Shun rote learning, set your own expectations, study as per Board exam timings, eat healthy and get enough sleep. I will solve one sample test paper every day, carefully analyse my mistakes and eventually get rid of all conceptual and silly errors. I will not ignore my NCERT text books and will read the thoroughly I will practise all the problems by putting pen to paper and not just follow rote learning I will not be affected by the performance of my friends in the pre-Board exams. I will set my own expectations and would try to exceed them. After a good performance in pre-Board exams, I shall not get complacent I will make flash cards carrying all the important formulae and concepts and I will carry them with me wherever I go I will follow a healthy diet and will not eat heavy food that makes one sleepy I will set my body clock according to the Board exam schedule by solving the sample test paper in the same hours during which the actual exams are held. This will keep my mind alert in those hours of the day I will sleep early, wake up early and go for a morning walk every day. This will help me start each day with a fresh mind I will make a to-do list that will help me prepare for the exams in a systematic manner. This will include making a realistic but challenging timeline and prioritising half-prepared chapters before starting on others I will clear my doubts by going to school on any given day and meeting the concerned teachers.
