Use the 80/20 Rule: Focus 80% of your effort on 20% of topics that matter most for marks

Make a Realistic Study Plan: Divide your day into 3 focused blocks (Include daily goals + weekly mock tests)

Stick to NCERT First: Master NCERT textbooks (Use reference books only for deeper understanding)

Active Recall + Spaced Revision: Quiz yourself, don’t just reread (Review topics after 1 day, 3 days, 1 week…)

Practice Previous Year Papers: Solve past 5–10 years' papers (Simulate real exam conditions)

Make Smart Notes: Use flowcharts, mind maps & one-pagers for fast revision

Study in Short Cycles: Use Pomodoro (50 mins study + 10 mins break) => Boost focus and avoid burnout

Eliminate Distractions: Keep your phone away (Use focus apps to stay on track)

Stay Positive & Consistent: Do light meditation (Sleep 7–8 hours for better memory and focus)
