Deleted Chapters\/Topics<\/b><\/h4>\n

As per CBSE, some chapters\/topics have been deleted in Social Science. Chapters deleted from <\/span>Democratic Politics-I<\/span>I are:<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter 3: Democracy and Diversity<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter 5: Popular Struggles and Movements<\/span><\/p>\n

So, go through the rationalised content as released by CBSE.<\/span><\/p>\n

Plan Section-Wise Revision with NCERT<\/b><\/h4>\n

Almost equal weightage is given to all four subjects. Carefully memorise the summary of each lesson. You may also create mnemonics to recall factual data. Flowcharts can also be created to remember concepts in a concise manner ensuring proper revision of NCERT textbooks. Do not forget to solve examples and back exercises of each chapter from the NCERT.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Learn Through Mock Papers:<\/b><\/h4>\n

Practise the available Model Test Papers based on the new pattern in the stipulated time frame. Pay special attention to the assertion-reason type of questions. As per the sample paper issued by CBSE, more analytical-type questions were asked. So it is very important to understand the concepts thoroughly to attempt such questions.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b>Key Points to Remember:\u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n
    \n
  • Try to interrelate chapters to develop a better understanding of concepts.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Write answers in points.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Underline important words.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Give special focus on map questions as this is a high-scoring area.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Hope these tips prove beneficial for your preparation. Good luck with your Board exam!<\/span><\/p>\n
