We humans top the species of this world. We are the foremost intelligent creatures on this planet. We can hold onto so many memories and so much information. But there is a process of obtaining this knowledge. We just can’t learn the quadratic equations right away at the age of seven. But we also need to check on the amount of knowledge that we are perfect with. So then we need examinations. Even though we don’t like exams we have to admit that some point we find exams as a competitive, fun-spirited event. But how exactly can we prepare for it? This essay can help you with it, for it’s a directory for now. We will see a few guidelines on how to prepare for an examination in particular class 10 CBSE board exams conducted by the NCERT.
For most of us, the tenth board exam is the first public exam. We might have participated in many competitions, but 10th boards are the first government authorized and regulated exams. It forms the sandstone of the city we can build in the future. It is a first certificate that legally states that you have studied and passed an important milestone in the education process of India to any person who attends the exam.
Now that the importance of this examination is discussed we can understand the amount of pressure that one goes through while in 10th grade. There is a lot of coercing by parents and teachers who want the same – students to score a good grade. But even the society always gets indulged in these topics and often criticizes and judges one based on their ability to study which then bulldozes a student even more especially if they are not too good in studies or have nerve issues. So given these circumstances, the students load themselves with books and end up having bad mental health because of the stress that they took in. But students, fear no more, by reading this you can have a better preparation method.
CBSE exams are tough. They test your capabilities. Not only raw knowledge but analytical thinking, value-based questions, and logical sums are encouraged. So to face this, firstly, be mentally prepared. One needs not to score full in everything. You have to do your best but need not do only the best. Have some ‘your’ time. Take a breather with perhaps some tea. Enjoy nature. Clear your mind. Since we can’t go out to play or walk around, relax in the balcony and enjoy the view. Do whatever interests you for a while. Secondly, have a proper timetable. Make sure you are engaged in any co-curricular activity. Music, dance, or drawings are few. Make time for some TV. But also make time for studying at least three subjects a day. Study a part of the portion of a chapter according to your capacity. Make a bulletin list. Be systematic so you know your way around your syllabus.
Thirdly, have good thoughts. It’s fine if you lose a few marks at the start. Make sure you don’t make those mistakes again. Learn from your past. Don’t sweat over it. Remember to never weigh against one another. It’s okay if your friends are ahead of you. Remember, slow and steady wins the race. Fourthly, if you don’t understand any concepts use the gadgetry available. Try to learn them from different sources. That might help you to get views on the same concept from many sources and clear up the tensions. Jot down the meanings of the unknown words. Fifthly, practice writing. Keep a timer and practice questions. Time management is pivotal during competitive examinations so we need to be very clever and careful in attempting our paper properly. Lastly, know what you want and like. There are a lot of adamant words about maths and science as the most important subjects. That is not true. They are hard, agreed. But with the right amount of practice they can be assimilated momentarily. So give equal focus on all the subjects if you want a good percentage.
The syllabus is generally of 5 subjects. Starting with the first language, English, it also has the standard subjects- Mathematics, Science, Social science, and the second language of your choice. It’s generally any of the vernacular languages like Hindi or any foreign languages like French, German, etc. The syllabus might be hard and long but it is a piece of cake if you understand the basic structural concepts. English course is divaricated into two books. One is the main text called the ‘First Flight’ and the other is the supplementary called ‘Footprints without Feet.’ These books comprise amazing poems and stories that are written by well-known authors and poets around the world which enlighten you with values of life like responsibilities, having good thoughts, and the pestiferous supernatural beliefs, etc. The tenth Math makes you curious and bewildered. The concepts are very easy once you get the hang of it. General Science is divided into Biology, Physics, and Chemistry. All concepts are related to the daily life scenarios and the way world works which makes it all the way more interesting. In Social Science, we get to explore four different topics that relate us to society. That is Geography, History, Economics, and Politics. Languages, well the portion depends on what 2nd languages you would choose.
