How you can be a chap in Exams and score highest in your class 10? You need to make your learning smart.
The process of learning is ever-evolving.
And so do the study hacks to make your learning easier for your ICSE Class 10 Board Exams.
What are these hacks?
Let’s dive right in.
- CAN’T WAKE UP EARLY, WAKE UP NEAR TO EARLY!
One of the greatest hindrances you will find in your way of class 10 preparations is not waking up on time.
Alarm starts!! Alarm snoozes!! And this cycle goes on.
Problem is not you, and it’s not just you.
Now, don’t push yourself too much.
If you usually wake up at 8, then for a week start waking up at 7, then start pushing it down further until you reach 5 AM in the morning and stop there.
This works like a miracle for class 10 students.
- START WITH THE TOUGH!
It’s an expert advice to the ICSE students, starting with the most difficult topic or concept in the day will make you feel more accomplished.
Suppose you don't like Maths, and Physics is your strong subject. For the entire day, you will think about Maths, and this will even hinder your Physics preparations.
So, always make it a habit to go for the difficult task in the first place. It will help to complete the preparations effortlessly.
- KILL THE DISTRACTIONS
When you have reached class 10 then they are plenty of distraction around you. And you have only limited time in your daily routine. Hence, it’s your responsibility to use your time wisely.
Make a list of all your distractions. And it’s natural that you can’t let go of every one of them easily like, mobile, video games or others, but you can start cutting them out one by one.
Start by avoiding one for a week, then avoid two for next week, and so on.
This will make your mind crystal clear, and you will study more effectively for ICSE Class 10 Board Exams.
- STOP BEING MONOTONOUS!
Do you enjoy doing the same thing repeatedly?
Doesn’t it make your life monotonous?
If you always study by sitting at the same place, change it and start studying while walking.
If you always study more in the evening, start doing your prime preparations in the morning.
To increase your productivity while studying, make it a habit to keep on changing between your space and time. This will make you feel less distracted, and you will even save a great amount of time from it.
