Tips to Read the Newspaper for AILET 2026 Preparation
Candidates can follow the tips mentioned below for developing an effective newspaper reading habit for AILET 2026 preparation:
1. Make a schedule for Newspaper Reading - Scheduling is the ideal approach for newspaper reading as you need to have sufficient time to analyse and interpret headlines while reading it. Moreover, with this approach, candidates will be able to retain current affairs topics.
2. Highlighting and Making Notes - Another helpful trick is highlighting the important news in the newspaper itself, and making notes with key details on a regular-basis. Making notes will be more organised and strategic, and candidates will be able to find recent news at one place. Also, note down new words and interesting terms for enhancing vocabulary.
3. Follow up of key events - Candidates should also keep a track of all important constitutional as well as national/ international events that are currently ongoing in the country so as to know minute details. Daily newspaper reading with devotion will save their time. Also, if candidates do not adopt this strategy, then it will be a hassle for them in the last few days to read up all current affairs and general knowledge (of past year at least), and it will be difficult to retain information. With this follow-up approach of reading the newspaper, candidates would not have any confusion regarding any topic during the revision stage.
4. Categorising news - A newspaper carries information regarding all subjects; therefore, it is important that candidates categorise each news with respect to the subjects of the AILET question paper. The idea is to consume only relevant information in a planned manner, or candidates will be drained in consuming the news itself. Therefore, keeping in mind the subjects of the AILET question paper, candidates have to categorise the newspaper in Reading Comprehension/ English Language, Current Affairs and General Knowledge, and Logical Reasoning.
