Study Tips for students
Know ‘sweet sections’ of the
syllabus
This is the killer tactic that’ll help you score more marks in
exams with less effort! Sweet section means portions of a subject that carry
more marks. One may find such sweet sections by referring previous years’
question papers.
Analyze each subject using this way and arrive upon the
sweet sections. Make sure that you prepare them well at any cost. Prepare them
in such a way that you’ll be able to solve those problems/answer those
questions even after waking up from deep sleep!
Usually, most papers have a collection of questions that
are usually derived from these ‘sweet sections’. So, preparing them well will
help you get like 40% marks right away.
Know ‘regular questions’ and
prepare accordingly
Just like sweet section, most papers also have the ‘usual
suspects’, which are some questions that are asked almost each time! Go through
previous years’ question papers and find such questions that are notorious for
being asked repeatedly in each semester’s paper.
Hangout
with the studious folks
Hanging out with the studious friends has benefits of its own!
They have plenty of useful resources like- notes, personal study materials,
information about questions likely to be asked etc, which you may want to have
access to!
You may have access to those resources too, if you manage to get
into their friend group! Also, it is nice to be around such folks for they also
may help you clear your doubts and even teach you!
Also, by teaching them, I used to get more and more revision.
Because, teaching others was like going through the stuff I had learned again
and again- revision that is!
