PSEB 12th prep Tips 2026

  • Follow a proper schedule

Sleep early, get up early in the morning, have a proper breakfast, and then begin to study for PSEB 12th exams 2026. Do not stay up late and worry about counter-productive moments. Keep preparing for the important day. Take out an hour or two to relax and not think about the exams. Read, sleep, play, or do whatever you think diverts your attention away from exams.

  • Don’t have too much on your plate

Exercise your brain in a constructive way, and do not burden it with a lot of thoughts. Be clear in your mind and do not pressure to cover things that are beyond reach. Make realistic targets for a day. Do not overdo things. Do not try and study everything in a single day. Try taking it slow and apportioning revision accordingly. Of the five or six subjects, pick up two or a maximum of three subjects and pick up a topic or two from each and go into the depths of the topics, instead of skimming 8-10 topics.

  • Mix and match

It is important to have all the essential ingredients while studying. Do not have all easy subjects/topics in a day or do not overburden one with topics that they find difficult. To maximize the output, start the “study day” with a light subject for an hour or so, once warmed up, take up a heavy subject or a topic. Study that for two hours or so and gradually increase the level of preparation.

  • Solve sample papers

It is important that students solve as many PSEB 12th previous years' question papers for better preparation of the exam. These make one familiar with the exam pattern, type of questions asked, duration of the exam, and much more. Students must keep in mind to solve the complete sample paper within the stipulated time. this will help them time management too.

  • Practice the art of relaxation

Exercise and meditation help improve concentration. Many of the athletes and sports professionals regularly employ meditation methods. Studies have found a direct correlation between concentration exercises (meditation) and the performance level of sports professionals. 

Meditation strengthens the mind, it comes under control and is able to provide effective guidance to the physical body to effectively execute all its projects. Psychological Exercises are a powerful way of improving concentration and improving mental strength.

So go for a walk in the park early in the morning before beginning to study or spend 15 minutes meditating, adopting yoga poses.
