5 Tips to follow if you are studying in CBSE Class 10
India is a country obsessed with marks, where your fate is decided by marks and your intelligence is also decided by marks. So, your scores expected in CBSE Class 10 means almost everything, even more than your parents’ expectations. You also need to remember all the complex formulae and challenging concepts of the syllabus which add to the pressure. TopperLearning presents 5 tips you need to follow to clear the CBSE Class 10 examinations with great marks.
1) Understand all the concepts in-depth: Over the years, the CBSE exams are becoming challenging as some students are scoring 95%+ marks, but they are still not able to get admissions in good colleges. But is this reason to worry?
Not at all, you need to worry only if you cannot understand the fundamentals and concepts of a subject. Because the fundamentals you will learn will also be used in the future. Time management and learning all the concepts will definitely help you to achieve success in the examination.
2) Keep all formulae handy: Reactions are often frightening as you need to remember formulae. However, you must figure out a trick; a trick which will help you to remember all the formulae. Do you remember counting your knuckles? As a kid, you use to remember and differentiate between odd and even numbers by counting your knuckles. It also helped you to count things like the number of days in a month. Similarly, remembering and understanding formulae with similar simple tricks will help you when answering the CBSE Class 10 exams.
3) Solve previous years’ question papers: It is usually said that history repeats itself. In simple words, refer to CBSE Class 10 board exam past year papers. While regular practice will make you perfect, referring to previous years’ question papers will help you pass the examinations with flying colours. To excel in Mathematics especially, you need to refer to previous years’ question papers. Most questions which will be asked in your examination will be from previous years’ question papers (about 40%).
4) Refer to NCERT Solutions: There was an ancient quote, ‘Work hard, fruits will be sweet in the future’. This was later replaced with ‘Work smart, you are born to win’. Similarly, students who want to clear their examinations with high marks need to refer to the NCERT Solutions. These Solutions containing all the explanations and questions are recommended by CBSE for study.
5) Create a 90-day plan: A quick solution to success is worth nothing; hard work and preparation should be smart. You need to make a 90-day plan before the examination and should strictly follow the schedule. Once you start doing this, you will definitely see improvement and you will succeed in the CBSE Class 10 examination.
