Tips & tricks

  • Plan Your Studies Well: Plan your study before it’s too late. When you study a topic, make sure you practice those questions that match your requirement in terms of examination.

  • Gain Your Speed: Practice solving last 10 years question papers to gain speed and accuracy for the upcoming examination.

  • Refer Your Books: Most questions in the ICSE board are based directly on your books. So, refer your books carefully.

  • Work On Those Abs and Muscles: Remember your mental state depends on your physical fitness. So, running in the morning or taking 30-minute break to play badminton in the evening is not a bad idea to burst out your mental stress.
