Make a preparation portfolio

As the students have to cover a vast syllabus for the board exams, it is naturally tough to keep track of the topics which are strong enough to need a soft revision and the topics which require special attention. Hence, it is always helpful to maintain a preparation portfolio for all the topics.

Maintain a to-do list

It is always good to have a habit of maintaining a to-do list and being able to follow it religiously.

Prioritize your tasks

With a mammoth amount of work to be done during the gap days, it is a necessary activity to prioritize your concepts for revisions. The students should prepare a priority list, with reference to the preparation portfolio they have made earlier. The list should have a strategic plan for each topic of the subjects, from tough topics to easy topics, and hence the revision time needs to be allotted accordingly, less time for easier topics and more time for tougher topics should be alloted.

Do not Overburden, maintain a healthy lifestyle

The gap days between the exams are the most important time when the students need to be health conscious, as it may lead to huge losses, if you fall ill in-between the exams. The students must allot at least an hour each day for physical activities like sports, as this helps the brain & body easily coordinate for the revision schedule. In order to achieve a healthy lifestyle, one must take enough sleep to ensure responsiveness of the brain for the preparation.
