Kerala Class 10 Board Exam Preparation Tips for 2025

Study tips

If you want to score an A+ in all your subjects in the SSLC board exam, follow these tips, and you'll be well-prepared for your exams!

  1. Make a Study Plan That Works for You:

    Plan your study schedule to cover all subjects without overwhelming yourself. Give extra time to complex topics and stick to your plan.

  2. Use SCERT Books the Right Way:

    SCERT books are the foundation for most exams. Read them thoroughly, understand concepts, and don’t skip examples or exercises.

  3. Take Notes for Quick Revision

    Writing down key points in your own words helps you remember better. Keep your notes short and to the point to revise them later.

  4. Understand Concepts Instead of Rote Learning

    Memorizing without understanding won’t help in the long run. Focus on grasping the logic behind concepts to apply them in different situations.

  5. Practice with Sample Papers & Mock Tests

    Solve previous years’ papers and mock tests to get familiar with the exam pattern. This will also help improve your speed and accuracy.

  6. Don’t Cram Everything the Night Before

    Last-minute cramming creates stress and confusion. Instead, revise key points and focus on what you have already studied.

  7. Test Yourself Regularly

    Self-testing helps you track your progress and identify weak areas. Use flashcards, quizzes, or teach someone else to reinforce your learning.

  8. Revise the Smart Way

    Instead of reviewing everything again, revise the important topics, formulas, and tricky concepts. Use mind maps and summary sheets for better recall.

  9. Keep Practicing Until You Master It

    Repetition is key to success. Keep solving problems and revising concepts until you feel confident about them.

  10. Be Smart in the Exam Hall

    Read the questions carefully, manage your time wisely, and start with the ones you are most confident about. Stay calm and focused to perform your best.

Important thing to note for the SSLC Exam

Here are some important things to keep in mind for the exam:

  • Arrive at the exam center early to have enough time to settle in.
  • You’ll get 15 minutes before the exam starts to read the question paper carefully and mark the questions as easy, medium, or difficult.
  • The exam duration may vary slightly depending on the subject.
  • Don’t forget to bring your hall ticket; you won’t be allowed to take the exam without it.
