BEFORE THE EXAM

  • Avoid studying at the last minute; Do it well before the exam date.
  • Taking a revision course is highly recommended.
  • Familiarize yourself with the exam structure, syllabus, regulations, etc.
  • Plan your preparation in advance by setting achievable targets for each day.

DURING THE EXAM

  • Take 15 minutes of time to read through all the questions.
  • Divide time equally between similar questions.
  • Make sure that you understand the question clearly and its requirements before answering. Pay extra attention to recommended topics
  • Start with the questions that you are confident and comfortable in answering first.

  • Make sure that your answer is related to the question.
  • Spend a minute planning your answer, write a short plan of your answer and follow it thereby keeping it simple, but organized and structured.

AFTER THE EXAM
