TIME MANAGEMENT- for Class XII Board Examinees

Dear buddies,

During exam, it's very important how you manage your time, i.e. the given 3:00 hours to complete your paper of 100 marks.

Here are some TIPS

Reach the School premises 15/20 minutes before 10.00 AM (i.e. around 9.30 AM) as it is your first day of exam. You will be allowed to enter the Exam Hall at 10.00 AM. 

Your Exam timing is 10.30 hrs. to 01.30 hrs. You will get your question paper at 10.15 Hrs. as 15 minutes time is given to you as Reading Time.

So total time you get is 180 minutes+15 minutes = 195 minutes.

As soon as you get the paper, look at the question paper quickly and start reading any one of the Reading Passages from Section-A. For example, you start Q.No. 1. If you finish reading the passage within the 15 minutes reading time, you can start writing your answers on that passage sharp at 10:30 A.M. Try to stick to the following Break up if possible.

Section - A

Q.N. 1.  RT 15+WT 25= 40 minutes  (10.15 to 10.55 )

Q.N. 2.  Read 10+Write 15=25 min. (10.55 to 11.20 )

If  You choose to attempt Section C before B Section, then

Section - C

Q.N. 7.  Extract from Poetry  (1x4=4 marks)  = 10 min.   (11.20 to 11.30 )

Q.N. 8.  SQ from TEXT   (3x4=12 marks) = 15 min. ( 11.30 to 11.45)

Q.N. 9. LQ from Text     (1x6=6 marks) = 10 min. (11.45 to 11.55)

Q.N. 10. LQ from TEXT (1x6=6 marks) = 10 min.  (11.55 to 12.05)

Q.N. 11 & Q.N. 12. LQ from NOVEL (2x6= 12 marks) = 20 min. ( 12.05 to 12.25 )

Section - B

Q.N. 3. Notice/Poster etc. = 4 marks = 8 min. ( 12.25 to 12.43 )

Q.N. 4. Letter etc. = 6 marks = 10 min. ( 12.43 to 12.53 )

Q.N. 5. Article etc. = 10 marks = 10/12 min. (12.53 to 1.10)

Q.N. 6. Debate/Speech etc. = 10 marks=  LAST 10/12 min. (1.10 to 1.25)

REVISE quickly any left out words etc. 1.25 to 1.30 p.m. Its very important to revise all the answers you have written.

Why have I chosen to attempt Section - B at the last ? 

Because, your writing speed will become the FASTEST in the last hour of your exam. So you can finish the last two questions of 10 +10 marks in 10+10 minutes. If the last question becomes little bit short also, you can finish it by writing - Speech By/Debate by and submit at the last moment. i.e. 1.30 p.m. sharp.
