Aspirants require preparing a timetable on what topics to cover when, which topics/subjects require high priority, and how much to cover on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. The benefit of having a daily study schedule is once you are finished with a task, you already know what is next on your schedule.
A proper and good time-table is very helpful s the candidate have to maintain a balance between his studies and other things. There should be breaks between long continuous study hours. They can follow “50/10 or 25/5 – Rule” (50 or 25 mins for study and 10 or 5 mins of break). You have to distribute your time according to your weakness and strengths. There should be proper time for study, food and sleep.
Students are advised to create a daily plan & while making a time schedule, special time slot should be provide for completing the syllabus of applied course. Revise the syllabus and content, attempt as many questions papers, mock tests and previous year papers for better preparation and time should given to all these steps of preparation wisely
5. Makes important & short Notes and revise them regularly
During studying basic texts books of previous classes or NCERT textbooks, students should make or prepare shorts and understandable notes of physics, chemistry, and Maths, which will be asked in entrance exam. Make easy notes by making Flow Charts, Diagrams, Tables and Posters etc. and stick them wherever possible and review them at least two times a day before sleeping.
There should be fixed revision slot of 1-3 hours in your time-table. Revision is a continuous process. You may think you have prepared a particular topic, chapter or subject perfectly but you won’t able be able to retain it unless you revise again and again.

The main benefit of giving mock tests is that the aspirants can analyze their performance in tests. They can check their mistakes, time spent on the individual question, section of exam or whole exam, and suggestions for improvements.
Students should try to crack mock tests or sample papers within a specific time slot. The general mistake made by most aspirants is that they never review what they have solved. Whenever you are solving a mock test, try to analyze the questions or topics you are facing problems with and the areas you are quick to solve. Develop good planning while solving the practice papers. 50% of the questions in the paper have a low difficulty level, so solve them first. Never solve the paper in a row and avoid the questions you face problems or difficulty.
