CUET UG 2022 Last Minute Preparation Tips

On the last date before the exam, there is not much to prepare. The day should be focused on revision and making the exam day arrangements. However, here we bring some of the preparation tips for those who would be appearing for the CUET UG 2022 Phase 2 exam.

Revision: Revise the core subjects or your notes along with the selected language to brush up on the basic concepts and the questions and answers. Based on the CUET 2022 analysis of the first phase, the exam was of easy to moderate difficulty level and questions were entirely NCERT-based. Hence, you must revise from the NCERT textbooks or your Board exam revision notes which is in line with the CUET UG 2022 syllabus.

No mock test before the exam day: It is advised by the experts to not take a mock test a day before the CUET UG 2022 exam date. However, those with exams scheduled for later dates should take at least a couple of mock tests before their exam. This will not only help in revision but will also help in finalising the test-taking strategy. You can also go through their previously taken mock tests with a high score to revise the answer-solving method and shortcuts.

Decide the exam-taking strategy: If you have not decided on the exam-taking strategy, it is high time to do so. All you have to do is to chalk out the strategy to attempt the exam. Since there would be no section-wise fixed duration, you must be careful to allocate your time for each section of the test. You may decide the section-wise order of taking the test based on your convenience and comfort. It is advisable that you start with the areas of your strength followed by not-so-strong areas. This will help boost your confidence. You should also plan on the number of questions to attempt in order to fulfil the CUET UG cutoff criteria.

Do not start any new topics: At this stage, it is futile to start any new topic or chapter. You would not get enough time to complete it, in terms of conceptual understanding or practice. Hence, if you have not started a particular topic or chapter yet, or are unable to get a grip over it, then it is advised that you do not attempt those areas at all.

Stay healthy and relaxed: There is no use in stressing over the exam right before the exam date. Be confident in your preparation and your skills. To maintain composure, you may listen to some music of your favourite genre or watch motivational videos or exam day tips, which will not only help you exude confidence but will relax your mind as well.
