Study Tips

For Theory Exam

Score Maximum

  1. Practice Programs Daily: Write at least 2 programs daily
  2. Solve Output Questions: 80% students make mistakes here
  3. Master SQL: Easiest marks - practice 50 queries
  4. Revise OOP Concepts: Inheritance types, access specifiers
  5. Previous Papers: Solve minimum 5 years

For Practical Exam

Common Mistakes

  • Not writing complete #include statements
  • Forgetting return 0; in main()
  • Syntax errors in class definitions
  • Not closing files after operations
  • Incorrect SQL syntax

Important Programs to Master

Must-Know Programs

  1. Class with constructor and destructor
  2. Inheritance (all types)
  3. Operator overloading (++, +, ==)
