It depends on the exam that you're planning to appear for. In general, it is better to start your prep as early as possible, at least 8 months before the final exam is tentatively scheduled to take place. This will provide you enough time to cover the entire exam syllabus, practice last year papers and do a thorough revision of the important topics to increase your chances of doing well and getting shortlisted for admission at top colleges.
