Hi everyone! as all my buddies on brilliant that are presently in class 10 would be knowing that NTSE exam is near i would like all of you to share your ideas over how you have been preparing for NTSE . This will help all of us and we can easily qualify for the second round . anyone who has given the NTSE exam earlier can share his experience with all of us so that we can learn more and more till the exam comes.

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

  • Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
  • Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
  • Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
  • Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

HAHA! XD...I must say as the others say the culprit is Social Science. In TN you wouldn't believe but cutoff for General Cat. is 133/140. Its too damn high and missing a few questions will cost y'er a lot. Since each state has different syllabi I dont think my ranting here would help. FYI- We don't even have access to sample papers or last year paper. :( Anyway -Best of Luck and wish me the same too. We'll meet here on 2nd November again.

You can refer to the book of TATA Mcgraw hill education because it is really useful and very clear for MAT . For SAT you have to study state board books of class 10 and class 9 . Unfortunately, it is a great disadvantage for CBSE students

@Sriram Venkatesan Thank you @Sriram Venkatesan . Is the state board and cbse syllabus very different and is it true that icse syllabus are also included?

Log in to reply

@Vishwathiga Jayasankar social syllabus is about 95 % different especially history which includes participation of tamil leaders in freedom struggle and about tamilnadu geography ..... maths and science is more or less the same . I am not sure if icse sylllabus is also included in NTSE

Hello to all my fellow Brillianteers! I am a student of class 10 and am going to give NTSE this year from Chhattisgarh I wanted to ask all of you a simple query- I have heard that for SSC of stage 1 we should refer to state board books. IS this true? If yes do you know from where these books can be arranged(govt doesn't sell them in normal shops i think)? And which classes have more weight age in social(6,7,8 or 9 and 10) ? @Aaron Jerry Ninan @Thomas Jacob @Rishabh Bhatnagar @Satwik Banchhor
