Daily Current Affairs
15 minutes every morning on a newspaper or current affairs app. Consistency over 6 months beats last-minute cramming.
⚡
Speed Drills
Memorise tables up to 20, squares up to 30, cube roots up to 15. These save 5–10 seconds per question — decisive in a 60-minute exam.
✏️
Sketch Logical Problems
Always draw seating and blood-relation problems. Never hold all variables in your head — a quick diagram prevents errors.
📖
NCERT First for Science
Classes 8, 9 and 10 NCERT Science covers the entire Science section. No extra reference book needed.
🔁
Revise in Cycles
Complete one module, then rotate weekly. Spaced revision across all 5 is more effective than finishing one fully before starting another.
📝
Attempt Mock Tests
2 full-length mocks per week in the final 2 months. Time pressure is your real opponent — get comfortable with it early.
