Study Strategy to Boost Marks in the Examination

Students aiming for good marks in the 2025 CBSE can follow these tips:

  • After the entire year directing the student to go through exercises, examples and practice papers, the all important timing should be strictly saved for practice for the last 20 days.

  • In general, you should start by answering the questions that provide the most points for example the 6-mark questions so as to increase your confidence.

  • As for the difficult and complex questions, it is high time to draw up a strategy to deal with them during the test and do not be nervous.

  • The key is to ensure that you go through all the important formulas, theorems, and other aspects in a bid to revise before the examination.

  • If one is really thorough with NCERT and if students have studied all the portions , they don’t require the additional books.

  • Lastly relax your mind by taking breaks so that your brain can also have adequate rest and also remain sharp to perform well on the task at hand.

Key Advantages of the IB Chemistry Course

  • Understanding Concepts: To build a sound concept of the basic chemical facts, properties of atoms, chemical bonds, chemical reactions and their rates, balanced chemical equations and stoichiometry, etc.

  • Application of Knowledge: To interact with case studies and understand the relevance of chemistry in society, industry, and the environment.

  • Research Skills: In order to maintain, develop, and enhance students’ research and lab knowledge and skills, pay attention to the scientific approach, data analysis, and safety rules.

  • Critical Thinking: To improve the critical thinking and problem-solving skills that help the students interpret and analyze the scientific information.

  • Global Perspective: It is only worth while if in every lecture we stress the chemical aspects of an international nature and lower effects on the environment, social concerns, and ethics.

Preparation Tips For Students

  • Review and understand subject-wise syllabus and exam pattern

  • Separate the easy and challenging chapters and begin with the easier ones.

  • Distribute the topics equally as per priority and start preparation.
    Make weekly schedules for all major subjects or whatever seems difficult to you.

  • Identify your weak areas and take the requisite measures to overcome them.

  • Practice the previous year’s question papers.
