How to prepare for the class 10 and what you should have to read for examination

*~HOW TO PREPARE FOR CLASS 10TH BOARDS?*

Here are some simple trips to improve your performance -
• Try to study at a quiet place,away from every distraction.
• Solve *sample papers* as many as possible (I prefer *Arihant publications* for sample papers) .
• Most important is to *make brief notes* by yourself ,this will help you in revision at the end time.
• For any topic or subject , *don't think that I'll do it in the end* cuz in the end definitely you'll not get time and you will be facing problems.
• Find out about your strength and weakness and *work hard on your weak points*.
• Maintain a constant speed of writing by doing *written practice* , it will help you in better time management during exam.

*~HOW TO MANAGE YOUR TIME?*
Make a Time-Table
Planning is most important . Prepare a time table and give enough time for each subject. Set the time according to your daily schedule. *Don't study for too long hours.* include short breaks between study hours. Also give some time for playing and doing things which make you feel relax.

*~BY WHAT TIME SHOULD YOUR SYLLABUS BE COMPLETED?*
Try to finish the whole things till the *end of December*, so that you will be well prepared for your pre-boards .Practice more in February ,solve as many *previous year papers* as possible .
And if you are unable to cover your syllabus till December then too don't pressurize yourself , cuz March is the deadline and yeah do remember

*Consistency is the key*.

*Don't leave NCERT questions* They will definitely be your performance booster.

*~WHICH BOOKS YOU SHOULD CHOOSE?*
The most important books for 10th is NCERT and there will be hardly any question asked in paper beyond these books and also NCERT books are designed according to CBSE syllabus and paper pattern .
If you have enough time ,you can give these books a try -

• *MATHS*- R.D.Sharma , R.S. Aggarwal
• *PHYSICS*- H.C.Verma , Srijan
• *CHEMISTRY* -Cordova,Lakhmir Singh -Manjeet Kaur
• *BIOLOGY*- Cordova,Lakhmir Singh-Manjit Kaur

For other subjects, you can use *All in one* as a tool for revision.
They will provide you a better way of exam pattern.
