Make a Study Plan: Create a study timetable that works with your schedule and learning preferences.

Mock tests: Take full-length mock tests under timed conditions to simulate the exam experience. This will assist you in assessing your readiness, increasing your endurance, and identifying areas for development. Examine your answers and comprehend the justifications for erroneous answers.
Review and revise: Go over the things you've studied and revise essential concepts on a regular basis. To reinforce your comprehension of key terminology, formulas, and procedures, use flashcards, mind maps, or other memory aids.
Maintain Calm and Confidence: On the day of the exam, maintain your calm and confidence. Take deep breaths, carefully read each question, and choose the best response based on your knowledge and experience. Manage your time properly so that you have enough time to review your response
