Preparation Tips

Start by revising primary-level concepts and NCERT-based fundamentals for EVS and Mathematics, then focus on PYQ-style practice for each section. Use time-bound attempts of 20–30 minutes per section to build speed for the full 120-minute paper. Since there is no negative marking, attempt all questions but review concepts where you repeatedly lose time or accuracy. Finally, maintain a mistake notebook for recurring grammar/EVS concepts and revise it before your next test.
