Preparation tips:
1- Know the syllabus.
2- Try to solve the Previous year's questions.
3- Attempt more Mock tests and analyze yourself.
4- Make a short note for Revision.
5- Eat healthily, and sleep properly. I hope this will help you.

1. Review all the main topics as much as you can before the examination.
2. Solve the ESE full-length mock test and the previous year's question paper.
3. Effective time management is crucial in these last months of preparation. Time yourself section-wise for both Paper 1 and Paper 2.
4. Allocate time for every section and try to complete each section in that time frame only. Don't overburden yourself. Recreational breaks are a necessity to refresh your mind, so try to take some breaks in between study times.
5. Take regular sleep and proper care of your diet because, without rest and a healthy diet, your brain won't be able to focus correctly.
6. Avoid guessing, If you are uncertain about a question, then it's better to leave it and solve the ones in which you are confident.
7. Short-Cut Techniques: Try to solve numerical problems using short techniques rather than traditional methods to save time in exams. Beware of marks per question, negative marking, and exam duration while attempting the ESE Exam. I hope this will help you.
