Along with the exam pattern and previous year question papers, the candidates must also follow a revision plan to boost their preparations in the last 7 days. Here is a revision plan shared by previous year toppers to ace the MHT CET exam:
#1 Start with revising easy topics first and dividing tougher topics as per their quantity in the last 6 days. Like if there are 12 tough topics try to cover at least 2 daily. At the same time, mark topics that are difficult to remember and revise them on a daily basis.
#2 Prepare a formula sheet for each aptitude subject and follow it diligently. This will help in avoiding missing any formula for the last few days. It will also help as a revision material on the exam day.
#3 Refrain from starting any new topics, stick and revise the ones you have aced it till now. Starting any new topic won’t help in increasing the marks but will definitely create confusion in the minds of the candidates.
#4 Attempt mock tests, analyse them and mark your strong and weaker subjects and topics. Mock tests also help in knowing the AIR based on the candidate’s performance.
#5 Do not study anything on the day before the exam, just relax and shred all the tensions or anxiety related to the exam. Follow a healthy and balanced diet for a good performance on exam day.
