Class Notes 4 You

After interacting with many toppers, seeing their answers I discovered: In geography questions: Compulsorily Make a map Try making a schematic and figures. Include examples from india and world too ( if possible) Cover different dimension on questions on geographical features. Extensively use keywords in the answer. Jail escape : when you don't know the answer. If you don't have much content make a flow chart , map or figure and scribble some keywords in the answers.

Always strive to complete your paper.  Instead of writing few very good answers write all answers even if they are average.  If you have a poor handwriting work on it. More easier it is for the examiner to read and understand your copy, more marks you are likely to get.  Try to finish every sheet you get in the answer booklet because it provides an impression to the examiner that you know things. We all know that examiners do not read every word you have written.

Firstly , attempt 15 mark questions —-within 15 mark question choose 8 que (you can do this within 5 min given to you before you can actually start writing ).

(third option don't exist —-you never have to slow down 😆) —These timing you will frame for yourself when you are giving mock tests  Always underline important things , committee recommendations , data , statistics etc. will fetch extra marks.

Arbitration, Conciliation and Mediation are the main Alternative Dispute Resolution Mechanism which is generally adopted to resolve disputes in an informal manner. Arbitration is the process by which parties select an independent person, who renders a decision regarding the case. Conciliation attempts to make parties come to an agreement about the problem at hand. Mediation , the mediator acts as a facilitator who helps the parties in agreeing  The primary difference between Arbitration, Conciliation and Mediation is based on the role played by the third party who is selected by the parties seeking a settlement, in consensus.
