1. Read the syllabus for 10-20 times in 20 days. Be familiar with the topics, syllabus thoroughly
2. Now decide which topics, you can leave. Focus on what not to do
3. Analyze the previous year papers and note down the repeated concepts examiner oftenly asking again &
again.
4. Prepare list of most probable concepts and focus on those concepts particularly.
5. Arrange study material, books, question books for thorough studies.
6. Preparation style should be very basic i.e. question based theory
7. Follow OBES (open Book Evolution System) without hesitation to clear the concepts, where ever, even
minor problem exists.
8. This is not theory exam, so try to attempt maximum Direct/factual questions through MCQs. For scientific
Aptitude based Analysis/application question you need to practice move and more MCQs as these are easy
to solve with a little tricks/logics.
9. Revise repeated concepts thrice thorough MCQs
10. Do not over attempt, keep check. Do not perform experiment in exam as it can lead us to negative marks.
Hence failure. May be our attempt is good and we are about to qualify the exam so. In examination read
only those MCQs which you have prepared trough you consistent preparation. It will save your time.
11. Always attempt maximum marks MCQs first.
12. If any MCQs in taking more than two minutes then leave this question and move to other one you can
attempt.
13. Count the marks of attempted MCQ, if its in above cut off then recheck and revise you answers. If you are
satisfied then you can look only for 1-3 more MCQs to attempt. But beware of negative marks.

Not many students would admit to enjoying taking exams or writing essays, but if you want to get through the exam,
they’re an ordeal you have to survive. So we’ve worked out how to make the whole thing a little less stressful. We’ve
persuaded four academics from a range of subject areas to tell us the top 10 things students get wrong in exams and
coursework. This is what they’ve told us:
Panic and procrastination - Sometimes a task can feel so overwhelming that it’s difficult to begin, says Bansal
Academy Procrastination takes over and you just can’t seem to get anything done. The bare white page is a formidable
foe when it stares back at you, untouched, from the library desk. Try not to panic, protect and manage your preparation
time, and don’t put off getting started.
Lack of analysis - It can be tempting to parrot everything you know when writing essays and exam answers. But to
demonstrate your understanding you should engage critically with your source material. Always assume an informed
reader — they do not need a plot summary or biographies of key figures. Read through the marking scheme used by
your examiner. You will notice some very telling words and phrases attached to the highest marks.
Poor planning - In exams it’s vital that you don’t jump the gun. Take the first five to 10 minutes to read through the
paper and plan the questions you’re going to answer in order of how confident you feel in that subject area, says
Bhavik Patel, lecturer in physical and analytical chemistry at University of Brighton. Make sure you secure the marks
on the questions that you find easiest to answer first, before attempting questions that are more difficult. The latter
often make you lose confidence and time during exam conditions.
Not reading the question properly - When revising, students often rehearse answers in their head. Although we
don’t deliberately intend to catch them out in exams, we do set questions that requires them to think and reflect under
timed conditions. But instead students will often pick up key words in the question and write out a rehearsed response.
“This can be avoided by taking some time to reflect upon the question, rather than seeing that as wasted time and
rushing to fill the pages.
Focusing on word count - In both exam responses and coursework, students are often more concerned with
quantity rather than quality.
Insufficient reading around a subject - During revision time, students are too selective in what they choose to read,
selecting one or two books and remembering as much from those as possible. What comes across in a good essay is
confidence, and this can only be achieved by demonstrating plenty of reading on a subject, so that you can be prepared
for any question that you come across. This also requires giving yourself plenty of time to read, and not leaving it until
a few days before an exam or assignment.
Regurgitating in-class or lecture material - In preparation , we are looking for excitement and originality of
thought backed up by evidence and we don’t want you to take our formulations as gospel truth, Challenge – and think
for yourself.
Over-Generalization - Always make sure your statements are specific and show self-awareness
Carelessness - Getting characters’ names or other basic factual details wrong just smacks of not caring. If you don’t
care enough to do this correctly when you’re paying to be at university, what will an employer think when he or she is
paying you?
