How Video Lessons and Sample CBSE Papers Can Help You Tackle the CBSE Syllabus

The CBSE syllabus is quite vast and complex, especially for the 10th and 12th standards. While a lot of steps have been taken in recent years to help lighten the burden on students about to give the board exams, the fact is that the CBSE syllabus is still a hurdle for many students, even intelligent ones. The percentage of students who pass the CBSE board exams is not inconsiderable; indeed, the overall trend has been an increase in the number of students who manage to pass. The CBSE syllabus is an obstacle in that it can deter many students from achieving their full potential. They are not able to get the high marks that they deserve, because they are not able to fully grasp the CBSE syllabus.

This is where video lessons and sample CBSE papers can help you. Read the brief descriptions below to get an idea about how they can help you tackle the CBSE syllabus effectively and efficiently.

Video Lessons:

Video lessons, as the name suggests, are lessons that are imparted to students in the form of videos. These videos could be live action, using footage of teachers giving practical demonstrations of academic concepts, and footage of real objects, which illustrate the concepts being explained in the video lesson. Video lessons could also include animated explanations of different subject topics. These are usually available on educational TV channels and on education portals.

The visual sense is a very powerful one and therefore, video lessons are very effective in helping students grasp different concepts and ideas of the CBSE syllabus quickly. Moreover, students are able to retain these for a longer time, than if they had learnt these only through pen-and-paper explications. These videos also help students realize how textbook formulae and ideas are applied in real life.

Sample CBSE Papers:

Sample CBSE papers are papers that are modeled on real CBSE papers of past years and are available to students from many different sources. Apart from the 'official' sample papers the CBSE itself brings out, other players in the education sector also offer their own model CBSE papers. These include publishers of educational books, coaching institutes, and educational websites.

These are a study resource that cannot be neglected by any student who wants to score very good marks in the CBSE board exams. Sample CBSE papers are a good way for students to gauge their exam preparedness much before the real exam, especially if students practice giving online, real-time, mock tests. It will help them identify their weak areas, so that they can get their doubts and queries in the specific areas cleared with the help of their school teachers or coaching instructors. Such CBSE papers also help students learn better time management, with regard to the time they should allocate for solving each question.
