Have an early night, and try to have a healthy breakfast. Read the full Question paper. Where you have choices, decide which ones you plan to answer. Spend some time drafting a plan for the questions you choose to answer. While you are answering one question, information about another may suddenly occur to you.

HOW TO PREPARE FOR EXAMINATIONS EFFECTIVELY-I

HOW TO PREPARE FOR EXAMINATIONS EFFECTIVELY-I Examinations serve several purposes, the foremost of which is to inform the examiner regarding the amount of knowledge possessed by the student. In discovering this, two methods may be employed; first, to test whether or not the student knows certain things, plainly a reproductive exercise; second, to see how well the student can apply his knowledge. But this is not the only function of an examination. It also shows the student how much he knows or does not know. Again the examination often serves as an incentive to harder work on the part of the student, for if one knows there will be an examination in a subject, one usually studies with greater zeal than when an examination is not expected. Lastly, an examination may help the student to link up facts in new ways, and to see them in new relationships. In this aspect, you readily see that examinations constitute a valuable device in learning. But students are not very patient in philosophiz...

CBSE CLASS X AND XII: MAXIMIZE YOUR SCORE

Try to stay in perspective when answering all questions. Follow instructions carefully and think hard about what exactly the question is asking from you. Some may be very simple, so try not to over-interpret or you risk missing the supposedly easy parts. For true or false type of tests, look for terms that might refer to a false statement such as “never”, “none”, “always” and other absolute words. For multiple choice and matching types, cross out items that immediately do not make sense. The process of elimination is a highly effective tool in leading you to the right answer. One useful tip is looking for two opposing statements. On most occasions, one of these is usually the right answer. Matching type tests should be answered starting from the easiest. This will help narrow down available answers wherein you can possibly make a calculated guess. To help you maximize time, answer the easy questions first. Do not spend more than one minute on a number and immediately move on to the nex...
