Effective Study Habits for Terminal Board Exams
Dr. Katherine Evans
Principal (Faculty)
As board examinations approach, many students struggle with anxiety and study overload. However, academic success is not about studying for 15 hours straight; it is about using effective study strategies.First, practice active recall. Instead of repeatedly highlighting textbook pages, close the book and write down key concepts from memory. This builds stronger neural connections. Second, use the Pomodoro technique—study for 25 minutes, then take a 5-minute break. This keeps your brain active and prevents fatigue.Third, utilize revision scheduling models. Solve past board exam papers under real test timings. This builds writing speed and mock exam familiarity. Remember to maintain proper sleep patterns and balanced nutrition. Step By Step faculty members are always available for extra query sessions to support you throughout your board preparation.
