now focusing on the maths papaer
Step 1 : Preperation
Stick to NCERT text books. Do all qustions without leaving anything. Give importance to Example problems in NCERT.
Since 2010, 95% of questions were asked directly from NCERT but this past time (2016) only less than 60% questions were asked from it. Rest were from R D Sharma. You can't fully depend on previous years questions, as in 2016 paper only one question was from 2012 maths paper. So do NCERT and R D Sharma neatly .
Must do CBSE official Sample papers .
Make quick notes on important formulas especially from 3-D,integrals on your diary so that you can revise them easily. Do all questions from probability!!
Use R D Sharma mainly for the following chapters :
3 D
Determinants
Integrals
Differntial equation
Application of integration
Vectors
If you have no time , the rest of the chapters can be prepared from NCERT.
Step 2:Revision
Revise all the important questions and formulas from a chapter weekly. Do mock test after preparing all the chapters. Many students take mock test on a particular chapter after finishing that one chapter. This is not the way to do it.
Don't work hard in the night before exam.. Just be cool and take a look at most important questions told by your teacher. It will surely come ..100 % sure. Revise all your formulas at this time. Sleep well and Good night .
At the morning, during 5-6 AM, revise your formulas once again. Don't try to study anything new from other reference books at the morning.
Step 3:Dooms Day.. Exam Day..
Make sure you keep your formula book on the way to your exam center. Just to make it sure .
Do not forget Hall ticket. Eat a small choclate candy while travelling to exam center. The aroma and caffene make you refreshed and brain cells more efficient. Don't eat heavy molten choclates as it may trouble you physically during exam time. (I meant stomach disorders).
Do not discuss with your friends before exam . And do not tense while seeing other students mugging up a huge book. Just be cool ..
Step 4: Exam time...
Be cool and hope for the best .Dont be nervous while seeing the paper. Be positive. Drink a glass of water before the exam and at 12:30. It will make you brain more efficient and refreshed. I said 12:30 cuz it is the time when you look the booklet for any mistakes . You will get nervous this time.. So drink water !!!
Write answers very neatly and start with section you know the most .It will create a good impression while the evaluator checks your paper. Manage your time and leave the difficult questions for last. Write all the steps elaboarately.
If you find difficulty in simplifying, leave that answer just like that and move on. Do not leave Section A !!!!
You will do good in all the questions and exam is over. Don't discuss answers with your friends. Be cool and positive.
