Examinations are an important aspect of every student’s life – be it in school or in college. Examinations are conducted to assess the knowledge, skills and retention ability of the students. Students will be motivated to achieve more, learn more and understand more when they write their exams. Months of training, preparation, practice, tips and strategies are required to score well in the examinations. Students need to invest a lot of time and efforts in order to get good grades. They need to look into their notes, textbooks and previous year question papers as well as take the guidance of teachers for excelling in their exams.
Writing an exam is not the only step towards achieving success. It is equally important for the students to analyse their scores and plan strategies accordingly, that is whether they need to improve the scores of the subjects which they might be very weak in or focus more on scoring even better than they would have in their previous exams.

4. Sharing of Documents
Teachers can share important documents like notes, important chapters which have high weightage in the exams, previous year question papers, assignments, projects, etc. on the portals of the students using school management software. All such documents uploaded will prove to be extremely useful to the students in their overall strategy for the exam preparation.
