PHYSICS & MATHS:- Getting good marks in CBSE 12 th Board.

, , , , ,

AUTHOR-J.P.Sinha.Teacher (Physics and Maths) for IIT-JEE/PMT

12th board exam is the most important stage in the academic life of any student in India. Good score in this exam in many cases ensures admission in good course or college. There is an element of prestige attached to it too : any student getting 90%+ marks in 12 th board automatically becomes the darling of his/her entire family - all of a sudden people start speaking good and respectful words for him.

According to the proposed new Government Policy regarding the admissions in various Engineering Colleges in India, including IITs, marks earned by a student in his/her 12th board exams are soon going to become very important for his/her admission in Engineering Courses in India. According to the news paper reports, board marks will be given very important weightage in deciding the eligibility of a student in the Engineering Admission Process. A student scoring low marks in board exam will be not eligible for IITs even if he/she performs well in the entrance test.

So my message to all is: DON'T IGNORE THE BOARD EXAMS NOW

My experience as a teacher says that getting very high marks in board exams in India (at-least in CBSE board exam!) is honestly not very tough these days.

Following are few of the general advices that I would like to give to any one desirous of getting good marks in Physics and Maths in CBSE board exams:

Give utmost importance to your NCERT books. In maths exam, usually nothings comes from outside NCERT book. So for your board exam preparation do not consult any reference book. Just solve all the SOLVED and EXERCISE problems of NCERT again and again for practice.Remember that you do not have to leave any thing inside the NCERT maths book. Solve every single problem - both solved examples and exercise problems - present inside NCERT books. Solve all the Miscellaneous solved and unsolved questions too. Solve the Sample Papers available on CBSE website. If you gain the capability of solving any problem contained in the NCERT book without any trouble then I assure you that you can even get 100 marks in Maths.

For Physics, again NCERT book is very important. *Read all concepts of every chapter in full detail from NCERT.*Make a list of all the DERIVATIONS in each chapter.*Write the proofs of these DERIVATIONS in your note book. While writting the proofs follow the style in which you normally answer a question in exam. *Make a comprehensive list of all the important formulae of the syllabus. Revise them regularly.*Do all the NUMERICAL type questions present in NCERT physics book (both solved and unsolved ! ).*Make a list of important graphs present in your text book. *You must know all the Definitions and S.I. units of all the physical quantities dealt in the syllabus. *If possible, practice 'previous year questions' from each chapter from the book "Together with Physics" or "U-Like Sample Paper in Physics". *Solve the Sample Paper available on CBSE website.*Do the revision of all the above works again and again. You will then be able to solve the entire PHYSICS paper without any problem and getting 65+ (out of 70) score will not be difficult for you in Physics.

If you do all the above and join a test series for continuously evaluating your preparedness then I am sure no one can stop you from getting very high marks in the board exams. Doing regular tests is a must. It sharpens your problem solving skills. So ask your teachers to take frequent tests.

If your teachers are not taking tests on daily basis then for your benefits I have developed a very high quality Test Series in Physics and Maths. Its cost is very low so anybody can join it. For taking my test series in Physics and Maths click here

you are unable to learn the physics derivations because, I think, you do not understand them.
Practice them again and again. Also read the theory thoroughly to develop understanding.
All thd best.

SHIVAM SINGH writes: Sir, I am feeling very stressed as my cbse class 12 board's exam is going to start from March 1st and i haven't still started for it. I regret for wasting the two most important years of my life. And now i am ready and set to do as much i can in the very last and remaining parts of these two years. My current status - I have got some OK level JEE concepts which are not nourished that properly as much as they should be. Concepts of chemistry are OK and the gap before the chem. exam has made life somewhat easier. Maths - Calculus is OK ALGEBRA (hvn't still studies) PHY - OK (only & only w.r.t JEE) My EXAM SCHEDULE - 1 March - ENG (hvn't still started) 5 March - PHY 13 - CHEM 24 - MATHS 10th April - Fine Arts Sir,please please please reply how should i do and manage time and please mention the shortest and most effective + efficient path that i must follow? Sir,"YOU ARE THE LAST HOPE"

SHIVAM SINGH writes: @Pooja-Don't do the sample papers,it won't be very beneficial.Instead do last 5 year papers and if time permits extend it to last 10 yrs.And learn concepts from them by analyzing them properly.

To ALL,
read the above article by going to the top of this page.
Practicing past years' board papers will be beneficial. But mastering the basic theory, derivations,... etc is a must to get good marks.
Concentrate on your studies instead of wasting your time in browsing the internet.

SHIVAM SINGH writes: yes it is more than enough if you cover concepts from them. for eg suppose u hv gt qus in optics about telescopes or microscope then read the ques try to solve it if you cnt then pick ncert n study it from there n then solve it & then look for another ques in that very topic & if u again find difficulty then read it again from ncert & then solve.Also try to peep in paper setters mind n study topics according to that mindset.Tht my sugg. And i.e what i m going to do. I just want to know from sir,that if i follow this method with good intensity then wht min. Marks will i score in phy? Also is it the right path to follow when time left is very very less? i just want to check my path!

Reply from J.P.Sinha:

I wonder why everybody keep asking the same question again and again. I have already explained in detail the ideal methods of preparing for the board exam in my article above. But again you ask the same thing that I have already answered in my article. Read the article. And please, all the board appearing students, for your own benefits concentrate more on your studies. Do not waste your precious time in anything. There is no magic formula of success. Success comes only with sincere and sustained hard work.

I have an idea of doing 4000 problems. Please reply sir.

Per day in the gap before maths which sounds next to impossible.
