Academics: How should we prepare for exams...?


© Harish Jharia

Preparing for exams is the prime necessity in academics. Nevertheless, you cannot reap optimum results, if you do not follow a systematic drill during attempting your exam.

Here are some tips… and if you have any thing additional to add, please feel free to post in your answer… that would be helpful for all of the people / pupil who attempt any exams.
  1. Do not get scared of exams… because it is a part of your life… and be cool and patient…
  2. Expectations of parents are their natural instincts… keep in constant contact with them… and ensure them that you are making the maximum possible efforts to score the highest possible percentage of marks… this communication is essential…
  3. Usually the marks that you get in pre-final are a bit less than that you are worth for… hence, just forget the past and prepare in the way you have been doing until now…
  4. You should have two revisions before your exams…
  5. Before going to exams you will feel as if everything in your mind has washed away and you do not remember any thing… This is normal, as there is a lot of diverse stuff shuttling in your mind…
  6. A particular point will only respond when you strike the cord… and the things will be fine… So, just do not care for this particular “I forgot all syndromes” it is just nothing…
  7. Before attempting to answer, the questions… do read the entire question paper carefully… with an aim to locate which questions are easier and which are the difficult ones…
  8. Attempt the easiest questions first…
  9. Attempt the less easy ones at the second stage…
  10. Attempt the hardest at the end…
  11. Be careful that you write the correct question No and answer No on the answer sheet…
  12. Have a patient revision of the answer paper… if you are left with some time…
  13. If you finish your paper, a bit earlier… do not leave the seat… keep revising your answers and leave the exam hall only when the time ends…
