Section D actually comprises 50% of the entire paper. You should attempt those questions first that carry more marks and the ones which you know how to solve.ย This will save your time and help you to prevent wasting time on repeated attempts in solving those questions you donโ€™t know.

For example, in the matrix method, by substituting values of x, y and z in any of the given equations, by evaluating the integral directly, the limit of sum can be checked. Also, by using the standard formulae, if vertices are given, students can check their answers in some AOI questions. So, check and verify your answers before submitting the answer sheet.

Since, there is no negative marking, you should try attempting all the questions. This will help you to score high in your class 12th Maths Exam paper. Moreover, each equation or formula carries some marks, writing the correct steps will earn you some marks, hence try your best to solve them even if you are unable to provide the correct answers. Writing the correct steps will earn you some marks. So, do not leave any question unanswered or you may lose marks unreasonably.
