Important Tips For Board Exams.
Special Tips for Business Studies:
Word limit for the answers to different questions must be followed. Rather than counting the words in the answer make a rough estimate of your words in a line and then count the number of lines to be used.
Explanation of each point should be 2 - 3 sentences, depending on individual expression of the students. But if the number of points to be given are specifically mentioned in the question, there is no need of giving extra points in your answer.
Answers must be precise and to the point. Write what is relevant to the question. Don't try to impress the examiner by writing extra and irrelevant material.
In case of long answers you must underline the main headings with dark blue ink only.
Answer to questions involving difference must be written in columns.
Questions involving process must be answered in steps in serial order. If that sequence is broken you should not expect marks for the answer. Must give a diagram clearly labelled, showing the process.
In case of internal choice in the questions, try to attempt direct questions, to get maximum marks.
While starting to write the answer to the question, once again read the question thoroughly to decide the answer required by the examiner.
Answers must be written as per the marks allotted and the budgeted time.
You can use small cartoons and diagrams to support your answers.
While answering the questions involving case studies, read the question given at the end of the case study first, then read the whole case.
All the answers must begin with an introductory sentence, as to what you are going to write. However, Long answers should have a concluding sentence also.
Above all, you must make it sure to follow the Golden Principle "Make the examiner happy by writing what he wants, he will make you happy by giving the marks that you want".
Always tie your sheets securely and tightly, checking again your particulars on the title sheet.
All the Best
