Ensure regular revision of each topic in INI CET 2021 syllabus. One can choose different combinations for revision of topics, like hard and lengthy with small and interesting ones and so on.
Focus more on clinical section
As INI CET 2021 is PG level exam, candidates should prepare all topics of MBBS course thoroughly.

They should check last year's INI CET 2021 question paper to get an idea about the type of questions and their difficulty level. As INI CET 2021 exam was conducted for the first time last year, candidates can check the last 3 year’s question papers of PG exams of AIIMS, JIPMER, and PGIMER as well. That would strengthen your preparation for the exam.
Take good care of your health
Health is considered the topmost priority for everyone and one should not do anything that will pose risk to their health especially at this time when the INI CET 2021 exam is a month away.
