Start with a quick diagnostic attempt to identify weak topics in Arithmetic and Reasoning, then revise concepts using short notes and formula sheets. Practice previous-year-style mixed quizzes to improve question selection and accuracy, and keep a strict timer to train for the 120-minute limit. Since there is no negative marking, attempt all questions you can solve confidently first, then return to moderate ones. Review explanations daily to convert mistakes into recurring-safe strategies.
