New Delhi: The wait for CBSE board exams 2025 is almost over. CBSE exams for classes 10 and 12 are set to begin on February 14, and we will soon see classrooms filled with whispers and racing hearts in a few weeks.
With just 50 days left for the CBSE board exams 2025, it is a very tough time. Students must put their best foot forward while creating a disciplined study timetable. A good CBSE self-study timetable will guide you through focused and effective study sessions and instil confidence. Here is the best way to create a comprehensive study timetable for the upcoming CBSE 10th and 12th board exams 2024-25.
Know your syllabus
The most difficult part of exam preparation is knowing the boundaries. It is a good idea to start your preparation by reviewing the syllabus for each subject. Try to identify the topics or chapters that are more important for the exam. Also, pay attention to the topics that you are comfortable with. This assessment will help you by focusing on each subject but also give you more preparation time for the weighted topics.
Always important FIRST
As discussed, more attention should be paid to important and tough topics. While making a study timetable, distribute study hours to important and complex subjects.
Be practical
Students should set achievable goals rather than unrealistic ones. With less than two months left for the exams, aim to create a timetable by breaking down concepts instead of completing an entire chapter in a day.
Plan breaks
While creating a study timetable, students should also consider their daily routine and break times. In addition to allocating specific time slots for studying, also allocate breaks to prevent burnout. Taking breaks also helps maintain focus.
Be flexible
Although it is necessary to stick to the study timetable, be flexible. You should plan ‘slack time’ that will help in achieving your goals during unexpected difficulties. If you miss the schedule, always be ready to revise for better efficiency.
Introspection is required
Always assess your progress regularly. Try to identify the topics or chapters that you have mastered along with giving a remark on how well you understood. This practice will not only build your confidence but also allow you to revise.
Stay healthy
A healthy mind always depends on a healthy body. Students should allocate equal time for sleep, physical activity and a balanced diet. Keep stress at bay by doing some exercises. Yoga and Surya Namaskar can also be considered to increase concentration.
