In this paper, a symmetric eight-step predictor method (explicit) of 10th order is presented for the numerical integration of IVPs of second-order ordinary differential equations. This scheme has variable coefficients and can be used as a predictor stage for other implicit schemes. First, we showed the singular P-stability property of the new method, both algebraically and by plotting the stability region. Then, having applied it to well-known problems like Mathieu equation, we showed the advantage of the proposed method in terms of efficiency and consistency over other methods with the same order.
