The first step to prepare for any exam is to find out the prescribed syllabus. For effective preparation, you need to study smartly. Identify your strong and weak points. Prioritize in such a manner that your strong areas become stronger and leave ample time to work on your weak areas. Don’t leave any topic untouched. The exam syllabus is vast, but time is limited. Make a timetable and stick to it fervently. Give more time to your weaker areas and the ones that have higher weightage in the exam. Solve as many MCQs as you can to get ample amount of practice.
