Good preparation is mostly planning. Students often study many hours but without a schedule, revision or tests, and the result does not match the effort. This page gathers our guides on planning, revision and exam strategy.

Start with the 90-day study plan. It splits preparation into three stages: foundation, practice, and mock tests with revision.
Five rules that work for most exams
1. Choose one main exam. Many exams share syllabus, so one focused plan is better than four half plans.
2. Fix honest daily hours. A four-hour plan you follow beats a ten-hour plan that breaks in three days.
3. Test yourself early. A first mock test shows your strong and weak subjects before you plan.
4. Revise on a schedule. Revisit a topic after 1, 3, 7 and 21 days.
5. Keep a mistakes notebook. Write each wrong answer and why it happened, then solve it again each week.
Where to go next
Use Study Material for notes, Practice for questions and tests, and Exams for exam-wise updates.
Frequently asked questions
Can I prepare while working or studying in college?
Yes. Plan four focused hours a day, keep Sunday for a mock test and its review, and use short free periods for revision.
How long does preparation take?
It depends on your starting level and the exam. A steady plan of three months can work if your basics are reasonably strong. A first test will tell you where you stand.
What if I miss a day?
Do not try to cover everything the next day. Continue with the next day's plan and use your weekly revision slot for the missed part.
Which subject should I study first each day?
Start with your weakest subject while you are fresh, and keep easier or favourite topics for later.
