The following suggestions may help you-
- Start thinking about a
strategy.
- You need to play to your
strengths.
- You need to learn to skip
questions.
- You have to identify the
areas you are not so comfortable with.
- It is advisable to experiment
in your practice tests.
- Learn to master multiple
choice questions.
- Multiple choice questions
(MCQs) are very different from subjective questions. They provide for a
lot of intelligent guesswork. So one needs to consciously ask while
analysing tests, "Is there a way to answer this question using the
choices?"
- Time management holds the key
in all entrance exams.
- The core value of effective
time management is focusing on the right things.
- Remember the '80:20 Rule'.
Usually 80 per cent of unfocussed efforts generate merely 20 per cent of
results meaning the rest of the 80 per cent results are attained with 20
per cent efforts only. Focus and effective time management can be critical
for your final score.
- Revise all the fundamental
concepts and identify and attempt as many types of questions as possible
in a given topic.
- Analyse the marking pattern
for the exams that you're appearing for.
- Negative marking means you
must select questions you think you can answer, with care. If the paper
does not have any negative marking, try and answer all questions, even if
you're not sure of the answer.
Maintainyour cool while taking the test. Remember there are many
questions that you can attempt. Do not get stuck at questions that take
inordinately long time. The best attempts are made by those who manage to read
through the entire paper. You can do that only if you master the art of test
taking. All the Best!
