KEAM 2019 Exam day tips

It is advisable that you visit your exam centre a day or two in advance and since you have a weekend right before KEAM, consider figuring out how you would go to the centre and what exactly is your exam centre’s location. This will save you from any tension on the exam day as far as reaching the right exam venue is concerned.

Reach the venue 30 minutes before the exam time. If due to some reason you report to the exam centre half an hour after the commencement of the exam then you would not be allowed to sit for the examination.

Read the instructions on the examination paper carefully before attempting the questions.

Try and solve questions which you know or find easy/average right at the beginning, this will boost your confidence level.

If you get stuck in a section/ some questions, then do not panic and leave these questions and attempt the rest of the paper. When you complete your exam, revisit these questions and calmly try to solve them.

Work towards optimal utilisation of your time. Fix a time duration wherein you need to complete a set of questions. This will help you to complete your exam in time so that you will have some time to revise.
