Many students think that Mathematics is a hard subject, but it is not as difficult and scary as it sounds.

If you learn Mathematics with the proper planning, then it will become your most scoring subject. 

• Practice Daily: Maths is a subject in which we cannot learn the chapters just like any other subject. In Maths we have to understand the concept and practice the questions. Students should practice Maths daily because maths is a subject which cannot be mastered just a night before the examinations.

• Solve Examples: Students should not try Complex problems from the beginning. If you directly solve the hard questions from the start, then you will get wrong answers which will discourage you from the mathematics subject itself. Hence students should try simple problems first.

• Clear Your Doubts: When you get doubts while solving maths, then try to clear them as soon as possible, with the help of your teachers or you can also use Vedantu's online tuition classes to clear doubts.

• Note Down All The Formulas: note down all the formulas in a rough copy, so that you can always take a quick revision of all the formulas before your examinations.

• Understand the Derivations: don't try to learn a formula, try to find the logic behind it because when you learn the formula, there are chances of forgetting the formula during the examinations.

If you try to study maths with better preparation beforehand then you can easily score good marks in mathematics.
