# Multimedia System

Total Days If Complete Newbie and Never Started, Don't Know Anything **2 Very Chill Days** [0 Days Before Exam Months]

Goal - Scoring Above 65/80 in the board

## Plan Overview
- **Aim to start**: 1st day evening or (compulsory) 2nd day morning
- **Revision**: Start at 5 PM the day before exam, then wake up at 5 AM and study until 11:30 AM (×3 minimum)


> This is an easy subject to study with around 12–13 main questions, which are very easy to understand and remember.

> As these topics are conceptual and easy, I recommend YouTube videos to learn each exam topic. Videos can be finished in 1.5 days, but keep the book handy since videos don't always match theory exactly.

> While revising, follow the old question or Important Question List closely, as the notes contain many topics not asked frequently.

> **Revision tip**: Review the notes with old question solutions, then rewatch the YouTube video if confused.

> **Note:**
> - The "good note" with chapter-wise solutions starts on page 43 — jump straight there.
> - Add **LZW Decompression** as a bonus topic (8 marks, first asked in 2077 Chaitra).
