It is advisable to schedule specific days and times to review the materials and topics.
Mock Test
As it is said that practice makes a man perfect, it is very much important for an aspirant to regularly appear for mock test in order to get an idea of questions likely to be asked in the examination. The mock test will not only help aspirants get familiar with the examination pattern, but it will also help them manage time effectively in the exam. The aspirant needs to focus more on those subjects they are weak at. It will help them excel in the test.
A big NO to Social Media
Last but not the least is to say a big no to Social Media. Social Media is one of those friends who is always willing to distract us from studying. Once you take a 15 min break for WhatsApp and Facebook, there's no coming back. You will end up spending a long stretch of time on social media, thus disrupting your entire study cycle and schedule. Therefore, it is very much important to stay away from social media throughout your preparations.
