How your plan works

A day-by-day CBSE Class 10 plan, built from the official syllabus and sized to the time you have.

  1. 01

    Pick the exam and your subjects

    Choose the exam, the subjects you're sitting (up to eight) and your exam date.

  2. 02

    Say how much time you have

    Set the minutes you can study each day. The plan is sized to that, not to an ideal student.

  3. 03

    Study today's tasks

    Each day mixes a new topic, review cards, mistake practice and quizzes, with a mock exam near the end.

  4. 04

    Let the plan keep up

    Tasks tick themselves off from what you actually do. Missed work rolls forward instead of piling up.

How to prepare for CBSE Class 10

For Class 10 students preparing for CBSE board exams.

  1. 01

    Start with the chapters that carry the most marks

    Where the board publishes unit weightage, it's shown below. Plans give the heavier units more days.

  2. 02

    Write answers, then get feedback

    For Social Science and English, write the answer yourself and ask the tutor what a stronger one would add.

  3. 03

    Practise maths every day

    Short daily practice beats long sessions before the exam. Mistakes go into your log and come back as practice.

  4. 04

    Keep science diagrams and terms fresh

    Review cards bring back definitions and diagrams just before you'd forget them.
