5 s, s = ? Three seconds of writing saves a minute of confusion.

2. Convert units before anything
km/h → m/s (÷ 3.6), cm → m, g → kg, minutes → seconds. Do it in the known-unknown list, not in the formula.
3. Pick the formula by variables
Choose the equation that contains exactly your knowns and the unknown. If none does, you need two steps — write both before calculating.
4. Draw the diagram
Free body diagram, ray diagram, circuit — even a rough one. Diagrams fix the sign convention, which is where most marks are lost.
5. Estimate the answer
Before calculating, guess the size: a car does not accelerate at 200 m/s²; a lens power is not 500 D. If the answer is far from the estimate, recheck.
6. Review errors weekly
Keep an error list: sign, unit, formula, calculation. After a month you will see one type dominates — fix that one.
