How I Scored 96% in 12th PCM Boards.

Main ideas / lessons conveyed

• You score well in Class 12 boards by mastering NCERT and strong classroom learning—not by relying only on coaching or competitive exam prep.
• Class 11–12 boards demand deeper conceptual understanding than 10th, so you must pay attention in school classes.
• After theory, you must write answers and practice thoroughly—the speaker frames answer writing as the key “optimization.”
• Limit “extra” material: the speaker claims success mainly with NCERT + a question bank (and NCERT Exemplar for Math).
• Avoid “one-shots” because Class 12 requires conceptual depth, especially for:
  • unseen/derivation-based problems
  • long/specific-marker answers
• Aim for 80–90% command of the syllabus, not perfection in everything—important because many questions have A/B options.
• Use targeted resources where helpful (e.g., YouTube for specific subjects) and do notes/keywords-focused preparation for weaker areas.

Methodology / instructions (detailed)

1) Focus on classroom understanding (school/tuition)

• Pay attention during school classes as much as possible.
• Reason given:
  • NCERT difficulty/coverage progresses from 10th → 11th/12th at a higher level.
  • You may not fully understand Class 12 NCERT if you don’t build the base in class.
• If you still don’t understand something after trying in class:
  • Use free YouTube resources (example: Magnet Brains, ~200-lecture playlist).
  • Use them only for concepts you struggle with, not every concept.

2) Complete NCERT theory before advanced practice

• NCERT is a prerequisite.
• Boards are said to avoid extremely complex/calculative questions.
• Instead, boards typically ask:
  • high theory knowledge, plus
  • a specific niche formula/step drawn from that theory.

3) Use “answer writing” to convert knowledge into marks

• Do answer writing before every paper.
• The speaker frames this as the major lever for scoring.

4) Practice all NCERT question types thoroughly

After completing NCERT theory:

• Solve alongside:
  • Solved examples
  • Miscellaneous questions (Math)
  • Physics derivations presented in the book
• Instruction: solve “every single thing that could be presented as a question,” because practice helps you learn.
• In Class 12 preparation, balance:
  • Theory + application + answer writing.

5) Use NCERT-based extensions in a subject-wise manner

• Maths
  • After NCERT, do NCERT Exemplar.
  • Search “NCERT exemplar” and solve it.
• Other subjects
  • After exemplar (for Math), move to a question bank with:
    • PYQs
    • application-based questions

6) Use question bank resources (optional purchase suggestion)

• The speaker suggests buying Oswaal question banks.
• Claimed features:
  • Formula booster notebook
  • Notes/revision/mind map style format
  • Coverage of:
    • MCQs
    • Very short/short/long PYQ-based practice
    • Competency-focused practice questions
• Rationale for competency questions:
  • “Last year people scored much less,” so competency practice becomes more important this time.

7) Avoid “one-shots”

• Instruction: never rely on one-shots.
• Reason:
  • Class 12 requires conceptual depth, not just quick coverage.
  • One-shots won’t be enough for deep conceptual requirements and derivation-based unseen questions.
• Evidence/example:
  • The speaker describes solving a physics derivation question they hadn’t seen before using conceptual depth.

8) Control scope: master 80–90% of the syllabus

• Don’t aim to be 100% proficient in everything.
• Target 80–90% command to maximize marks.
• Reason:
  • Many difficult questions have A or B options, enabling strategic scoring.

9) Personal adjustment for weak topics (example given)

• Speaker was weak in calculus, so performance improved by leveraging:
  • definite vs indefinite integration
• Claimed result:
  • 95 in Maths

10) Subject-specific help for English

• Instruction:
  • Search YouTube for “CBSE guidance class 12th”
  • Use it to get the keywords needed for English
  • Make notes alongside the resource
• Claimed result:
  • 95 in English

11) Practical prep behavior the speaker warns about

• The speaker says they skipped pre-boards (while being confident), but then explicitly advises:
  • Do not skip pre-boards practice
