Are you unable to follow your time table?
Well, it happens with most of us. We are not able to strictly follow the time table and then we get stressed with the pending work. Classes 9th and 11th are the founding years for the board students to brush their concepts and polish their skills.
They need to acquire the relevant conceptual knowledge to score well in the board examinations in the succeeding years. They would also need to broaden their base so as to clear NTSE and Olympiads.
