1. Focus on aimed position that is to be achieved
Aspirants should first aim for one competition they want to crack. Applying for several posts at a time creates a lot of confusion about what should be done and what shouldn’t.

Time based goals will help you know how much time you need and how to prepare for the exam. You must consider a few points while making a timetable such as fix a time for study, don’t study more at a stretch, take short breaks in between, and more importantly – give more time for the difficult subjects.
3. More focus on concepts
Focus on understanding the concepts throughout your preparation. Do not adopt rote learning technique. Understanding helps you to remember the concepts for a very long period of time. Moreover, with a clear understanding of the concepts, you can comfortably handle questions related to those concepts. You can also create your memory tips or interesting acronyms to remember formulae or equations or difficult terminologies. You should always make your own short notes in your own way, as they help you big time to revise a few days before the exam.

Last but not the least, candidates should have confidence upon themselves. Several students get nervous at the time of exam, which breaks their concentration and hampers their thinking power. Try to avoid negative vibes and stay focused. Little lankness can put all your hard work in vein.
