6 Highly Effective Tips to Balance Boards and Entrance Exams Together

1. Find the Common Element Some entrance exams would have some common elements with your academic subjects and you can use this to your advantage. Start by first jotting down all the commonalities, i.e. common areas/topics. 

2. Customise Your Preparation Making strategies and finding common elements with the board syllabi is a lot easier for science entrance exams such as the JEE and NEET, but what about the other exams?

3. Do a Mock Analysis One of the ways to make optimal use of the time that one dedicates toward exam preparation, regardless of the academic discipline, is to attempt mocks. However, mocks only benefit you if you diligently analyze your performance. 

4. Prioritize, not Balance While you know both entrances and boards are important, don’t make the inference that you have to balance both all the time. Learn to prioritize one over the other and prepare a schedule by accordingly alloting time to both.

5. Know Where You Stand We generally follow what our friends and peers follow, and think if they are able to ace something, then “why not me?” But there are factors such as aptitude, study pattern, retention power, etc.

6. Utilize the Time After (and Between) Boards  This is one of those things everybody is aware of but don’t always implement it. Usually, students become carefree after board exams and often lose focus on maintaining the same strategy for entrance exams.
