At first, it seems impossible to revise the entire syllabus in one day, but strategic planning can help you with that.
Image: PixabayFocus on the most important topics in the entire syllabus; divide the syllabus as per the weightage of the question paper. Understand the concept rather than simply memorizing it.
Divide the syllabus into time slots to be covered throughout the day. Study for 50 mins and take a 10 mins break to rejuvenate yourself. Start with an easy topic that will give you a good start to keep studying.
Solve past years' exam papers to understand how the questions have come in the past. Use flashcards and formulas for revision.
Create mindmaps for each chapter. Try to draw connections between topics. Summarise each topic and revise it effectively. Use highlighters to mark the keywords for easy recall.
80% of your results come from 20% of your efforts. Focus on the 20 % of the syllabus that covers the highest weightage of the question paper. Do not waste a lot of time on topics that have lower weightage.
A 1-day revision will help you quickly brush up on the key highlights. However, you must start revising the syllabus at proper intervals 1 month before the exam.
Get 7-8 hours of sleep, drink a good amount of water daily and have some healthy snacks every 3 to 4 hours of effective study. A healthy mind and body will help you achieve your goals easily.
Don’t forget to take short breaks after every 40 to 50 minutes of study. You can do some physical exercise or meditation to improve focus.
