What Students Should Focus On:
Practicing PYQs helps students understand the real exam structure and difficulty level. It improves accuracy, boosts confidence, and highlights repetitive numerical and theorem-based questions.
PYQs train students to solve exam-level questions efficiently and avoid common mistakes. They also help identify high-frequency question types and important formulas.
Major Benefits of PYQ Practice:
With strong planning and consistent revision, scoring 90+ in Maths is completely achievable.
