• High Weightage Topics: Prioritize high-weightage topics for the last-minute revision to keep the concept fresh in your memory.
• Memory-Based Questions: You can use memory-based questions from the previous shift for revision, as the concepts are usually repeated.
• Time Management: Make a roadmap of how you are going to attempt the paper. Like solving first the easy ones, which can be solved in 30-40 seconds, then move to moderate, then to difficult problems. And allocating subject-wise time based on your strength and command of that particular subject.
• Stay Calm & Confident: Get proper sleep to keep yourself active and fresh.
