Read the Question Carefully

Don’t hurry while answering. Be very cautious when marking the questions to know what exactly is asked and that you select the desired option.

Manage time effectively

Poor time management leads to mistakes and negative marking. Practice mocks regularly to avoid this scenario.

Avoid Flukes

Don’t blindly guess the answer. If you don't know the answer, leave it rather than getting your marks reduced.
