To qualify the CBSE 12th exams 2024 with flying colours, students should be aware of how what and when to prepare for the board exam. Read the CBSE 12th preparation tips below to make the preparation easier-

  • Know the syllabus and start early: Before starting CBSE Class 12th preparation, candidates should first check the syllabus prescribed by the board for both theory and practical. This helps in knowing the most important topics to cover for CBSE C lass 12 board exams .
  • Solve as many question papers as possible: CBSE provides previous year question papers and model papers officially. Students can download the same from the official site of CBSE in the curriculum section and solve maximum numbers of question papers to get an understanding of the types of questions asked in the CBSE 12th exams 2024.
  • Eat healthily: This is a very important point. Yes, you have your 12th CBSE exams knocking at your door. But that does not mean that you can stop eating and keep mugging from your textbooks. Take time to relax. Have your meals on time and more importantly don't skip any of them.
  • Exercise: Do not just sit on your study desk and read all the time. Take time to move around. Learn some basic exercises, especially, those that involve breathing and moving your arms.
  • Sleep well: Along with eating and exercising, it is very important that you don't lose your sleep over your 12th CBSE exam. Many students sleep late when they are preparing.

i couldnt clear 1st compartment (which held in August 2022) cbse class 12th so can I give improvement in all subjects which to be held on March 2023. tell me a solution i need more than 75% in class 12th

Upasana Barman 24th Aug, 2022

hello,

Yes you can appear for the compartment paper again since CBSE gives three chances to a candidate to clear his/her exams so you still have two more attempts. However, you can appear for your improvement paper for all subjects but you cannot appear for the ones in which you have failed.

I hope this was helpful!

Good Luck

i was not able to clear 1st compartment and now I have to give 2nd compartment so can I give improvement exam next year? plz tell me very much tensed(cbse class 12th)

Mayankjha.student2007 24th Aug, 2022

Hello dear,

If you was not able to clear 1st compartment and now you giving second compartment so YES, you can go for your improvement exam next year but if a student receives an improvement, they are given the opportunity to retake the boards as a private candidate the following year, but there are some requirements. First, the student must pass all of their subjects; if they received a compartment in any subject, they must then pass the compartment exam before being eligible for the improvement.


As you can registered yourself as private candidate for giving your improvement exam of 12 standard CBSE(Central Board of Secondary Education).For that you have to wait for a whole year which is bit difficult for you.


Positive side of waiting for whole year is you have a whole year to preparing yourself for your examination. You have no distraction or something which may causes your failure in the exams. In whole year you have to stay focused on your 12 standard examination for doing well in it. By this you get a highest marks as a comparison of others.


Believe in Yourself! You can make anything happen


All the very best.

if i am giving improvement in one subject this year, will i be able to give improvement in more subjects next year?

Nuthalapati Vyshnavi 21st Aug, 2022

Hello Student,

I appreciate your Interest in education. See the improvement is not restricted to one subject or multiple subjects  and  we cannot say if improvement in one subject in one year leads to improvement in more subjects in coming year.

You just need to have a revision of all subjects what you have completed in the school. have a revision and practice of subjects and concepts helps you better.

All the best.
