Be wise while selecting Five marks questions !

Some Guidelines For students appearing for class XII Physics Board Exams.

Answering 5 marks questions

CBSE gives two options for each five marks questions.

You have to be wise while selecting the question for answering. In some cases, one option will carry a "describe the principle construction and working" type and the other may be a combination of small questions.

If you know the answers to the small questions, it is better to choose it, since you will be scoring marks with less time consumption and the marks will be give point wise. It is easy to identify the key points for small questions.

Some general points to keep in mind.

Answer to the point. Avoid unnecessary descriptions and beating around the bush.

Donot repeat the same answer twice or more; you cannot fool the CBSE exam system by that

Draw diagrams neatly using a pencil and scale or other relevant geometrical instruments.

Draw a horizontal line after completing each answer.
