The 10% of questions on the CBSE class X exams will focus on critical thinking: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) announced that the class X Board 2020 exam would include 8 to 10% of the questions based on critical thinking, analysis and competition.
These questions can be based on cases or passages of understanding, focusing on high-level skills. The board made this change to assess students’ ability to analyze, reason and communicate their ideas effectively.
Here are some things you should be aware of when trying out the role of Tip 10:
- Start by reading the questionnaire well
The first thing to do is to read your newspaper well, to understand it well. When writing the answers, you must first understand what you are asked for and the number of marks it contains. The answer must be written accordingly, logically and completely.
- Use the first 15 minutes effectively
At first, you have 15 minutes to read the question paper; Take this time to do exactly that, read. Read the 30 questions in 15 minutes. While reading, check the questions in categories that are wise, easy, manageable and difficult. This is done to get a general idea about the questions and make a rough plan.
- Do not worry about the most difficult ones
At the moment you discover that there are difficult questions; It is natural that you start worrying about them. This is not mandatory and it will only hurt your performance.
The fact is that they may seem a bit difficult on the surface, but when you really work on them, you will find that most of them are a lot easier than they seemed. So be happy with the easiest ones and do not worry too much about the tough ones.
- Ensure speed and accuracy
Use faster methods in calculations to make sure you do not waste your time and that your answers are correct. For example, if you make a mistake in the sign of a term (+/-), you may not be able to solve questions with quadratic equations or linear equations. Therefore, it is very important to avoid stupid mistakes to save time. Always follow the tips we discuss in speed strategies.
- Avoid thinking too much about a question
Thinking of the questions before trying them is essential; but not to the point that you are wasting a lot of time on a question.
In addition, you do not need to write a very long answer to a question simply because the question is easy and you know it very well. Remember, you just have to answer the question and nothing else. Any excessive attempt will be a waste of time.
- Check your answers
Usually, the question papers are set up so that even after trying all the questions, the students have 5 to 10 minutes at the end to review their answers. Do not waste your time and check all your answers.
- Choose your options wisely
In some questions, several options will be provided. Do not hurry and make your choice wisely. Read the questions carefully: Before you start writing the answer, read the question carefully. See what is asked in the question.
- Use plain language
When writing your answer, be sure to use language that is easy to understand. An examiner will be more impressed by a conceptual response written in simple language than by a non-conceptual language but written in flowery language.
- Avoid using slangs
The use of slang words or whatsapp language will be considered as a misspelling and will be penalized for the same.
The jury made it very clear that some changes were made during the preparation of the Sample Question Materials (SQPs) to prepare students for future challenges.
The Commission also asked all schools to consider changing the SQP and prepared students based on the final examples of questions. In order for students to clearly understand the new concepts, the pre-meeting question papers must be prepared in accordance with the new sample documents.
The Commission has also reduced the number of subjective / descriptive questions to give students enough time to think and write creatively.
