Raksha’s Mantra for Success…

• Just planning to get top scores might not always work out, you just have to put your level best into the effort.
• You need to focus, concentrate, and times, have a little time off, since you need it as much the study time. Basically, striking the right balance is the key to scoring well in Boards.
• The pressure to perform well in Class 12 is real and understandable, since it’s at an All-India level. Nervous moments happen to the best of students, and are not something that you should get bogged down by.
• Quality and not the quantity of your preparation holds a lot of importance and goes a long way in strengthening your ability to write perfect answers.
• She also talks about how important a support system can be in making sure students can perform well in exams. She stresses on the importance of a peaceful study atmosphere and that the support and guidance of parents, teachers and friends is essential.