The paper pattern is in the form of 20 + 80 marks which is the same for all subjects. The 20 marks are for internals which is again cleaved into 5 marks for multiple assessments in which the marks are taken from the general observation of the teachers in categories like participation in group discussions, quizzes, competitions, etc. 5 marks are accounted for portfolio, in which we make a thesis of all that we have learned in our entire year. 5 marks are for subject enhancement activity based on a topic given and the last 5 marks are in the form of pen and paper which are taken by considering the best of the 3 internal exams or tests that the school conducts. So these combine to form 20 marks of the year and the other 80 marks are the direct marks that we score from writing the boards in the hall and that is why everyone lays stress on these marks, as it brings out the meaning of ‘you get what you write.’ And just as a disclaimer, know that all the portion and paper is issued by the NCERT, India. So as discussed thorough preparation for a board exam is very important.
So having dealt with the preparatory ways and syllabus let’s move on to the subject of the preparatory methods. We need to practice as much as we can in the case of Physics, Chemistry, and Maths, and, in the case of Biology and Social we need to try to understand them and, we need to be as creative as we can when it comes to the languages. We ought to prepare on our own from the start of the year if we want a decent score. There are many preparatory ways. For example, we can make use of the technology that is available these days and search for online worksheets and take advantage of them. The other way of preparation can be done with the help of a few guide books. For 10 board exams, Math, practicing sums from RD Sharma’s guide is necessary. RD Sharma has gathered many problems in his work and has beautifully illustrated them making it student-friendly. RS Agarwal’s Math book and NCERT exemplar are also recommended. S Chand publications, the book ‘Together with Science’ by Rachna Sagar publications and the ‘All in one’ are recommended for Social and Science as each of them has carefully and beautifully published these books with enough information and creative learning methods. Oswaal publications are the one brand that happens to produce practice materials for every subject with the most creative methods and affordable prices with legible verified content. They have a wide range of questions and problems for one to solve. In the languages as well there are grammar and practice material for every subject so check them out. Make sure that at the end of the year one also practiced solving model question papers or the previous year’s question papers.
Now that we have seen how to prepare before boards we’ll see the do’s and don’ts while attempting the examinations. As discussed, time is precious. So always start attempting from the highest marked questions. Solving them first will give you time to think about the answers and write them in a poised and elaborate way. As the time ticks, we might be just left with one mark based questions that can be answered in a wink. If we start with the lowest to highest mark order, we might not have enough time left to attempt the larger questions properly and then we start having a panic attack. Next, underline all the important points or topics for a better answer. Examiners correct hundreds of papers per day and that is a very tedious job. So if you make your points visible and clear, your mark is guaranteed. So underlining them with a pencil is a very good hack. We are generally given 15 minutes starting grace time. Utilize that time for reading the question paper thoroughly. Lastly, never write anything on the question paper. This act could get you disqualified. So makes sure that you won’t write on the question paper.

“Success doesn’t lie in the ‘results’ but the efforts.” As the quote goes exams are important to learn about one’s capability and progress. But they are not everything. Rather than focusing on getting the best grades all the time we should work on improving our knowledge and try to be best at what we already know. We should not take exams too seriously and let them destroy us. Yes, some exams can decide our careers but they can never decide our life. They are many different fields of opportunities out there. Even the society needs to understand to not put tons of lead on the students. Parents these days go hyped about their kid’s results without even thinking about the hard work or appreciating it. Children scared of this society shaming, attempt suicide even though they know they are interested in something else or that there’s much more to them out in life. The school management and society should stop intimidating the kids to score well for their management growth but try to understand the kids. We should all start accepting the fact that everyone has potential. So let’s all try to create a supportive world that can help create a better world of opportunities and life where all can live differently yet similarly unified. Because ultimately the only thing that matters is that we all have a wonderful life.
We humans top the species of this world. We are the foremost intelligent creatures on this planet. We can hold onto so many memories and so much information.
