Study in the method that best suits you... I used to take a break every 1/2 hr or so when I read... Don't read hard... read smart...;)
Take a break from all reading stuffs atleast 2-3 days b'fore the exam & try to recollect those U've read so far... refer the book if need be to clarify things that U feel is confusing... on the evening before the exam or early in the morning on the day of the exam, just browse thru' the book or those U feel is tough for U... On the day of the exam, leave all ur books home & go happily to the exam centre... Chat happily with ur friends until U get into the exam hall(This might irritate some last minute readers around U... So be sensible in doing this else U'll earn lots of enemity as I did...It is funny that some ppl do think that it's a sin to be calm & cool on the day of the exam...:roll: :lol: )
Be confident & don't panic even if U find the ques to be tough... Start answering those U r confident about & then the tougher ones or however U prefer... Don't try to calculate ur score even when U r writing the exams... Do not leave any que unaswered...write whatever U know... If U need to guess any answer, guess smartly(Sandeep's tip)... Give ur best shot & get back home... Do not discuss the answers after the exam as this might spoil ur mood & make it difficult to concentrate for the next exam... Once U get back home, eat well & have a good sleep... Now forget abt the exam that's already over & concentrate on the next...
Believe in urself & be cool... U r sure to succeed... :thumbsup:
Exams, whether termly or yearly, are based on all materials covered in syllabus for the respective period and one question at least is expected from each section. Examiners want to test your knowledge and understanding of the materials. To show that in an exam when under time constraints and pressure, there are step by step preparation for the exam:
1. Revise all notes - materials for the period the exam will cover;
2. Try to have an overall good understanding of the material;
3. Put the material into context - i.e. formulate questions that cover the materials;
NB. More than likely, the examiner setting the questions, would come up with similar questions formulated by you, though in different wording, but the answer the examiner is after, is the same with respect to content and of course lay out
in your response to show that you understand the question (this approach is more prevalent in essay type questions).
4. You can take little cards and make headings and sub-headings in each area of exam and then make brief notes that will trigger your memory. For one subject, you can do brief notes on one page - a very condensed summary about a day or two before the exam. If there is anything unclear, you have time to go back to main notes and fill the gaps. This one page summary will only be effective if you know your material well.
5. If it is an essay, structure your answer in such a way that it leaves no gaps (every part of the question must be addressed). For example, why do you think the Indian government ought to allow Indian citizenship to all people of Indian origin?
Structure for answer:
a. Who is the Indian Government;
b. What is Indian Citizenship;
c. Who are people of Indian origin;
d. What mandate is the Indian Government following in reaching its decision and to act out of obligation
e. The objective of the mandate
f. Is the mandate consistent with the objective?
g. Would the objective be met while being consistent with the mandate by allowing Indian citizenship to all people of Indian origin;
h. If not why not or if yes why yes
i) Based on a-h, you can then give your opinion as to why you think the Indian government should or should not allow Indian Citizenship to all people of Indian origin
j) In the analysis, you will find problems and solutions must be thought of in making recommnedations. Even the recommendations might have implications. Point that out. If they the recommendations were already implemented, discuss briefly how it has been working so far, any potential problems) and further solution(s).
NB.1. In structuring your answer as set out above, you are answering the what, when, who, why and how sub-questions relating to the main question. So in the end, you actually answer the question without going astray.
NB.2. In essays, the structure of your answer is laying the foundation for it and there is no right or wrong answer, once you show your understanding of the question, the issues involved and you discuss them with supportive information (facts, data etc), your answer/conclusion/opinion should be deduced from that
6 If its a problem question, identify and discuss the issues and provide the best solutions based on what the problem is, the issues and how they were discussed - how the issues can be resolved within recognized boundaries - that could be wihin legal boundaries too.
NB.1. In both essay and problem type questions, you have to be analytical or evaluative and from above you can see that will start between points "f" to "h" i.e. after being very descriptive.
NB.2 Your answer in essay should be well balanced i.e. depending on how many words you are limited to, apportion 1/4 in the descriptive part, 1/2 in the analytical part and 1/4 in your answer/conclusion/opinion. The number of points you discussed, should be reflective of this balance.
7. If it is multiple choice, Sandeep has already discussed the elimination process.
8. Before starting any question, spend a few minutes going through the paper, see how it covers the syllabus and select the questions you are best prepared for (that is if you are given choices) and do sketch answers before diving into giving answers. You may find that one question directly relates to another that you have prepared for, you may want to do them both provided you don't choose more than you need to from any particular section.
9. Leave difficult ones for last and in the process of doing the easier ones, answers to the difficult ones would flow.
10. Don't over-spend time on a question - time which should be spent on another question. If you are really prepared, that shouldn't happen. If time is up for that question or section, move on to the next, unless it is the last question or section.
Best of Luck :D
