While writing your CBSE class 10 exam, make sure you draw neat diagrams wherever needed. Diagrams help you to score better, and there is no harm in making them even if the question does not clearly ask for them, as diagrams can help you score better. Always underline or highlight important keywords in your answers so the examiner can easily notice them. Be extra careful while attempting competency-based questions, and read case-study questions at least twice to fully understand what is being asked before you start writing.
For managing your time well, try to finish Section A (MCQs) in about 20 minutes. Spend around 50–60 minutes on Sections B and C. Keep 20–25 minutes for the case-study questions. Save the last 15 minutes to revise your paper, check for mistakes, and make any necessary corrections.
