One is often tempted to take up a mock tests as it seems an easy way to check preparation level, however, it can sometimes backfire if the score of that particular mock test isn’t satisfactory. It can directly affect the candidate’s confidence which is not good for the actual exam the next day.

This way you will have fresh memory of the key topics and will not require time to recall them during the exam.
