• Pay close attention to the instruction in every question. If it has a time limit, provide your response in the given time. If there are negative marking, be careful not to answer unless you are absolutely sure.

• Make each practise of yours a conscious one. Trying to do plenty of Practise Tests blindly is not going to help at all. Go for quality practise and more than that aim to always give it with a lot of presence of mind.

Capitalise on your strengths and work on your weak skills.

• Knowing your grey areas will help you work on them and improve.

• Have an understanding of questions you are comfortable with and the ones that make you a little distressed.

• Continuously challenge yourself.

• Silly mistakes like spelling errors or missing to listen to certain words or forgetting the instructions are a big no-no.

Be wise with your preparation and the materials you refer.

• Don't fall for over promising stuffs. Be realistic and try for yourself, the type of materials or practice methodology that makes you feel comfortable.

• If need be seek for professional advice online or offline. Get your doubts sorted as early as possible.

• To perfect any skill, you must persevere to put in effort.

• Slowly some skills will become your reflex and a habit. Be alert about them.

Each skill is inter-dependent. Prepare with diligence.
