7. Take mock self tests. These will give you a feel of the real exam and when you take the real exam you won’t feel you are doing something new or different.

While solving maths questions make use of stop watch.Start the stop watch as soon as you start solving the question and stop as soon as finish the question.Use it for every question you do.This way you will come to know how much time you are spending on each question and slowly start increasing the speed.

Certificate in Vocational Education(CVE-Class 12)
CBSE – conducts two exams
All India Secondary School Exam AISSE(Class 10)
All India Senior School Certificate Exam, AISSCE ( Class 12)

•In higher classes children find it difficult to shift from CSBE to CICSE while shifting from CICSE to CBSE is easier.

Most of the parents in earlier classes put the children in CICSE so that their base becomes strong and then in higher class shift them to CBSE or State board so that they are at an advantage and get better scores.

•CICSE syllabus is recognised in many foreign schools and universities while CBSE is well recognised within the country.

•In CICSE more emphasis is laid on English as compared to CBSE.

•If the parents have transferable jobs then it is better to put the children into ICSE or CBSE .If the transfers are restricted to metros or urban areas then any of the two boards will do. But ,if transfer involves tier-2 cities it is better to choose CBSE syllabus as CICSE schools are rare.
