90-Day Revision Plan for CBSE Boards (Class 10 & 12)

A three-phase, 90-day revision plan for CBSE Class 10 and 12 boards covering learning, practice and full-paper phases, with weekly checkpoints.

Ninety days, roughly mid-November to mid-February, is the classic board revision window. Split it into three phases.

Phase 1 (days 1–30): fill the gaps

  • Finish any chapters not yet studied, NCERT first.
  • Solve the chapter's previous year questions right after studying it.
  • Build your revision sheets as you go: formulas, reactions, dates, key terms.

Phase 2 (days 31–60): chapter-wise practice

  • Rotate subjects daily and practise chapter-wise questions with timed sets.
  • Prioritise high-weightage chapters. Find them for your subject on the chapter weightage page.
  • Weekly checkpoint: one full paper per subject every two weeks.

Phase 3 (days 61–90): full papers and polish

  • Full 3-hour papers: 4–6 per week across subjects.
  • Strict self-marking and an error log.
  • Final week: sheets only, plus sleep.
