How to prepare Physics for boards as well as NEET 2018?

Physics is an important and tricky subject to crack. But if you plan well and put the right things in the right place you will surely ace the exam. Talking about physics, it requires conceptual understanding and logical solving abilities. But every subject you can master by first knowing the basics thoroughly. Below are a few topics that you need to know to master the basics and to score high in the board and NEET exam:

Important topics in Physics for Class 12:

• Optics
• Electronic Devices
• Communication Systems
• Atoms and nuclei
• Electrostatics
• Dual nature of matter
• Magnetism

To learn the above topics you will require the following strategy:

Preparation Strategy:

1. Students who are weaker in Mathematics should try to read Modern Physics initially. The Semiconductor chapter is one of the most important chapters as its weight-age is around 8 marks. Atom and Nuclei together constitute 6 marks.
2. The next set of chapters will consist of Dual Nature of Radiation carries 4 marks. Communication system constitutes 3 marks. Having command over these chapters help students in a great deal in obtaining higher marks in Physics. After having a command over these chapters, you will be done with the basics of Physics.
3. After the basics, you need to go for important and difficult chapters like Optics which carries 14 marks in the board exam. In optics, you need to complete Ray optics first, which is easier to study. In Wave Optics, you should concentrate more on problems of Interference, Diffraction, and Young’s double slit experiment.
4. Current and Electricity is also an easier chapter and it carries 7 marks
5. If one has not studied Electrostatics and Magnetism till date then it is better to leave these chapters because these two units consume more times than other. These chapters are very important for competitive exams.
6. EMI is another unit that you need to focus on to score well.
7. It is an important unit both for the board exam and competitive exams.
8. Practice the ray diagram and other important diagrams carefully. Drawing and studying will help you understand many topics faster and in an easier way.
9. Try to solve objective problems to make yourself efficient in solving 1 mark questions in the exam this will be like a bonus for you.

How to prepare?

• Step 1: Go through the NCERT book for physics. It is the most important book for Physics board exam of class 12. All topics in the syllabus for the exam are covered in the NCERT book.
• Step 2: Make a complete list of derivations, formulae, and experiments in your syllabus and keep that list it will be handy later during the exam.
• Step 3: While solving a derivation, try and comprehend the logic behind the derivations. Understanding a derivation will help you derive it easily at any given time.
• Step 4: Revise the all the concepts regularly.
• Step 5: If you do not like the numerical part, start early! Get used to the numerical part. Solve each and every numerical in the NCERT book (both, solved and unsolved). Physics papers compulsorily have numerical so there is no escaping it!
• Step 6: Do not forget to mention the S.I units (if any) for all physical entities.
• Step 7: After you finish your syllabus, solve questions from CBSE sample papers and books like EXAM IDEA Sample papers in Physics in a timed environment.

Tips for scoring good marks during the exam:

1. During the exam, try to write your descriptive answers in points and give pictorial or graphical illustrations wherever possible. It enhances visibility. A good revision tactic for NEET 2018.
2. Scan the paper before answering.
3. For long answer type questions, before starting, frame a skeleton of the answer in the margin.
4. Be crisp and to the point in very short questions.

All The BEST :)
