Daily Revision
Revising the complete KMAT syllabus in the last week is not feasible. So, list down the important topics from which the questions are most likely to be asked by analyzing the previous years’ question papers. By the last week, you must have been prepared well and would be thorough with the concepts, theorems and formulae. Revisit the concepts and jot down notes while revising so that these concepts are etched in your mind. Focus on your strong suits and practice the weaker areas.
KMAT Karnataka exam will be held in the home-based remote proctored mode. Candidates can now take the exam from the safe environment of their homes. They do not have to choose the exam city and visit any KMAT exam centre in order to take the exams. They can fill the KMAT application form online and take the remote proctored online exam through the link given to the candidates on the exam day or as mentioned in their KMAT admit card. This year, the exam will likely be held in the month of November 2024.
The KMAT exam was earlier conducted in paper-based test mode. But due to the COVID-19 outbreak, in 2021 and 2022, the exam was conducted in internet-based test mode.
Attempt One Final Mock Test
Practice at least one KMAT mock test in the last week before the exam keeping in mind the sectional and overall timings of the KMAT exam. This will help you boost your confidence and help in preparing you for the exam day. Do not base your preparation completely on the mock test. Note the areas and questions where you have not scored well and practice them separately. This will also give you an idea of what not to do in the exam. The level of the KMAT question paper is easy to moderate. Hence, do not stress if you do not score well in the KMAT mock test. Candidates must also appear for the official KMAT mock test which is scheduled to be conducted on November 1, 2023, and November 2, 2023.

Go Through Previous Years’ KMAT Question Papers

Do Not Start a New Topic

- Set your score to meet the cutoff for the college to which you want to apply.
