Take a mock test regularly and analyse it mindfully

There are almost seven days left until the exam. At this time, you should take a full-length mock test daily. Analyse the questions where you commit mistakes. Did you miscalculate the equation in the quants section? Did you apply the wrong tricks to solve reasoning puzzles? Are you able to choose the puzzles smartly, as there is sectional timing along with sectional cutoff? Note down all these points in a notebook and try not to repeat the same mistakes when you give the next mock test. 

Revise formulas and Root words

During this period, revise the formulas of quant topics such as CI/SI, Profit and Loss, percentage-ratio conversion, and calculation short tricks that you’ve practised till now. Also, for the English section, do revise root words as they help a lot in the vocabulary section. When you’re giving the mock test, at that time, note down the words asked in antonyms and synonyms. Revise them regularly. These root words will help in almost all the topics of the English section.

Revise all the important topics
