GENERAL TIPS FOR PHYSICS (For Class XII)

Physics is not a literature subject. However, we study the concepts in literary format. But as far as physics is concerned, simply memorizing the notes will do no good. There are units, diagrams, formulas, numericals, concepts, mathematical forms that make this subject quite different from all other subjects.

Don’t panic; just be calm because when you have a will to score high, we are here to show you the way to do it.

Let’s start with the unit-wise distribution of marks as given by the CBSE board.

Unit-wise distribution of marks:

Following are some important points a student must follow to make good use of his knowledge on the subject and score a respectable score.

1. Make a chapter-wise list of all the concepts and the laws you have learned throughout the year.
2. Make a chapter-wise list of all the important SI units, formulae and constants you have learned throughout the year.
3. Always go for mathematical expressions and technical terms while answering the questions.
4. Wherever possible give labelled diagrams to reduce the number of words in your answers.
5. Whenever you draw a circuit, be careful with the direction of current and polarity of cells.
6. Follow standard books for derivations. Do not try to invent new ways for any derivation in the examination hall.
7. Always give step-wise solution to numericals because marks are allotted to each of the steps.
8. Be specific with your answers. Neither write too much nor too less.
9. Make your preparation syllabus-oriented. For last moment preparations, do not think about learning something out of syllabus or new concept.
10. Solve at least 5 previous years’ board papers without choice. This will help you evaluate where you stand and also give you some idea about what to expect.

All the Best!
