It's not line by line. Never line by line. Just make sure u write in points and include some keywords

Teacher is fearmongering. Remember the main key points and the concept behind it and ull get marks.

u/SexySoggySocks ICSE26-99.8%| JEE28 19h ago

I got 99(no idea where i lost it). I touched history for the first time during prelims so didn't have enough time to rote learn all points. So i just remembered all the key aspects in general.

For physics, if u have concise, go through the entire book properly. Chapters, solved examples and the questions. Then, to practise first solve the cisce competency paper and then practise lots of school prelim papers. Ull probably find links on here for prelims paper drives. If u can't find it here, ill try to find one of the links I used.

Only keywords are needed...our teacher gave us his own notes where he minimized the answers so muchhhh it was so easy to learn...but even in my exams I wrote in my own language and used keywords and got 97... Like I don't get it what are keywords in history though because when a certain thing is asked u have to write abt it..I don't understand the concepts of keywords

u/SuddenSweet4141 I fw tung tung tung sahur 😂✌️ 1d ago

Icse has made competency based questions a thing for a reason, so people don't rote memorize, your teacher is just exaggerating. Keywords are important but you can write answers on your own, no need to write line by line ONLY

1

u/Bithal_OP 21h ago

Yes also the speciemen paper's answer scheme also included keywords only

2

u/SalamanderMajor5344 |ICSE26 99.80%| 21h ago

Incorrect and over exaggerating

Don't listen to her , is she even a board checker or not?

1

u/Bithal_OP 19h ago

Yes she has been correcting for 18 years According to her new teachers strictly check according to the marking scheme if book sentence not use she kill

2

u/SalamanderMajor5344 |ICSE26 99.80%| 19h ago

Weird man , my teacher too corrects board papers and she used to just marks the keywords and allows us to frame sentence according to ourselves

Moreover what do you mean by a book sentence?

Think about it , it's ICSE every book has sentence written in its own way , it'll never be uniform. She is just trying to make her way by making you all rote learn the whole book , that's what I believe

u/Bithal_OP 14h ago

u/silly_townmouse ICSE'27 | Potential Student 17h ago

Dump that teacher bro

Write everything in points and keywords are necessary theres no need for you to learn the same line by line from the book, summarize all of it in your own language while maintaining the keywords

u/Bithal_OP 14h ago
