Preparation Tips

Start with a daily timed routine: solve 30–40 questions using sectional practice, then switch to full-length mocks to improve speed. Focus first on high-scoring areas like Arithmetic and Reasoning, but don’t neglect English and Odia grammar—short questions can become easy marks with practice. Since there is no negative marking, attempt all questions, but maintain accuracy by revising formulas and common grammar rules. Finally, review wrong answers category-wise to avoid repeat errors.
