I critically analyse all my pre boards and also before pre-boards, I made sure I was reading the NCERT thoroughly and I was attempting as many questions as I could find.

A. I finished the CBSE syllabus one and a half months before my first pre-board exams.

After the test, it is very important to analyses the results and ensure not to repeat the mistakes. Be consistent in your efforts. Never do it for 2-3 weeks and then relax. Very important - eat well, sleep optimum and exercise at least for 10 minutes every day.

A spelling error on your Class 10 or 12 marksheets will not cancel your JEE 2027 application, as the NTA form relies on what you type during registration. However, matching names and details across your ID and certificates is critical to avoid verification issues during JoSAA counselling.
