The moment you come into the 10th or 12th CBSE or GSEB or ICSE Board Class, all elders and relatives come up with all the advice in the world. Instead of making you relax, it just increases the stress and anxiety. With the competition increasing every year, students appearing for the Board exams find themselves at the edge of their wits, trying to grapple with the never-ending syllabus and the pressure put on them by the elders and relatives around them. In this blog, we bring to you a few tips on how to do well in the Board exams.
Plan Well
No work can be done well without planning ahead. When you plan ahead, you know exactly how much time you have at your disposal. You need to prepare a study schedule which takes care of the minutest details. Your detailed plan must ensure that you complete the syllabus well in advance, leaving you enough time to revise thoroughly. Many times, students prepare a schedule but are not able to stick to it. It is equally important that you stick to the schedule and study accordingly.
Prepare Notes
Preparing notes while studying is always a good habit as it not only helps in retention of the concepts but also gives you notes that you can refer to at the last minute. Many students would like to give a quick glance to the syllabus just a day or two before the exams. It is, obviously, not possible to cover the entire syllabus in a day or two. In this case, the notes are a big help. If you prepare visual notes, it is still better as they give you a quick visual representation of the content.
Take Pre-Boards Seriously
The pre board exams are a measure of where you stand and how well prepared you are for the exams. You can judge your strengths and weaknesses on the basis of the pre-board exams. In many cases, it acts as a wake-up call to arouse the students from their slumber. These exams make the students realise that Boards are fast approaching and they increase their pace of studies. They also give the students the needed confidence to appear for the final exams.
Attempt Previous Years’ Papers
Attempting previous year’s papers is always very beneficial to students. It helps in time management and gives them an idea of the difficulty level of the exam. The students also get familiar with the frequently asked questions. It gives them a clear idea of the weightage of the different topics so that they can prepare accordingly.
Regular Breaks
