------------------------------------------------
Reading questions completely is important to avoid silly mistakes. Human brain has a habit of seeing what they want to see particularly during a high pressure environment like an exam. Sometimes the last few words of a question changes everything. Read the problem statement carefully, underlying the important point and then solve the question
*In* *short* ...
๐น Don't solve immediately
-------------------------------------------
Don't fall into the trap of answering fast if you find an easy question. Read twice as few words may have two meanings and may have different answers.
*In* *short* ... You can't be successful if you can't handle pressure
๐น Enter complete data
----------------------------------
If you have habit of making silly mistake, enter all data or equation before solving it
*In* *short* ... More the hurry, more the problem
๐น Focus during solving question

Maximum students make errors right at the end of the problem so when you see the finish line, don't rush or take last steps for granted. Focus as you focused during the initial part of the question.
*In* *short* ... Never be in hurry, do everything quietly & calmly
๐น Recheck the answer
----------------------------------
If you are not sure about the answer, recheck the problem again. If you got adequate time, you can recheck all question
*In* *short* ... Be quick, but don't hurry
๐น Avoid new question
--------------------------------
While in the middle of the problem, don't try to solve the next one. Focus on one until you solve it or leave it for later.
*In* *short* ... Make everything is perfect
๐น Read all options
-----------------------------
Don't tick the answer till you read all the options. Options are usually set in a way to feel the first option as an answer. If you are confused between two option, re-read the question
*In* *short* ... Always remember, your focus determine your result
❇️ Time management
๐น Solve mock question paper
---------------------------------------------
Whenever you solve a mock question paper at home, solve it as your solving at examination center with time management
*In* *short* ... Ordinary students think merely of spending time, great students think of using it
๐นPlan a head
--------------------
Before going to the exam hall, plan how much time you will spend on each section as per paper pattern. If you had three subjects in a paper, decide how much time you will give to each section as per your strength and weakness. So you won't panic at the end of the exam and avoiding silly mistake
*In* *short* ... The best preparation for tomorrow is planning today
๐น Not keeping track of time ----------------------------------------------
If you don't keep track of time while solving paper will definitely create panic leading to silly mistakes at the end of the paper.
*In* *short* ... If you want to crack the exam, you need to become a master of minutes.
❇️ Mistakes in OMR sheet
๐น Marking all answers at the end
------------------------------------------------
Some students want to mark the OMR sheet at the end as they want to recheck answers if they get time wrong technique. Research has proved to be a disaster compared to benefit.
๐น Skip the question in OMR sheet
--------------------------------------------------
If you skipped the question for not knowing the answer, skip on the OMR sheet also. Always practice mock test with OMR sheet to prevent such mistakes
๐น Keep OMR sheet separate
------------------------------------------------
Sometimes we touch the OMR sheet unintentionally leading to a small dot on it. Even if your answer is right, it will be marked as wrong if you mark a small dot on another circle of the question.
*In* *short* ... One stupid mistake can change everything.
