One and a half months left – now what?
One and a half months left – and then?? THE BOARD EXAMS..!!
Don’t those two words send a shiver down your spine? Well, I kinda feel tingly when I think about them.
Since its 1 + 1/2 months left, I think that we should try and be absolutely thorough with our subjects. In this half month that is. So that we can dedicate that ONE month for revision and question-paper solving.
Also, Board Practical is coming up. So, the time-table of our day should be such that we don’t cram everything up in our brain just one day before but read something of it everyday so that we are fully prepared. O yea, making time-tables.
Do you remember the no. of times we’ve failed to stick to our timetables?? Possibly 90% of the times. So then what is to be done? It’s simple! Make a realistic timetable. Chalk out your plan in such a way that you think you CAN do it easily. For example, if you cannot study in the afternoon, sleep in that time. Stay up late that day and finish up. Calculate the amount of sleep you require and the duration of study-breaks you will take. Make a specific plan. By specific, I mean, against the time slot write down the subject you shall dedicate that period to. In this way, preparation will not be in a haphazard manner but planned and structured. Sounds a lot of work, but believe me, I tried it and it worked for me!! It also helps to keep you stress-free to a certain extent.
You could also make a checklist for the next day and keep crossing out the tasks you’ve completed. THAT gives you the itchy feeling to cross out more tasks which in turn automatically gets you working and bingo!! Haven’t you stuck to your schedule? And don’t be disheartened if you miss out on a few tasks for the day. If you could successfully do 7/10 of the tasks – congratulations!! That’s really really nice!! But if you score 3/10 at the end of the day – go pull your socks up and work harder.
Well, these are my tips to you. Please don’t think I picked them up from some self-help book. If I must recommend you the self-help book way, it’ll be very hard on you now. I have tried these techniques myself and they have done wonders for me. It really did help. So, take some useful pointers from this post and start working!!
Wishing you all the best!!
