Exam Fever to Exam Favor: Board Students Get ‘Smart Study’ Secrets at Vatar High School; Dr. Rahul Tandel Decodes the 2026 Topper Formula!
Board Exam Guidance Seminar: ‘Enjoy The Exam’ at Vatar
In a powerful move to transform academic pressure into peak performance, the S.S.B.D. Desai High School in Vatar village, Valsad, hosted an inspiring educational seminar titled ‘Enjoy The Exam’. As the 2026 Board Exams approach, this initiative aimed to strip away the fear surrounding Class 10 and 12 finals, replacing it with strategy and self-belief. Students were taught that a board exam is not a “mental burden” but a “festival of knowledge” that marks the beginning of their professional journeys.
The Expert’s Secret: Hard Work vs. Smart Work
The seminar featured Dr. Rahul Tandel, a distinguished Professor from the R.K. Desai College of Education, Vapi, as the keynote speaker. Dr. Tandel shared a blueprint for success that shifted the focus from rote learning to logical preparation.
- The Smart Strategy: He emphasized that while hard work is the foundation, “Smart Work”—understanding weightage, patterns, and time management—is what secures the top ranks.
- The Art of the Paper: Students received live demonstrations on how to present answers effectively, the importance of legible handwriting, and how to utilize the first 15 minutes of the exam for strategic reading.
- Memory & Focus: Practical tips were shared on creating an ideal study environment to maximize concentration and long-term memory retention.
Mental Resilience: Lessons from the Principal
Dr. Nikhildhai Patel, Principal of Vatar High School, highlighted the psychological toll of the “Result Pressure” often placed on students.
- Atmosphere of Support: The seminar was designed to provide a “mental shield,” helping students stay calm under the intense scrutiny of the board year.
- Teacher Involvement: The entire school staff collaborated to ensure students could interact freely with Dr. Tandel, clearing doubts that often go unaddressed in standard classroom settings.
Rural Students, Urban Resources
This guidance program is part of a larger trend in Valsad district to bring high-quality, expert counseling to rural schools. By hosting Dr. Rahul Tandel, Vatar High School ensured that its students have the same “competitive edge” as their urban counterparts in Vapi or Valsad city. The positive energy at the end of the session suggested that the “fear of the board” had indeed been replaced by a “hunger for success.”
