Maharashtra HSC Commerce Preparations: Here are a few preparation tips for Maharashtra HSC 2025 that help Commerce students score better in the exam:

    • Make a timetable in which there is a time slot for each subject of Commerce (or at least as many as you can accommodate)
    • Cover the entire syllabus. Do not leave out any topic for the exam. Consult teachers and expert faculty in case of any doubts
    • Each day, keep a separate time slot for the practice of Maharashtra Commerce sample papers and previous years’ question papers.
  • While studying, make short notes. These come in handy when one is revising what they have already studied.  This way, they do not have to go through the entire topic again. 
  • Do not get overburdened. Take short breaks in between study time
  • Be Confident- Students need to be confident while preparing for the exam. Follow a study plan. Don’t panic. Prepare handy notes for last time revision.

  • Practice: Subjects like accounts, economics need a lot of practice. Be patient and focused as the calculations are long and time taking. 

  • Follow the syllabus: For any subject, the syllabus plays an important role. It gives the students an overview of what they should expect in exams. The syllabus also helps students to know about the topics and subtopics.

Maharashtra HSC Commerce Preparation Tips 2025

1. Prepare a Study Schedule
Starting in June, students will have around 8 to 9 months to prepare for the exams. One must utilize this time wisely and plan properly for their studies. Ideally, students should dedicate 6 to 8 hours in study. Check the pointer below and keep them in time to plan your study schedule.
Give time to each and every subject.
Distribute your study time wisely between tough subjects and easy subjects. Say you find Mathematics a bit difficult, then give yourself at least 2 hours daily to practise Maths.
Take short breaks in between each subject.
Study at least two to three subjects in a day.
 
2. Follow the Syllabus and Prescribed Books
This is one of the most important Maharashtra 12th Preparation Tips. Before starting the preparation, one should closely look into the Maharashtra HSC Syllabus. Go through the content for every subject and analyse the topics. Mark all the important topics for each subject. It is also very essential that you follow the prescribed books by the board. Do not run behind many reference books available in the market. Complete the course books first and then, read-only one reference book to clear your concepts.
 
3. Quality Over Quantity
Here, students need to focus more on the quality of what they are studying. Do not rush to cover everything in a single day or month, go slow but keep moving. If you will try to cover everything quickly, then definitely there will be many loopholes left behind. Whatever you are studying at the current time, just concentrate and try to evolve completely into it. You have ample time to cover the syllabus, hence give each topic a justified amount of time. Learn the basic concepts behind every topic and do not leave any doubt unclear.
 
4. Solve Previous Year’s Papers and Sample Papers
Once you are done with the basics, then start practising the previous year’s question papers. With the help of Maharashtra HSC Question Papers, check the type of questions asked in the examination previously. You can also check the marking scheme and exam pattern for the exams through the Previous Year’s Papers. It is important to solve the question papers within the stipulated time and in an almost exam-centre-like environment. With regular practice, students will learn to manage time effectively in the examination.
 
5. Take a Break and Relax
It is very essential to take breaks in between your studies and give some time to yourself to release the stress. This is one of the most important Maharashtra 12th Preparation Tips, which we often skip during the preparation. Along with all the studies, one must keep themselves fit and healthy. Below are some of the points that will keep you healthy and help you to relax during your studies.
Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water daily without fail.
Avoid junk food items. During the exam preparations and especially during exam time, consume only home-cooked food.
Meditate to keep your mind fresh and concentrated
Exercise or stretch your body for 15 to 20 minutes.
Listen to good music or read your favourite book in the break time.
Most importantly, keep distractions away from yourselves. Try to avoid social media platforms during preparations.
 
6. Revision is the Key
The most important Maharashtra 12th Preparation Tips is revision. One should not skip revision at any cost. Try to cover the entire syllabus at least two months before the commencement of the exams. Start revising all the chapters again a month or two before the exams. Practice as much as you can before exams. Learn from your mistakes and improve with each passing day.

Yes, you can appear in 2025 again for the same board and same  subject. If one passed 12th in 2023 from Maharashtra state board but scored less than 50 percent can appear in 2025 from same board and same subject and it is considered as improvement. Students who got less marks will write exams again
