- Frequent and regular breaks
- Health consciousness

- Previous year question papers
Have enough time to study:
Set up a time table for your study. Make a note of
number of exams and days to prepare then organize accordingly. It may take more
time for exams than others and allocate time based on that.
Select the area of study:
- Find a calm environment.
- Have enough space to keep your textbooks and notes to spread out.
- Make sure the light is enough for your clear vision.
- Have a comfortable seat.
- Try to avoid distractions and feel comfort and focused as follows:
- Complete silence, Clutered environment, Background music
- Whichever is suitable for you.
- Make sure the gadgets like mobile phones, pc, tv etc., are in out of focus in order to avoid distractions.
Revise and rehearse:
Write down whatever you know about the topic in a
paper for revision. Ask your brother, sister, parents to question you and
answer them. This will make clear about the topic.
Get together with your friends and have a study
revision. You can have questions or answers and your friends have vice versa.
This will make you challenging.
Frequent and regular breaks:
Don’t think that it is better to study as many hours
as possible. Imagine for a sports running for 24 hours continuously will make
you tired and ineffective.
Similarly for studies, have regular breaks and avoid
long term reading. Develop a study routine which suits you. Whether in the
morning start after breakfast or if it is in night-time try to settle down
earlier in the evening.
Health consciousness:
- Look at the sunrise and enjoy for some time since vitamin D is useful to brain.
- Choose natural fresh and vitamin rich foods.
- Eat the foods which suits your body and avoid the foods giving problems to your body.
- Drink plenty of water and stay hydrated while studying and even during an exam.
Good sleep routine:
Human body and mind rests during sleep and regains
energy also the daily metabolism cycle is improved and strength is increased.
A good sleep routine is 8 hours recommended by
doctors. Some prefer sleeping in early morning and sleep late night and some prefer
sleeping in night time. So have a check about which routine suits you and
maintain a healthy and proper sleep routine.
Prioritize more on important topics:
Try to concentrate on topics which are 30-40 % of the
entire syllabus. There is a chance of more questions from these topics and
getting some marks definitely by focusing these headings.
Consider more time for challenging topics.
Highlighting, underlining, taking notes, re-reading leads to efficient learning
process.
Take some time to find resources, videos, articles in
websites, visual presentations in order to make the content understanding and
interesting which motivates the study.
Seek the important topics anything left and try to
focus on improving the studies on them. Have a practice test yourself writing
the information you know and try to complete it by fixed duration.
Previous year question papers:
If you feel you have covered more topics try to go for
previous year question papers and solve them.
Look at the question paper pattern first. Divide the
marks and allot the total time for each question. Calculate the time to be used
for answering individual questions. Try to write the answer at home by that
duration level.
Some points to be noted preparing subject wise:
Mathematics:
For most of the students mathematics is the challenging
one. First go for basic topics, formulae and simple solving of problems. Practice
calculations and numerical problems.
Review
the use of calculator, shortcuts for equation like square root, cube, fractions
which will improve the speed of solving the problem in mathematics.
Physics:
Understand fundamental theorems, application level
questions, model question paper. While doing lab classes try to have a theory oriented
ideas based on the experiments.
Biology:
Practice memorizing more text and drawing diagrams.
Drawing diagrams with more speed leads to effective exam writing as far as
biology subject is concerned.
Chemistry:
Basic reactions, formulae, periodic table should be
reviewed thoroughly. Complex reactions and formulae practicing leads to second
level. Understanding chemical reactions in the laboratory reacts in the
knowledge of the subject.
English:
Writing long paragraphs, essays will improve the
clarity of writing. Practice more writing of the words which increases the
speed of writing. Try to expand your vocabulary by searching new words outer the
syllabus.
Computer Science:
Learning syntax, key words and codes thoroughly. Use
online resources and tutorials to expand the knowledge of coding.
