How can you make your own Topper Time Table for CBSE Term 2 Class 10?

Begin before you snooze

As soon as the new academic year begins, start making your timetable from the first day. The habit of following a timetable takes time to settle and is a habit worth cultivating.

Don’t fall into the thinking that you have a lot of time so you can start preparing when the exams will be near. To top the CBSE Term 2 Class 10 exam preparation should be a daily affair not a once or twice year thing.

Plan and play

The first thing you will need to start your preparation for CBSE Term 2 Class 10 is a well-thought plan. That allows proportional time for all your activities like studying, practising, rest and even playing.

Your timetable should not make you feel exhausted from time to time but should gradually increase your workload to build your stamina for the exam.

Your timetable should acknowledge that each subject requires a different approach and duration of time. Making a mould that fits all is a bad strategy going forward in life and learning.

Paint it red

Now that you have started with the process of drafting a toppers timetable for CBSE Term 2 Class 10 allot different colours to different subjects, practice time, rest time and playtime. Instead of writing names, colours will help you visualise and remember your timetable within a few days of your beginning.

Divide and conquer your targets

CBSE Term 2 syllabus is too long to complete in a sitting even revision of it will take at least a couple of days. Divide the chapters in your topper timetable and target a chapter of all subjects in a week to achieve.

Be realistic while dividing one often thinks that they can cover more but fails. It’s always better to be aimless and achieve more than to sleep on the feeling of not achieving your daily target.

Know your ground i.e the syllabus and pattern of exam

Before you start out charting the timetable read carefully all about the CBSE Term 2 Class 10 exam pattern and syllabus.

Since the questions CBSE Term 2 Class 10 will come from 50 per cent of the rationalised syllabus, make a list of chapters and the most important topics for each subject.

In your toppers time table make sure you give enough time and attention to these topics. Be simple and specific while allotting the time for these subjects. Do not complicate your timetable.

Time out powered by Energy

You aim to study, study hard but also take short frequent breaks between your sittings to re-energize, refresh and refocus.

Taking 10-20 minutes of break every couple of hours to eat or even taking a power nap will keep your energies constant throughout the day. Without proper rest and nutrition, you cannot achieve the top spot in CBSE Term 2 Class 10.

Matchups and Catch ups

It is unrealistic to think that you can pull off 6 hours of mathematics study sessions continuously. And honestly, it’s a little naïve too. Be smart and study a combination of subjects in small study sessions.

Like give two hours to mathematics and then read English after that jump to science or social studies.

The matchups you will plan should be based on the fact that every subject requires a different skill to learn for example while mathematics requires numerical skills science and social science require analytical skills whereas English and Hind work with comprehension skills.

Be ready to adapt and Change

If your CBSE Term 2 Class 10 toppers timetable doesn’t feel right after a week or two then change it. Nothing is fixed or like the writing on the wall, do changes or improve whenever you feel the need.

Follow it
