How to prepare for Maths & Science CBSE class 10...
The subjects which scare students the most are the dreaded Maths and Science in class 10th. CBSE students find it especially difficult to grasp even the basic concepts of Maths and Science. They find themselves lost in the formulas and reactions and species. The 10th board examinations also play a huge role in a student’s choice of streams. For students aiming to take PCM or PCB for their 11th and 12th, they must score well in Maths and Science in their class 10 board examinations. Below are some really helpful tips which would help you to prepare for your Maths and Science exam:
- Refer Previous Years’ Question Papers and Sample Papers
Referring to last years’ question papers helps you to understand the level of questions that come in the board exams. It also helps in assessing your level of preparation and understand the important topics. Solving sample papers will make you familiar with the format of the board paper and help in the understanding of chapter-wise dissection of marks. In the case of maths, it helps in enhancing the practice of the student and helps in memorizing the formulas.
- Make a separate notebook for formulas and notes
For Maths, making a separate notebook for writing formulas is highly advisable as would be helpful in revision and memorizing them. You may also include theories and methods in it too. Keep revisiting the notebook from time to time which will help you in memorizing them and not forget them on the day of your boards.
For Science, a notebook with partition for Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Make sure you have all the physics concepts and formulas written down. Also, cover every important topic like Newton’s laws of motion etc. Make notes of complex terminologies and processes that are given in your NCERT book. Notes in Chemistry should include balancing chemical molecules, salts and its compounds. Make extensive notes on the conversion of compounds, the modern periodic table.
- Practice Diagrams and Questions
In the case of Biology, a student should have all the diagrams by heart and should at least have practiced them several times and should know the labeling. For Maths, except for NCERT students should go for either RD Sharma or RS Aggarwal as they cover the topics mentioned in the NCERT extensively and in detail. They also have an ample amount of questions on every topic which every student should practice several times. Also, keep revising formulas from time to time. Do not take graph questions lightly as they carry a considerable amount of marks in the board paper which can help you score better.
- Keep Mixing the subjects during preparation
To prevent the studies to feel more like a chore, try to mix up the topics and subjects you pick up for studying as staying on one subject and topic can stress you out. Make a schedule for every week with realistic goals which you can achieve while enjoying your studies. Try taking breaks after 40-50 mins of studies and keep yourself physically active during the preparation time.
