Easy Tips to crack DU JAT 2022: Know How to Prepare
Candidates appearing for DU JAT 2022 can check important preparation tips to obtain a good score in the entrance exam.
DU JAT exam is expected to be conducted in the first week of August. NTA is yet to release the examination schedule and DU JAT registration window. The exam schedule has seen a shift owing to the second wave of COVID-19. With the shift in the events, candidates have more time to prepare for DU JAT 2022. The entrance exam facilitates admission to professional undergraduate programmes at DU JAT colleges. Most of the aspirants will be in the last leg of the DU JAT preparation. In addition to more time for DU JAT preparation, aspirants will not have class 12th board exams for the current session; thus, they can devote all their time for the entrance exam for BBA admission. In this article, we will share easy tips that will help DU JAT 2022 aspirants prepare efficiently for the entrance exam.
Easy Tips to crack DU JAT exam
Practice and Evaluate
You must aim to take at least 10 to 12 mocks when in the last month of the exam. With more time, candidates can take more mock tests and improve their speed as well as accuracy to take the exam. It is equally important to set reasonable targets. If you aim to take 30 mocks in one month, you are likely to lose out on quality time to evaluate your performance after each session. So, if you spend two hours solving a mock test, you should invest another two hours to assess your progress. Solving mocks and previous years’ DU JAT question paper would give you a real sense of taking the DU JAT and help you build strategies for the final day.
Keep Faith and Stay Focused
It is equally important to have faith in your abilities. Aspirants tend to get jittery in the last few days to the exam but one who keeps calm and puts in sustained efforts is likely to excel in this exam. In case, you have not touched upon an important topic out of fear or confusion, you should reach out to your peers or mentors to get it sorted. Also strive to remain focused and stay away from any kind of distraction, which may jeopardise your chances in the exam.
