Start with section-wise timed practice: attempt ~10 questions (about 24 minutes) to build speed before full mocks. Focus daily on comprehension and communication by practicing short passages and identifying key ideas quickly. For quantitative reasoning and data interpretation, solve mixed sets and review mistakes using explanations. Revise core ICT and higher education system concepts regularly, then take at least 2–3 full-length practice tests to improve accuracy and time management.
