Preparation Tips for CBSE Class 11 Physics Paper
The Physics subject syllabus is very vast. Even if the syllabus for this year is reduced, other situations due to COVID-19 have raised learning challenges. You must focus on learning the syllabus that is coming in the exam well. (If you haven’t checked the deleted Physics syllabus yet, then read the deleted topics from the syllabus here.)
Here are some of the best exam preparation tips that you should follow when preparing for the Physics exam preparation.
- First, understand the paper pattern of Physics paper. It is divided into two parts: theory (70 marks) and practical (30 marks). You must refer to the marking scheme and syllabus, both theory and practical, along with the CBSE guidelines.
- Then you should prepare a study time table. Strategically distribute the topics on the level of your knowledge and aptitude. Keep enough time for revisions.
- Make notes during your studies so that you can make quick revisions later. Mark important questions which you can go through again later.
- After your preparations are done, solve CBSE sample papers. Sit down to give it like an actual test. Mark yourself fairly—highlight areas where you are good, where your performance was not up-to-the-mark. You will know which topic needs your attention, where you need only to do regular revisions.
- With every sample paper that you solve, try to improve everything- your way of writing answers, writing speed, and concentration level. The written paper is of 3 hours duration, so you need to plan some techniques to solve your paper.
- There are some general instructions given on the question paper, so read them carefully and follow them.
- If possible, go through the answer sheets of previous year toppers from your school or another school.
As you know, the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the challenges in learning, so the CBSE exams for 2020-21 are speculated to be easy. However, you should not lack in your preparation. Understand lessons, practice important questions. Don’t forget to solve sample papers for complete exam preparation.
We wish you good luck with the Class 11 Exams.
