Candidates have to opt for compensatory time at the time of filling out the application form. After the exam duration is over, the test will terminate automatically.

No, one month is not sufficient time to prepare for the WBJEE JECA. The WBJEE JECA syllabus is vast, and it's not possible to cover all the topics in one month. If you have been or are a BCA student, then it can be less challenging for you since most of the subjects of WBJEE JECA and BCA are similar. You are advised to study all the subjects and solve previous year WBJEE JECA question papers. Begin practising WBJEE JECA sample papers at least 1 or 2 months before the exam to become accustomed to the exam.

No, doing this can be one of the harmful decisions that you are going to make in your GATE preparation. Instead, give attention to all the topics and chapters equally. You can start with the high-weightage topics and chapters in GATE first, but also try to give at least an hour per day to go through the lower weightage topics. Look for what sort of questions are asked in previous years, whether they are theoretical or numerically-based. Prepare according to that. By doing this, you are exercising a balanced GATE preparation.
