> do not play during the morning or very late in the evening. play as soon as you get home from school, 10 blitzes a day or 3 rapid. late at night or early in the morning, do tactics if you have time. I think you will be able to have a very good level while remaining a good student
Thank you CSKA_Moscou for that advice!

In most of the schools in India, chess isn't much promoted. Only two or three school events in a year, no more than that. Still I am the best player from my school.

Then focus fully on school. There is a big chance, that you will lose any interest in chess over the next few years. But what you learn at school, will be helpful for the rest of your life.

When I finished my family and school duties and I spare time for chess I found that what I desired most was not playing all the time. I found if I studied tactics for 30-45 mins a week 3x15 minutes and some rapid games a week or blitz was enough. During this time I increased my rating faster in 4 weeks than all of that game analysis I got caught up with. Not saying that is perfect but here are some ideas to think about.
Thanks swarminglocusts!

@hisokaxhunter and @sheckley666 , That's what many teachers and coaches say to me, that once my study is over, I can play as much as want.
have a priority list according to yourself then go ahead with plan making
@SimpleIsTheNewComple I liked what swarminglocusts said, family first, school second, and chess third.
i'm also 13 just play whenever i get time but not in the morning
