  • General Knowledge
  • Comprehension
  • Computer and Business Fundamentals

Jot down formulae or tricks that you come across during preparation. To tackle the Comprehension and Verbal Reasoning section, start reading newspapers, magazines, etc. Reading data-heavy passages in less time increases the chances of mistakes so practice reading such passages from the beginning of exam preparation. Strengthen your grammar and vocabulary to ace these sections.

Q:   When should I start preparing for OJEE?
A:

Aspirants should start preparing for the OJEE exam at least six months before the test date.  This duration will be enough to complete the OJEE syllabus thoroughly and practice ample number of mock tests. The OJEE exam is similar to other MBA entrance exams so if a candidate has appeared for any other MBA exam before OJEE, they need to only do exam based preparation and focus on exam-specific mock tests. OJEE 2026 exam will likely be conducted in the second week of May 2026.

The Analytical Reasoning section assesses the students’ analytical skills. It is important to understand the pattern of the questions and know the formulae by heart. Also, find out ways to solve Analytical Reasoning questions through shortcuts for you would not like to spend too much time solving puzzles. Join online study groups to meet mentors and peers. They will be of great help in finding out tricks and shortcuts.
