Common Mistakes Students Make While Taking Mock Tests
| Mistake | Why it Hurts Your Score | Simple Solution |
| Skipping Analysis | You will likely repeat the same errors in the next test. | Review every answer. Spend as much time analysing the test as you did taking it. |
| Score Obsession | High scores can cause overconfidence; low scores cause panic. | Focus on learning. Treat every mock as a lesson. Do not let the bad results demotivate you. |
| Ignoring Weak Areas | Sticking to "easy" topics feels good but won't help you improve. | Face the hard topics. Dedicate extra study hours to sections where you consistently lose marks. |
| Ignoring the Timer | Taking breaks or extra time makes your practice unrealistic. | Clock in. Sit for the full 2.5 hours without interruptions to build exam stamina. |
| Blind Guessing | Note: B-MAT usually has no negative marking. | Smart Guessing. Even without penalties, don't just click randomly. Use logic to eliminate wrong options first. |
