• Understand MAHA TET Syllabus: Go through syllabus and make a list of topic under each section: Child Development & Pedagogy, Languages, Mathematics, Environmental Studies (for Paper I) / Mat & Science or Social Studies (for Paper II). Know the number of questions from each section. Also, check MAHA TET exam pattern and marking scheme.
• Create Maharashtra TET Study Plan: Divide schedule into phases, like first 4 to 6 weeks for syllabus, next 2 to 3 weeks for revision and last 1 to 2 weeks for practicing mock tests. 
• Prioritise weak areas: If candidates are weak in any section, they must give extra time to those. Keep rest breaks, maintain health and mental well‐being.
• Focus on Conceptual Understanding + Pedagogy: Understand theories, developmental milestones, learning & pedagogy methods relevant to Indian classroom context. For subject‐knowledge (Maths, Science, Social Studies), focus on clarity of basic concepts. For Environmental Studies (Paper I), cover social, science and environmental topics at primary level. Whereas, for languages, practice grammar, comprehension, essay/letter writing (as applicable), vocabulary.
• Time Management: Since MAHA TET is in MCQ format and candidates have 150 questions to finish in 150 minutes, pace is about 1 minute per question. 
• Solve previous years’ question papers (if available) or sample sets; this will familiarise you with question style and timing. After each test, analyse performance and work on weaker sections. 
• Revision: In final 2 to 3 weeks, move to revision: go through notes, important formulae, pedagogical frameworks and key facts. Regular short revision of languages (grammar, vocabulary) should be done.
