You can prepare for this exam in a month by using the following expert tips:
1. Solve previous year's NCHMCT question papers to know which areas require more focus from you.
2. Gather limited study material that you can cover in a month; for instance, if you are preparing for the reasoning section, you need to refer to a good book like R. S. Agrawal.
3. In one month, you need to study important concepts on the syllabus and revise them multiple times.
4. Complete at least 15 mock tests during this time period to improve your exam accuracy.
5. You must prioritize English so that you can perform well in both the exam and the interview. Try to devote a minimum of 10 hours to study and practice as much as you can to pass the NCHMCT with one month of preparation.
