    Hello,
    You can make a note of the common mistakes and errors done by you while giving the mock tests. Analyze them well to exactly where and why are you going wrong. Refer to it before the final exam to ensure you do not commit those mistakes there again.
    Good luck!

    Hello,
    Only way you can deal with common mistakes is with lots of practice before hand. If you develop a sense of familiarity during the main exam, you will only have to focus on the questions before you instead of any other behavioral trait leading to mistakes. Follow some points. Don't stress out. If you feel the paper is way too tough or way too easy for what you have practiced, don't worry about it. The general trend will be the same and so your score will be normalized accordingly. Just keep attempting as many as you can. If you keep this in mind while taking the exam, you won't stress out and hence you won't commit silly mistakes

    Go through the subject properly and practice well which makes you more confident. And, also go through the mistakes which you have done before. So you will not repeat it again.

    MAT is essentially an exam that is lower on the difficulty level. Hence, accuracy with speed becomes sacrosanct to score a good percentile. The common mistakes which candidate makes and how to avoid them:
    1. Do not leave GK section prep for too late- GK is an integral part of MAT, hence a good score in this section is needed for a good overall %ile. Most students don't prepare for this section and it is the biggest mistake as even basic prep can help solve 50% of the questions

    Tips to avoid common mistakes in MAT:
    A- Don't feel pressure:
    Getting under stress is the biggest mistake that we make just before the exam and prepare ourselves ready to lose the race. Make sure you are positive, remain cool and calm throughout the exam.
    B- Enter with open mind:
    Our suggestion is not to get biased or limit yourself in attempting the number of questions. You may or may not attempt all the questions in all the sections, given the time constraint or for fear of getting penalty for wrong answer.
