Srishty Choudhury

Board exams are a big fear for some students    so here are some tips to prepare better. 

Time management is key when preparing for board exams. Create a well-structured study schedule that includes dedicated time slots for each subject. Break down your syllabus into manageable portions and set achievable daily or weekly goals.

Time Management

Identify your weaker subjects or topics and allocate more time to strengthen them. Focus on understanding concepts rather than rote learning. 

Prioritise Weak Areas

Mock tests are invaluable tools for exam preparation. Simulate exam conditions as closely as possible and attempt mock tests regularly to assess your progress. Analyze your performance, identify weaknesses, and refine your strategies accordingly. 

Practice Regularly with Mock Tests

Maintain a positive attitude towards your exams and believe in your abilities. Visualize success and stay motivated throughout the preparation process. Surround yourself with supportive peers and family members who encourage and uplift you. 

Stay Positive and Confident

Once the syllabus is covered, solve the previous year's question papers within the specific time. This will help you work out the specific time required for each section. Please ensure you get feedback for the practice papers from your teachers.

Work on time management 

Explore apps and tools that can enhance your study experience.

Use technology to your advantage

Studying nonstop can lead to burnout. Practice mindfulness or meditation to stay clam. 

Don't neglect mental health
