2. TIPS: HOWTOSCOREGOODMARKS
Regarding scoring of good marks in Board Exams, it is not so
difficult. You have to stick to few important tips:
1. Firstly, study regularly, take out time for at least three subjects in
a day. Work more on those subjects, in which you feel you are
weaker than other subjects.
2. Do not leave anysubjectfor more than 2-3 days. Every subject
should be taken up for study at least in every alternate day. The
important and difficult ones may be taken up everyday.
3. Devote at least 6-7 hours for self study.
But do not cut down too much on your sleep and enjoyment. Take
out a bit of time for relaxing and entertaining also.

4. Whenever you study, don't sit for too long continuously, you can
also take one or two short breaks of 5-10 minutes during a
continuous stretch of 3-4 hrs. of study.
This will help in maintaining your interest.
5. Be in touch with the TBSE previous years papers, sample papers
etc. Keep on looking what has been the pattern ofTBSE and what
type of questions are generally asked. Also refer to their model
answers in tbse.inwebsite.
6. Whenever you give a test in school and obtain marks, just go
through your answer sheet seriously and see where marks have
been deducted and how can the errors be avoided next time.
