DURING EXAMINATION

Prioritize Physics and Mathematics

Physics and Mathematics carry maximum marks in the entrance exams. So, if you are good with Physics and Maths, you will have higher chance to pass. Practice and learn these subjects as good as possible, and during the examination go for these subjects with highest confidence.

Be Careful With Aptitude and English

Engineering Aptitude is tricky and may lead you to trap. So, be careful while attempting the aptitude questions. They do not only seek high attentiveness but also teases your brain. English is something that is not much difficult, yet most of the students fail to score more than 60% in it. This is because most of them do not give English much importance and thus fall into its prey. Practicing old questions and being cautious during the exams are the key to get through Aptitude and English questions.

Beware of Negative Marking

Do not rush to answer any question as giving wrong answer will lead to 10% negative marking. This is the reason why talented but over-confident students fail to get entry to IoE. Calm down while marking your answer. If you are not sure, skip the question as it will save you from losing marks you’ve already obtained.

Time Management is Key

The most important of all is time management and it is important that all students preparing for the exam try to learn. Time management can only be learnt through thorough practice and regular mock/practice test taking. The paper pattern, duration of the paper and the number of questions to be attempted in the given amount of time is not something you will be able to pick up on the day of the examination. So it is important that you practice it and practice it well. During examination, take care of your time and make sure you do not spend more time on any subject.

Stay Positive

Staying positive will not answer your questions but it will steer you clear of unnecessary confusion and panic. Being confident and optimistic can create miracles and keep negative thoughts away. This way you can give the best shot at the examination. When you enter the examination, believe that you will do great.
