CBSE Class 12th Chemistry Preparation Tips – Important Topics, Sample Papers by ALLEN Experts

When an examination that is believed to be life-changing is round the corner, it could be a stressful time for many students. These examinations not only test a child’s knowledge and calibre but also the preparation and hard work that he/she has put in. While writing the examination there is one thing that is more important than knowledge, it is the smartness of attempting the paper. And this smartness can only arise if a child has prepared himself well and is aware as to how to write down the paper.

The following are the tips that are put down by our subject matter expert to help your child prepare well and to know how to study the smart way

A CHECKLIST FOR THE EXAMINATION:

Be relaxed and confident in the examination hall
Be punctual as the entry in the examination hall will be exactly at 10 AM and no student will be permitted post the entry time.
The question paper will be distributed at 10.15 AM and you would be given exactly 15 mins to read the question paper
Seal of the answer sheet will be removed at 10.30 AM and you will have precisely 3 hrs. to finish your paper so manage your time effectively
Make sure you answer every question in a clear handwriting
Do not make use of red, green, and any other coloured pen
Try to complete your paper at least 10 to 15 minute before, so that you have time to briefly recheck of your answer
Make sure to recheck your answer script as it will help you in avoiding any silly mistake

SUBJECT SPECIFIC PREPARATION TIPS:

Attempt at least 3 full syllabus mock tests & maintain a copy of their corrected answer
Always attempt the long answers first
Before selection carefully read the internal choice of a particular question
For conceptual question of IOC do the solved as well as in text example of NCERT
Do the latest CBSE sample paper
Attempt numerical in the end and avoid calculation
Prepare a study plan and make sure it is time bound for all the subjects
Solve sample paper as it will help you in boosting your confidence
Try to understand the topics instead of rote learning them
To break the monotony, occasionally study with your friends and discuss some explanatory topics
