Author: Diya Johns

Seasons of examinations are one of the most hectic and stressful for many. This could be rightly so since examination is the one time opportunity for class 10th and 12th students to prove their mastery of knowledge and ability to synthesize analyze and explain the concepts they have been taught in class, and in research.

The ability to understand and apply what you learn, and not just memorize the concepts is at the heart of board exams hence students ought to invest in their studies, research and revision.

Allocating time for studies to CBSE study material is one of the most critical aspects of achieving the goal of understanding and learning. The study habits and preferences, go a long way in helping students grasp the knowledge. A student should be able to identify the optimal study time when they are most alert and least likely to be interrupted. This should be a time when the student has assembled and prepared his study materials.

As a student takes the time to study, mastery of fundamental NCERT concepts is vital. He should seek to understand particular phrases and key words used, at the same time underlining words and phrases he does not understand and looking them up in the dictionary. The time a student needs to study varies from students to student but irrespective of which every student should take breaks of designated times to refresh in between the study sessions, which maybe a short walk or a nap.

Revision of study notes and sample CBSE NCERT solutions ought to be done soonest after a class so as to be able to remember most of what the lecturers taught. Revision session is also the time to expound on-short hand- and short notes. Referring back to notes keeps a student's memory aware of the concepts and principles which in turns helps to build a deeper understanding of the course.

With a clearer perspective of the particular concept a student should then seek out to discuss and pass through the topics with other student in the class. This gives rise to the need for study groups. No matter how well a student is versed in a particular subject the range, scope and illumination that other students bring with them to the study group are indispensable. Students ought to form study groups of between four and six members to peruse through the notes and any relevant and related materials, sharing of their understanding and relying on the collective capacity of the group to tackle questions and insights that arise during the study time.

Past papers is one of the treasure troves a student has at his disposal during preparation for examinations. The past papers help students to internalize examination methods, aspects of teaching he has not understood and the trend in setting of the examinations. Students therefore have a need to seek out past papers of examinations and revise them in their study groups and any questions that prove to be outside the understanding of the group should be referred to other members of the class for analysis.
