Scoring above 95% in Class 10 isn't just about being a topper—it's about following the right strategies. Whether you're preparing for CBSE, ICSE, or any state board, here’s a practical, honest, and highly effective guide to help you ace your exams.

      ✅ Note: This guide is based on real strategies used by 90+% scorers, not theory.
    

1. Know the Syllabus Thoroughly

Before you start any chapter, read the syllabus line-by-line. Understand what topics are included, what has been removed, and what holds higher weightage. Smart students first analyze which units carry more marks.

2. Study NCERT Word by Word

For CBSE, NCERT textbooks are absolutely sufficient. Solve all in-text and back questions. Highlight keywords. For Science, do not skip reading explanations of diagrams.

3. Focus on Written Practice

Reading is not enough. Write answers, formulas, and definitions at least 3–4 times. Writing helps in better memory retention and improves answer presentation.

4. Previous Year Questions = Goldmine

Analyse past 5–10 year papers to know what kind of questions are repeated. Make a "hot question" notebook and practice them weekly. Solve sample papers in exam conditions.

5. Make a Realistic Study Plan

Wake up 1 hour early for revision
Target 2 chapters daily (1 strong + 1 weak)
After dinner, revise what you studied that day

6. Be Consistent, Not Perfect

Even if you study just 2–3 hours seriously every day, you will outperform most students who cram irregularly. Consistency is your biggest weapon.

7. Mock Tests Every Sunday

Practice a full-length paper (especially Maths and Science) with proper time limits. Get it checked by a teacher or parent. Learn from your mistakes.

8. Avoid These Mistakes

Skipping NCERT questions
Leaving diagrams and maps unpracticed
Only watching videos, not writing
Procrastinating on weak subjects
