Commonly asked questions
Q:   I will be in class 12 next month. What should be my strategy to get above 95% in CBSE class 12 board exam?
A: 

You can definitely score above 95% in your CBSE 12th exams by following a structured study plan. Here are some tips and tricks you can follow:-

  1. Biology:- For biology NCERT is more than enough. Just practice more questions and improve your writing style like always write in points instead of long and monotonous paragraphs. Diagrams are of utmost importance, so always give special attention to diagrams.
  2. Chemistry:-
    • Organic:- Study ncert reactions thoroughly instead of studying extra from help books. Name reactions are the most important. Always practice reactions by writing them.
    • Inorganic:- Prepare your own notes for studying inorganic from NCERT or any other help book.
    • Physical:- Keep an eye on graphs and formulas which will eventually help you to solve numericals .
  1. Physics:- I would prefer you to study physics from any reference book (like fundamental physics by pradeep publications) instead of studying NCERT first . You will find it difficult if you try to clear your concepts directly from NCERT.
  2. Maths:- Practice pactice and practice. After completing NCERT I used to practice questions from modern's abc book.

Some other important things to consider:

  • Revise as much as you can.

  • Practice time bound sample papers for subjects like physics maths english etc.
  • Consistency is the key.

Q:   Is CBSE 12th board exam paper easy or hard?
A: 

CBSE Class 12 Board exams are usually on the moderate side of the spectrum but it totally depends on your preparation level and how the board is going to set the paper. It also depends on the checking. You have to prepare well in your board exams for scoring well.
