There is no negative marking. The primary step would be to pen down a detailed topic wise syllabus and paper pattern and then to plan a strategy accordingly. One of the prerequisites is to prepare a thorough timetable by distributing topics with respect to time. This would help in covering the syllabus easily.
When the candidates appear for the tests, they must make it a ritual to analyse their errors and to work on them. Continue Reading in App. Next Post. More from testbook. No more posts found!
