IMPORTANT EXAM TIPS

 FOR SSLC & HSSLC

Q. Should I write the answers as per the serial order?

Ans: It is not compulsory to write the answers serially. You can attempt to any questions according to your comfort. But always put the question numbers and sub-numbers correctly. However, it is advisable that you maintain the question numbers in a systematic and ascending order as far as possible.

Q. Will my marks be deducted if I exceed the given word limit?

Ans: No. Even if you write few extra words in your answers your marks won’t be deducted provided your answer is correct. But don’t go for too long answers. For e.g., if your question instruction says- “Write in 40-50 words”, you should never write your answer in 100 words. That will be too much. You can maximum use 10-15 words extra.

Q. Which colour pen should I use?

Ans: You can use either a Blue or Black pen. It is advisable to use a Ball Point pen instead of a Gel Pen. The ink of a Gel pen may spoil your copy. Moreover, many Gel pens are not water- resistant.

Q. Can I highlight important lines in my answer?

Ans: That is always a great thing to do. You can underline any important line or quote with pencil. But don’t go on to underline any and every line.

Q. Suppose I don’t know the answer of a question, can I leave it

for later?

Ans: Of course. In case you are confused with any answer, don’t waste your time in thinking over it. Just skip to the next questions. You can put a cross mark on that question in your question paper and move on to the next question. Later, when you have finished writing the other answers you can come back to the left out question and write down the answer. But make sure you put a cross mark or just encircle that number with a pencil in your question paper.

Q. Can I write answers on my question paper?

Ans: Never do that. You are liable to be expelled if you make that mistake. Don’t write anything on the question paper. Many students do the mistake of ticking/writing the answers for choose the correct options or fill in the blanks on the question paper. This is not at all allowed.

Q. What if my writing manner is not clean and tidy?

Ans: You have to make sure that you write in a very clean and tidy manner or else the examiner (who will be checking your answer scripts) will not understand your handwriting and deduct marks.

Q. Can I use correction fluid if I write any incorrect word or

sentence?

Ans: No. Never use correction fluid. If you make mistake in writing any word, for example, a spelling error, you need not worry because that’s normal. In such case, just strike off that answer with a single pencil stroke and put a bracket to that incorrect word or sentence. Look at the example below:

 

Oliver Twist was born in (America) a certain English town.

Q. When there is an instruction like ‘write any two’ out of three

questions - if I write all the three answers what will happen? Ans: The first thing is that you will simply waste your time if you don’t follow the instructions properly. In case you write all the

answers then only your first two answers will be checked, the

third one will be left unchecked.

Always follow the instructions given in your questions. This includes instructions like ‘ATTEMPT/WRITE ANY ONE ANSWER & WORD LIMIT’.

Q. What things should I carry in the exam hall?

Ans: Carry the following things in exam:

1.   Two Pens with extra refills

2.   Pencil

3.   Eraser / Rubber

4.   Ruler / Scale

5.   Pocket Sanitizer (If allowed)

6.   Water Bottle (If allowed)

PRE & POST WRITING TIPS

•                                 Keep yourself composed and calm. Don’t panic.

•                                 Write fast but do not hasten.

•                                 Keep sufficient time in hand so that you can check your answers after you have finished writing everything. You should have at least 15 mins time for final checking.

•                                 Tally the question numbers with your answers to check whether you have put all the question numbers correctly against each of your answers.

•                                 If you have taken extra exam sheet then tie it properly with the thread given to you. Don’t tie it loose or else it may get misplaced.
