Using the Exam Gaps Strategically
The MP Board schedule spans about 23 days for Class 10 and 31 days for Class 12. Most subjects have 1-3 day gaps between papers.
Short gap (1 day): Revise only from your short notes and formula sheets. No new reading. Focus on the most important 3-4 chapters.
Medium gap (2-3 days): Day 1: full revision of all chapters. Day 2: one practice paper. Day 3 (if available): light revision and rest.
Long gap (4+ days): Use the extra days for your weakest subject overall, even if it is not the next exam.
