RBSE 10th Preparation 2026: Tips, Strategy & Guide

Students are suggested to follow these tips to ace the RBSE 10th exam 2025:

• Plan precisely: Students must make a subject plan and finish it within the deadline. They need to work both as a student and a supervisor. In other words, self-learning and self-monitoring should be prioritised. This would not only help to complete the lessons within the time but would also save one from the last moment rush. Preparing for the exams strategically is highly important.
• Practice: Subjects like Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry are filled with equations, derivations, and formulae. It is pretty difficult for the students to learn and grasp each formula. They must write it and practice it as much as they can. Apart from easy learning, enough practising would allow them to use the formulae appropriately.
• Solve previous years’ question papers: One of the best ways to analyse one’s preparation is to solve the past 10-year of RBSE question papers of each subject. One should solve it as directed and within the allotted time. Practising helps in knowing the strengths and weaknesses.
• A regular break is important: To focus nicely, a short yet relaxing break is highly recommended. Energising the brain with a short break on an hourly basis is very important. Take a walk or watch a comedy episode to relax and refresh. This would help in preparing the mind for the next schedule. Sitting for long hours may lead to failed attempts at concentrating. Students must remember that the content that they understand matters the most rather than the time they spent on it.
• Practice by writing: Uniform speed in writing without compromising the accuracy factor is highly important. To complete the entire question set within the given time is very important for good scores. The common proverb 'Practice Makes A Man Perfect,' perfectly fits this. With enough practice, one can maintain that speed at the examination centre as well. Moreover, it would also help in grasping the lessons more easily. 
• Know your strengths and weaknesses: Students should be aware of their positive and negative factors. Work on the weaker subjects and improve it. For example: if you face problems in solving any equation, practice it consistently and seek help from the tutors or classmates. When you master your weak subjects, you can score better.
• Study on target basis: It can be difficult at the beginning to stick to the time-table. However, if you get used to it, it is easy to concentrate. Give proper time to each subject so that you may complete it within the time limit while properly revising it. Make sure to not include long hours of study, include short breaks in it for a considerable focus on each subject. 
• Remain physically and mentally fit: Pressure of anything might impact the health of the students. Avoid taking too much pressure of the subject, examination, and the grades. Apart from the regular studies, a comfortable sleep, a balanced diet, and wholesome exercise are also very important. Meditation is the best way to concentrate on studies. Stay motivated throughout to ensure better preparation.
• Reliable sample books: Students must ensure that the sample books/ papers they are referring to are reliable enough. Solving the sample papers would help in knowing the syllabus and marking scheme in detail. However, it is suggested to go through the marking schemes released by the Board. Studying and writing answers as per the marks would add an impressive impact upon the examiner.
• Attentively read the question: The first 15 minutes are provided to go through the question paper. Before writing, it is very important to understand what is asked. Writing the answers logically and briefly is very important. For this, use the given 15 minutes to make strategies on how to go about the answers. Avoid filling the paper as it irritates the examiner.
• Maintain your speed and accuracy: Maintaining the speed from starting is very important. However, make sure you do not compromise on the accuracy. Generally, students take high pressure to complete it in time but in turn, commits several mistakes. Such silly mistakes should be avoided and be focused while writing the answers.
• Keep it simple and sleek: Writing an answer in an understanding way is very important. Too complicated or complicated language should not be used. Conceptual answers written precisely in an easy language is what the examiners expect.
• Strictly follow the word count: Another crucial thing that you should be very particular about is the word count. Generally, students write too long answers for high marked questions. In turn, the answers exceed the required word count and the examiners feel frustrated to read the long answers. For science papers, the answer should be short and precise. Consequently, to write the answers for social science, arrange it pointwise to make it look concluding.
• Prioritise the important questions: Another essential factor that would help you score better is to give priority to the important questions. Before taking a step into the difficult questions, attempt those that are easy and you know the answers well. When the beginning is well, it will genuinely impact the examiners.

No matter how well you focus on the preparations, there are some things to which the students should say a big no. In this digitised era, students are highly attracted to social media and online gaming. Until the prepare for the exams is done, students should refrain from such distractions. Students are quite eager about the vacations after the examinations are complete. Rather than remaining engaged in unnecessary planning, they must focus on their studies.

There is enough time to prepare and revise for the exams. In the entire period of planning and preparing, students should remain calm and focused. Make sure that the exam preparation is done well in time. Although grades do not define the person, it plays a significant role in getting admissions in renowned schools and colleges.
