TIPS for Class XII students-Section A


Hello everyone,
Hope you all are working hard for the Board Exam scheduled from 2nd March'19.
The first paper you are writing is ENGLISH CORE (301)
Here are some simple tips for you:

  • Start revising/reading for the first exam at least 4 days before the exam date. i.e. 26 Feb-1 March. 
  • Remember you have to do well in the first exam to give yourself positive feedback for the ramaining papers.
  • Start revising all the sections, one by one.
  • Section A has only 02 questions: Q. No. 1=20 marks (reading Comprehension passage) & Q. No. 2=10 marks (Note Making)
  • For Section A, Read some comprehension passages and try answering the questions. Write the answers on a paper/note book.
  • To find the similar word from the passage, focus on the paragraph, if given within bracket, read it two or three times, you will find the word. It is not the same word you are searching. Its similar/alike in meaning. That's not so difficult after all. You can find the word from the context. 
  • For Note making, read another passage and practise making notes for the given passage. Dont forget to add a title and make some abbreviations as well. It will give you two (1+1=2) extra marks certainly. 
  • Practise writing the summary from the notes and not from the passage. Try to limit yourself within 100-110 words i.e maximum 10-12 lines. 
  • Remember, if you can score high in the Reading section, your Total score will be very good as you have covered 30% of the question paper already. But don't waste lot of time.
  • Try to complete all the questions under this section within 60-70 minutes. (30 marks)
