# Computer Organization and Architecture

Total Days If complete Newbie and Never Started, Don't Know Anything :- **4.5 Days.** _[2 days before exam month and 2.5 days of exam month]_

**Goal - Score More than 60 /80 Marks in final exam [This Subject is to obtain marks & increase percentage]**

## Chapter Plan

Chapter 5 All[1 Day] [Finish Before Exam Month]  
Chapter 6 Mapping Technique [0.5 Days] [Finish Before Exam Month]  

**At Exam Month**  
Chapter 1,8 [1st Day Evening + 2nd Day Morning]  
Chapter 2,4,5 [2nd Day][Medium + Medium + Hard]  
Chapter 3,6,7 [3rd Day][ Hard +  Medium + Easy]  

> **To guarantee to pass, starting at the exam month is not a good way to pass the exam** as you always run into the probability that from the chapters you have studied hard questions or unexpected question might come.

> Concerning the theory the notes are enough and also for the Numerical of chapter 5 can be understood easily from the note and youtube videos. Notes by Hari Aryal will be enough for whole subjects

Wake up at 5 o clock on the exam day and then start revising it and aim to finish it until 10 and the second revision from 11 to 12
