What should be the last month strategy for MBA entrance exams: revision or practicing mock papers?

Ideally, it should be solving mock exams and analysing them. This helps you to understand which topics have you missed out or are not very much comfortable with. Make sure that you know all the type of questions that can be asked in the exam. Try not to leave topics completely. Also, try to stick to the timing with your final exam timing. This will make you feel relaxed on the final exam day, and you will feel like you are giving just another mock. Also, revising some grammar rules, formulas in maths should be done on daily basis. Increase the number of mocks that you give. Solving 4 mock exams in a week would be sufficient.

For last month strategy for the preparation of MBA entrance exams, practicing mock papers would be the best option rather than doing a revision. As solving the mock papers is indirectly equal to the revision only. Also, solving more and more papers can build our concepts thoroughly. So by this, almost all the important concepts can be cleared which are in the exams. Moreover, by solving maximum papers, you can also predict the score which you can score in the exams. Try to focus on the concepts which are tougher for you while solving papers, so it can help you to score more. At least 1 paper should be practiced daily for the best outputs. And try to focus on the time to solve the particular question. Take minimum time to solve the questions. It is also a fact that preparing only in the last month for MBA entrance exams like CAT, XAT, IIFT, SNAP, NMIS, etc. cannot produce the best results. But a minimum of 6-months preparation is a must for the best score.

It depends on the candidate’s practice over the last months how he had previously practiced for the exam, but essentially it should be for revising and practice of mock paper in the last months and going through all the concept of the exam. Because there is no exam in which you can score good by studying only in the last month it requires about 4-5 months FOR CAT ,XAT, IIFT, NMIS , SNAP, etc. these exams are top level exam and requires lot of preparing for the concept and will be tough to crack without preparation. So last month is meant for crucial and thorough revisions and you can practice as much you can from the sample paper and last year's exam paper. Identify the section that you are weak at and practice in that also measure your speed of answering questions as these days it matters a lot to answer in a quick manner.

Last month is actually most crucial than all the time for entrance. So firstly go through as many papers as you can. Model test papers, test series must be going on, and last year papers too. Be sincere and honest in your efforts. Analyse the answers once you have done the whole paper. Identify your mistakes and try to rectify it. Give the papers in the feel of actual examination. First is efficiency, whichever question you do give your 100 % and do not, I repeat do not have the notion that I would do whole paper if it needs to randomly answer the question. It’s okay to leave questions. But the most important thing is that how many you attempt they are your best. When you are getting efficiency slowly your speed would increase. So don’t worry if you could attempt only 40% 50% paper. Do not keep doubts. If you are not comfortable with certain concepts go talk to your faculty.

Hello! Ideally, it should be a combination of both of them as they become very crucial especially during the last one month. While practicing the mock papers, one must also pay attention to scrutinizing them properly without which one cannot expect to improve and score well in the subsequent mocks. Making a list of the mistakes committed, tracking the time spent on a particular type of question, the approach implemented while solving a problem, etc. will help. And if an aspirant faces any difficulty with regards to a specific topic(s), then one must immediately revise them. 2-3 days before the exam, one should stop giving those mocks and solely focus on revising the various concepts and important shortcuts, tricks, etc. The reason for this is, a low score in a mock solved a day or two before the final exam can lead to unnecessary anxiety and stress; impacting your performance on the D-day. I hope this helps and all the best!

Ideal strategy will be to go for combo of both mocks and revision in the remaining time. Just increase frequency of mocks in last month and 2-3 mocks per week which will make 10-12 mocks in a month that will be enough for your preparation MBA entrance exams. I think 2-3 mocks it will take your 6-9 hours in a week and remaining time can be utilize in revising and analyzing your mocks. Analyzing mocks is of great importance because this helps you to know your mistakes and thus you can improve or overcome these mistakes/errors before you final entrance exam. I hope this helps you and good luck for your MBA entrance exam.
