Hello everyone!

I am a student of Class 12 and I believe (and so does everyone around me) that I am in a miserable state of affairs in my academics.

This is my score-sheet in my half-yearly exams.

Maths - 29/100 F
Chem - 34/70   
Phy - 22/70 F
Eng - 89/100 (not bad, huh!)  
Hindi - 89/100 (not that bad either!)

It's not that I have been this bad all through my life. I scored 90.0 % in 10th board CBSE and 76% in Class 11 (CBSE).

But as you can see, things are pretty different now. My parents expect me to touch the 90 mark again. If only I could get my PCM up to the mark, that could become a possibility.

Everything seems so tough now. I feel like I am the dumbest person on Earth. I can't seem to understand even the simplest of concepts.

I admit to have wasted time uptil now, but that was because I have been in a state of depression since the beginning of Class 11. Now, I am ready to work as hard as I humanly can, but nothing seems to be going right.

The Pre-boards are around the corner and I am already suffering from excessive anxiety and sleepless nights made even worse by nightmares about my failing in the Board exams when I do manage to doze off. All this is making matters worse as I am not able to focus on my studies.

I am no position to even think about taking competitive exams. I just want to pass the Board exams with good ( and my idea of 'good' has gone down several notches along with my self-esteem) marks.

Do you think I have enough time to turn things around?

I haven't learned properly even a single topic of Maths so far. When I take up Calculus to study, I begin to wonder how outstandingly brilliant my previously dumb classmates have become as I can't seem to make head or tail out of it. I feel so terrible when can't get through even the first exercise of any chapter.

I do not think I have time enough to do voluminous books like RD Sharma or RS Aggarwal. I have heard that NCERT Maths textbook is good enough for Boards. If I complete each and every topic from the NCERT textbook, would I be able to fare well in the exams; or is it necessary to refer to books like RD Sharma or RS Aggarwal? At the moment, only the NCERT textbook seems like doable for me. But the question is: is it good enough?

Please help! You know how desperate I am!

dnt worry
u still have ample of time left
and remember nothing is impossible
Edmund Hillary once said " Climbing the mountain was not that difficult but the decision to climb it was much difficult"
so make up ur mind to achieve the best and dont settle for less
first start with the basics but go through it quickly
NCERT books will give u the broadest picture,  finish them up
and about the calculus first go through the 11th syllabus , then it will be much easier, at any point of study if u dont get clear idea go through basics of lower classes
best of luck

A month of sincere preparation (For around 3-4 hours a day) will fetch you 90% in class 12. Believe me. Many people's board marks get bogged down only due to english, but your english seems to be good.

Will nip in at times to solve problems :)

HEY, DONT WORRY. WE BOTH ARE ON THE SAME BOAT, I THINK.
COZ EVEN MY PREBOARDS HAVE NOT GONE WELL.
BUT I WAS ADVISED NOT TO FEEL BAD. DONT WORRY I'M SURE YOU WILL TOUCH 90 AND EVEN ABOVE. LIKE ME, MAYBE EVEN YOU NEED A BIT MORE PRACTICE!!
SO, CHEERZ!!
JUST WORK HARD AND GOD KNOWS EVERYTHING. SO WORK AND LEAVE THE REST TO HIM!!!

Remember Cedric. Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort. Remember Cedric Diggory.

Don't get nerveous just give your 100% for your board exam .
And try more and more new question .Never it is too late.






Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: You don't give up.
