Some tips for prelims

First thing(Disclaimer)-- device your own strategy in exam hall based on your strengths. Below suggestions are to give some idea, and should not be followed strictly.


1. Attempt as many questions as possible. It's difficult to qualify if we attempt less than 50% because most of them will go wrong.
2. Attempt a question even if you are less than 50% sure. have confidence in self.
3. Check time so that you are finishing questions as per time. (30% questions finished by completion of 25% time)
4. Marking with black pen.-- Quickly read instructions to get idea of num. of questions and marking method. Once time starts, quickly see different q's to understand the toughness. It's better to mark on OMR sheet as we read than to postpone the questions, except for 4-5. We may not get time later.
5. Quesions are mostly conceptual and general in nature. So, don't worry if you are not able to mugup few things or have not covered few things. You can answer many by recalling from some vague memories.
