Start by taking a timed mock to identify your weak sections, then practice section-wise questions daily—especially Numerical and Reasoning for scoring speed. Focus on accuracy first (RBI-style question framing), then gradually increase speed using timed sets. Revise key grammar rules, common reasoning patterns, and frequently asked arithmetic concepts. Since there is no negative marking, attempt all questions you can solve and use elimination to improve chances.
