Amrit Amrit Before the exam, candidates should not take the stress. They should not learn new topics rather than revise the topics you have learned. Before one week of exam, revise all the topics candidates have studied. Solve sample papers and previous years’ question papers. Attempt mock tests to improve speed and accuracy.

Advice to future aspirants

Candidates should also give attention to their health and keep up their stamina. Study for two to three hours and sleep properly. Candidates must do smart study.
All the best
