Last Week Preparation Tips for SET 2025

By the last week of SET preparation, students must have covered the complete SET syllabus. It is imperative to dedicate the last week of preparation to revision and mock tests. Do not focus on starting a fresh topic in the last week of preparation. Rather, utilize the time left for optimal performance on the exam day. Here are a few of last week's preparation tips for SET 2025:

  • Daily Revision: Revising the complete SET syllabus in the last week is not feasible. Therefore, analyse the previous years’ SET question papers and revise the important topics from which the majority of questions are most likely to be asked. Be thorough with the concepts, theorems and formulae. Revisit the notes that you must have prepared during the last few months of the SET preparation. Jot down the important pointers that you come across during the revision so that the concepts are etched in your mind.
  • Attempting Mock Tests: Practicing mock tests is crucial in any exam preparation. They give you an insight into the question paper and the SET exam pattern. Make sure that you attempt at least one mock test in the last week of preparation while keeping in mind the time duration of the exam. This will help you boost your confidence and also in recognizing the strong and weaker areas. Work on the weaker areas and capitalize on your strengths. Do not stress if you do not score too well in the SET mock test. Attempting mock tests will help you in increasing speed and accuracy as well.
  • Analyse the Previous Years’ Question Papers: Spend at least an hour analyzing the SET previous years’ question papers to understand the marking scheme and to know which the important topics in the SET exam on which the majority of the questions are usually based. This will also help you in understanding the difficulty level of the questions asked in the exam.
  • Do Not Start A Fresh Topic: Do not stress if you were not able to cover some chapter or topic during your preparation. Do not start a fresh topic in the last week of preparation as it will lead you being confused and ill-prepared on the topic. Focus on what you have prepared and capitalize on it.
  • Prepare for the Exam Day: In the last week, make an exam day strategy in advance. Have a good eight-hour sleep, have a healthy breakfast and keep all the documents required at the SET exam centre. No amount of preparation is enough if you are stressed on the exam day.
  • Relax: Be confident and relaxed. Do not stress too much about the performance in the SET exam that you end up marking the wrong answer and loose marks. Indulge in activities that will help you calm and freshen your mind.

IPMAT is usually considered a bit more difficult than SET, as IPMAT exam has advanced mathematics and is calculation intensive. The exam also have a sectional time limit. But, SET is easier in terms of difficulty, does not have negative marking or sectional timings.
