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

try to understand the theory of physics well.Watch how solved examples are solved in your book.Then try solving the unsolved questions on your own.

Richa,
in maths you do not need any reference book for cbse board exam. For physics, use Together With Physics and solve Previous Year's Questions in each chapter. Read the above article again.

Anik,
you should solve questions of any chapter in H.C.Verma just after finishing the theory of that chapter from NCERT.

Akhil,
please contact the CBSE office directly to get answer to your questions.

see, these chapters are not difficult. But you need some one to teach them to you. So you please contact some good teacher of maths.Take personal tuition from him. Soon these chapters will appear easy to you.

Reply from J.P.Sinha:

Vaibhav,
do not do all questions of H.C.Verma. Do only around 50% of its questions for practice. But solve NCERT entirely. These days question types in the IIT-JEE are very different from those given in H.C.Verma. So there is no point in solving each and every question of H.C.Verma. yes, you must read the solved examples given in H.C.Verma to understand that how you can attempt to solve numericals in physics.

Anik
K.C.Sinha's book on calculus is the best reference book for IIT-JEE preparation
But start with NCERT book first. Then solve questions from other books.Objective Approach to Maths-Arihant Prakashan is also good.
Don't solve all the questions of K.C.Sinha. Because nobody can finish K.C.Sinha in 2 years. Use it as a reference book only. Refer to that book for solving few questions and read extra theory and for reading its solved examples.

reply from J.P.Sinha:

in maths after NCERT you should use Objective Approach to Maths-Arihant. Read the theory and solved examples of any chapter before attempting to solve questions.
For physics, read solved examples of H.C.Verma. Then solve questions from New Pattern IIT Physics-Arihant.

you should try to directly contact the CBSE office for this.
You can also do 12th with science subjects from National Open School.
