The best way to practice is to solve the sample question papers of the CBSE exam you will appear for. However, if you doubt the idea of solving the sample question papers, here are the top 5 advantages of doing so.

    1. Understanding the pattern of the paper

    The pattern of any exam keeps on changing from time to time. An unfamiliar pattern of questions can create panic situations that are not good for your performance in the exam. 

    Having a clear idea of the question pattern is always good, as uncertainty about the question pattern will lower your confidence.

    Solving the sample question papers will keep you updated regarding the pattern of questions. This will help you be prepared to answer any questions that could be asked in the exam.

    Uncertainty about the question patterns is a strict NO if you want to score well.

    Knowing the pattern of the paper gives you an idea of the chapter-wise weightage of the marks as well. When you know the chapter-wise weightage, you can allot time for preparing and revising the chapters accordingly. It helps you to prioritize the chapters for your further study plan.

    Knowing the paper pattern can also help you plan your strategy on how you answer the questions.

    2. Improve time management

    You will often come across students who are good at their studies and know the answers to almost all the questions asked in the exam. However, they fail to complete their exam within the stipulated time slot. This is nothing but a lack of time management. Time management is a crucial aspect when you appear for any exam.

    When you solve a good number of sample question papers by allowing yourself a certain time limit, you will find that your speed to answer the questions has increased. 

    Not only the theoretical subjects but solving the sample question papers will increase your speed of solving mathematical problems, which is a must to score good marks in mathematical subjects.

    When you solve a few sample question papers, there is a chance that you come across familiar questions in the exam. When the questions are familiar, you will be able to answer them faster, saving you some time to answer other questions.

    Having had online exams for over two years due to the pandemic, the writing speed of students has lowered considerably. Thus, solving the sample question papers is of utmost importance to ensure that you finish your exam within the allotted time frame. 

    3. Self-assessment 

    When you solve sample question papers, you will get an idea of your weak and strong areas. You will thus be able to assess yourself on this parameter. 

    After knowing the areas you are weak at, you can work harder on them. You can also track your progress by comparing your current performance with the performance while solving the earlier sample question paper.

    Additionally, you can maintain a diary to record the marks you scored while solving each sample question paper. You can revisit this diary after a specific time and track your progress.

    By assessing your performance this way, you can allow the necessary time for studying the topics you are weak at.

    Self-assessment will help you improve your performance in the actual exam.

    4. Rectify your mistakes

    Do you remember an exam where you had scored less only due to a few silly mistakes committed by you? You would have thought then that it was possible to avoid that mistake. Yes, you could have avoided that mistake.

    But when you solve a few sample question papers, you are well aware of the mistakes you commit, and you have a chance to rectify those mistakes before you appear for your actual exam.

    Knowing the possible mistakes you can make, you will also be able to make an effective strategy to tackle tricky questions.

    5. Boost your confidence

    What is better than seeing a familiar question in your exam? Seeing another familiar question! It has been observed that in almost all the exams, a few important questions are repeated for consecutive or alternate years. Thus, when you solve sample question papers from a previous couple of years, you have a fair chance to come across familiar questions in your exam.

    Answering the questions you have already written as practice will increase your self-confidence.

    Solving sample question papers with a set time limit gives you the ability to answer the questions faster. 

    Thus, your self-confidence increases when you have attempted many sample question papers.

    Also, you can find out NCERT Solutions for CBSE Class 12 and NCERT Solutions for CBSE Class 10 Board Exam, along with Chapterwise important concepts. 

    Summary

    While preparing to appear for any exam, practice is an aspect no one can ignore. The best way to practice your syllabus thoroughly is undoubtedly solving the sample question papers. 

    Solving sample question papers gives you an in-depth view of the knowledge you have already gained and determines the remaining gaps to score well in your exam. 

    Solving mathematical problems from as many sample question papers as possible ensures that you score well in mathematics which is considered one of the toughest subjects. This is so because when you solve a few sample papers, you will find that the pattern of certain problems is similar, only the values are changed.

    An important factor like time management can be improved by solving sample question papers.

    Self-assessment is something one should always concentrate on to know where you are lagging. It also helps you to develop a strategy for achieving your goals. 

    All in all, solving sample question papers is a great way to prepare for your exam. They are a way to revise a vast syllabus in a short time. This is the best way!

    6. How many sample question papers should students solve?

    Solving CBSE sample question papers after you have completed your course will help you get many benefits. You can solve as many question papers as possible to better practice.

    It is advisable to solve at least one sample question paper daily in your study schedule. This can be increased when the exam is just around the corner.
