You have asked a very good question.
In addition to a regular school curriculum, children need other skills and personality traits to succeed in life and in their careers.

My Son 13 years, is in 8th std ,ICSE student, When he was in 7th std he was doing good in his MCQ pattern ,But when he entered in 8th std he's become a average student academically, From 8th std school has started taking written Exams of 40marks Terminals,& its found he's not good at learning the answers by heart, Till the 7th std there were no written exams and from 8th std regular written exams has started ,its looks difficult for him to by heart the answers in History,Geography,Science,Hindi, subjects, So how to solve this issue.
Ans: Hi Abhijeet

This is a very usual case. Whenever a child shifts from one method to another, it takes some time to upgrade himself to the new pattern. MCQ test pattern and Written test pattern are different. Both patterns require different skills.

In short, your son is struggling to adapt to the new format of written exams in 8th grade. This shift from MCQs to written exams requires different study techniques, such as active recall, effective note-taking, and practice writing.

To help him improve, you can:
1) Encourage him to use active recall techniques like flashcards and quizzes.
2) Teach him effective note-taking methods like the Cornell method or mind mapping.
3) Help him practice writing essays and join a writing group if possible.
4) Assist him in creating a study schedule and breaking down assignments into smaller tasks.

At last, keep patient, every child is different. Give him some time to adjust to the new pattern. Your motion and support are much needed at this stage and that too without showing any panic on your face.

If you are dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.
If satisfied, please like and follow me.
Thanks

I am having a home loan of 12 lac for 20 years @8.7p.a. roi. I am about to have estimated 4500 Surplus every month out of which I will invest rs 1200 in sip with 1% step up every year and rest in principal. My query is 1-Please suggest the fund names for excellent growth to recover all the interest and principal(if possible). 2- Bank has committed to review and revise roi every year based on my cibil. I want to get this statement verified from the expert 3-My Cibil score is 790 at present. I am a regular user of credit card, pay dues timely, my average monthly bill is 2000/- only. and as told above I am going to have a home loan. I want my cibil score 825. How much time will it take to increase my cibil by 35 points.
Ans: Hello;

Your home loan of 12 L with 8.7%(considered fixed for calculation sake)and 20 year tenure is expected to have an interest outgo of 13.36 L

If you start a SIP of 1200 with 1% top-up each year then it will yield you a corpus of 14.55 L, after 20 years,thereby covering your interest outgo

If you want principal also to be covered for recovery through your investment then you must make a SIP of 2100 with 1% top-up each year which will yield you a corpus of around 25.56 L, after 20 years, thus exceeding your entire loan outgo(principal+ interest) of 25.36 L.

Here I have considered moderate return of 13% and recommend you to invest in PPFAS flexicap fund.

CIBIL score of above 750 is considered excellent and bank should offer you best possible ROI. Do check with other banks for best offer.

CIBIL Score calculation depends on:
Repayment history(35%)
Credit Utilisation (30%)
Credit history(15%)
Credit Mix(10%)
New Credit(10%)

My opinion is you are already in the excellent cibil rating category and should get best ROI from the bank.

CIBIL score increase happens over a period of time based on positive development on aforementioned criteria.
