Preparation Tips
Start by revising high-yield concepts section-wise (CPC/CrPC, Evidence, Constitution) and practice short quizzes daily to improve accuracy. Focus on understanding provisions and exceptions rather than memorizing isolated facts, and use timed attempts to build speed for 120 minutes. Review explanations after every mock to identify recurring weak areas, especially in English composition and reasoning. Since there is no negative marking, attempt all questions, but maintain strategy by prioritizing sure answers first.
