Crack The Code of Class 10 CBSE

In class 10, I was worried about one chapter in Maths – “Surface Area and Volume”. Even though the whole chapter was just a bunch of formulas and I had been studying similar chapters in lower classes, I still was confused on which formula to apply for a particular situation. Since all the problems asked from this chapter were word problems, I felt that it was tough to ascertain which information was really required to solve the question and which were just given to derail me. One of the key parts of the chapter, were the water-flow sums. Undoubtedly, it was the most difficult type of sums I encountered while studying. I remember practicing this type of sums, right before the exam, so that I wouldn’t make a mistake in the boards. As I suspected, I got a water-flow based problem in my paper. Some questions demanded the conversion of units (for example, m^3 to cm^3) to the most appropriate. I had lost a lot of marks in my school exams, just because I didn’t convert the unit...

Diagrams, a difficulty – One of the difficulties I faced while preparing for my unit tests and pre-boards, was the diagrams in Physics and Biology. Chemistry didn’t have many diagrams that were important for the board exams. Physics had some easy and basic diagrams which were important. But Biology had many difficult diagrams which needed to be memorized. I was confused with what diagrams I had to memorize, because of the endless list of them. Solutions – To solve this, I asked my teachers for the most important diagrams to expect for the boards. I compiled a list and started practicing them. At first, it was difficult drawing the diagrams. Afte...
