Studying paper will help you know the questions you know and can solve them first.

  1. Donโ€™t use jargons โ€“ Always write answer in clear language. You can use good vocabulary to explain answers but, donโ€™t try to use hefty words or jargons to impress examiner. Write answer in clear and easy language, examiner has a very little time to invest in your copy.
  2. Do not use short form in answers โ€“ Never write short form in answers. Students usually tend to use short form while practicing answer writing and carry forward that mistake in main exam. Always write answers in complete words and clear handwriting. The more you make it easy for examiner to read your copy, the more marks you will earn for your efforts.
  3. Try to avoid cutting or over writing โ€“ In exam, a student donโ€™t have time to write answer in a beautiful well designed manner. But, they can try to avoid cutting and over writing in answers. Before writing answer give few seconds to frame an answer and then start writing. This will help you avoid cutting and over writing in answers.
  4. Write as per the marks โ€“ Write answer as per the marks a question contains. One line is enough for a 1 mark question but, for a 5 mark question a student need to draw a well labelled diagram, or a table to score full marks.
  5. Attempt all the questions โ€“ One important tip to score more in CBSE exam is to attempt all the questions. There is no negative marking so you can at least try to attempt the question you donโ€™t know. Write answers in related manner or you can even draw a related diagram for the answer. But, the answer need to be somehow related with the question asked. Write something for very question you donโ€™t know.
  6. Recheck the answer sheet โ€“ After completing the exam paper, always recheck the answer sheet. Rechecking will make you know what you have written and help you find out errors you have done. By rechecking you can correct those errors and avoid losing marks. Check whether you have attempted the entire question you know.
