# Before going to bed, read 1–2 chapters from the NCERT biology textbook. If the previous textbook has too many notes and marks, buy a new textbook and freshly mark the important points.
# In the case of information-rich chapters like Animalia and Plantae, create a table of names, characteristics, and examples for each Phylum. Revise this table daily before solving a full-length mock test.
