Create a revision strategy
Given that the UPSSSC PET Exam is only a few days away, you should devise a revision strategy for yourself, as revision is essential during exam preparation. Make a plan to cover all of the subjects that are expected in the exam and thoroughly revise them. You should concentrate specifically on the topics that you are unable to recall.
Take UPSSSC PET Mock Exams
You should try to devote the majority of your efforts to take as many UP PET mock tests as possible. This will assist you in devising a strategy for attempting the paper. Analyze your mistakes in the mock tests, take notes, and go over them again. You should try to take these mock tests at the same time of day as the timing/shift of your exam to ensure that your brain becomes accustomed to working at these hours.
Concentrate on Weakness
You must be aware of your weak areas in the syllabus if you have been studying for the exam for some time. So, now you should concentrate much more on these areas of weakness. These are the subjects in which you feel the least confident. To gain confidence in these topics, try to understand the concepts again and revise them on a daily basis.
Do Not Introduce New Topics
You should avoid studying new topics when there are only a few days until the exam. Stick to the books and notes you made to avoid confusion and time waste. You should only concentrate on topics that you are already familiar with and revise them several times.
One day before the exam, keep calm and rest
Staying calm is essential throughout the exam preparation process as well as while answering the question paper. You should avoid being tense or disturbed the day before the exam. Try to take rest and study light topics, and make sure that you get enough sleep before the exam. Along with this, you should keep all of the necessary items for the examination hall. Approach the exam with a positive and relaxed attitude and do your best.
