AP ICET 2025: Last-Minute Preparation Tips
Revise tricky topics and formulas – Quick revision before the exam should be a high priority for the candidates. No matter how much hard work you put in for exam preparation, the result will rely on how well you have revised these topics. Candidates should make their revision plans well in advance. They can make a list of important topics, shortcut tricks, and formulas that need to revise ahead of the exam.
Avoid learning new topics – Covering a new topic in the last hour could lead to further confusion or even impede the confidence level of the candidate. Therefore, it is advised that the candidates should steer clear of such topics. They should rather focus on their strengths and revise the topics they have already covered.

| Slots | Timing |

Stay positive – A candidate needs to enter the examination hall with a positive frame of mind. Even if the question paper is difficult, candidates should devise a strategy without getting intimidated and should put in their best effort within the stipulated time.
Avoid comparisons with your peers- Candidates should avoid comparing their preparations with their peers, especially in the last few hours before the exam.

The best practice is to focus on self-assessment depending on your performance in mock tests, without drawing parallels.
