How to tackle NCERT Questions

Quality NCERT solutions are a sure-shot way to score great marks in the final CBSE examinations. Quality NCERT solutions not only ensure a brilliant score, but also a complete conceptual understanding of all important topics that will benefit a student not only in this academic year but the next academic year as well. Therefore, it is important for all students studying under CBSE board to take their end-of-chapter NCERT exercises seriously and aim for complete and comprehensive NCERT solutions.

Students can achieve their dream score by following these essential steps and arrive at NCERT solutions that are completely in sync with the ideal NCERT solutions.

  • Before starting to write NCERT solutions, students should first go through the entire syllabus and get an idea of the topics that need to be covered in this academic year. Students should also glance through the entire NCERT books prescribed for various subjects. This will help them get an idea all that is covered in the NCERT chapters in the various subjects. Undertaking an activity like this will help students gauge the effort and time required to efficiently complete the syllabus.
  • To write quality solutions, a logical step is to give the NCERT chapter a thorough read. While reading the NCERT chapter, students should highlight all the important points in the chapter and appropriately mark other minor but relevant details in the chapter for framing complete and accurate answers. At this stage students are also expected to understand all the concepts and learn all relevant details that will help them frame quality NCERT answers.
  • While planning to attempt end-of-chapter NCERT questions, students should first try to analyze the question and then go about answering it. Any NCERT question should be analyzed on two criterions.
  • The question type i.e. is it a multiple choice, long answer, short answer or one word answer question? The student should accordingly set the word limit for their answers. This will help students customize their answer as per the requirements of the NCERT questions and frame complete answers that can help score great marks in the exams.
  • Understanding the ‘key’ word in the question-The next important aspect that a student must keep in mind while attempting NCERT questions is to understand the requirements of the questions and accordingly tailor their NCERT solutions. While planning to tackle a NCERT question, students should give the question a thorough read and try to answer as per the instructions in the question. For example while answering any questions the approach to the answer will vary with instructions like ‘elucidate’, ‘explain’, ‘classify’, ‘differentiate’ etc. Therefore, while writing answers to any NCERT questions students must keep in mind these points so as to fetch their dream score.

After preparing the solution sheet for end-of-chapter NCERT questions, students can refer to the free NCERT solutions available online by a few websites. These websites will help you assess your answers against the NCERT solutions that can considered ideal thereby allowing you to be sure of a great performance in the final exam.

All the best!
