The last two months are for testing and fixing, not for learning new topics.
Weekly plan
- Take 10-15 full-length mocks at the time of day of your expected slot.
- Spend as long on mock analysis as on the mock; tag errors as concept, silly mistake or strategy.
- Aim for accuracy over attempts: a 70% attempt rate at 90% accuracy beats 90% attempts at 70% accuracy.
- Stop adding new topics in the last two weeks; only revise.
- Download the admit card on November 4, check every detail and visit the centre route a day early.
