Time management technique!!!

TIME MANAGEMENT

Can't manage your time during paper?
Ain't able to attempt all questions?
Get tensed during the paper?

All the above could be addressed through one simple technique: 'Time Management'.

Benefits of proper time management:
Optimal time is allotted to each question leading to appropriate response for each question;
Student gets sufficient time for re-checking answers;
Student does not get nervous about not having enough time for questions at the end;

How to manage time during paper?
One of the best techniques to manage time is to measure 'Marks value of time'.
The candidate shall compare time allowed for the paper with the total marks. For example., there is a 3-hour paper and total marks are 100.
Now the candidate shall before hand plan 'initial paper reading time' and 're-checking answer' at the end. For example reading paper takes 15 minutes and re-checking answers takes 20 minutes.
Now, for attempting the paper the candidate is left with 180 mints (3 hours) less 35 mints.
That means 145 mints for 100 marks i.e., 1.45 mint for 1 mark (145/100).

For a 10 mint question the candidate shall give no more than 14 mints to 15 mints. If a question takes more than that time, it indicates that the candidate is NOT answering as per requirement of the question. During the exam, if such situation arises, it is always advisable to move on to next question.

To combat problems like these, students are ALWAYS advised to practice at least TWO past papers in an EXAM ENVIRONMENT. The student shall apply the time management technique and identify any questions wherein the student exceeded the time allotted and should work on the portion of the syllabus.

Hope this would help the students overcome time management problems!!!
