Pseudocode tracing, output prediction, OOP concepts, SQL queries, normalization basics.
Solve 10-15 easy-medium problems in C/Java/Python. Review OS scheduling, network layers.
Take a full-length mock. Review all wrong answers. Revise formula sheet and key facts.
âąī¸ Time Management Tips
- No negative marking â attempt ALL questions, never leave blanks
- Numerical: ~1.5 min/question. Skip if stuck beyond 2 min, return later
- Verbal: Read questions first, then scan the passage for answers
- Reasoning: Draw diagrams for seating & blood relations. Use elimination
- Programming: Trace code line-by-line mentally, check edge cases
- Coding: Think approach for 2 min before writing. Test with sample input
- Section order: Start with your strongest section for confidence
- Flag & return: Mark tough questions and come back in remaining time
đ Key Formulas Quick Reference
đĄ Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't spend too long on a single question â move on and return
- Don't skip questions â no negative marking means always attempt
- Don't ignore verbal section â it's high-scoring with practice
- Don't memorize code â understand logic and trace step by step
- Don't panic if coding section is hard â focus on partial marks
- Don't forget to check unit conversions (km/h â m/s, hours â min)
- Don't rely solely on shortcuts â understand the concept behind them
- Don't ignore the last 10 minutes â review flagged questions
đ§ Section-wise Pro Tips
đĸ Quantitative
- Learn tables up to 30, squares up to 25, cubes up to 15
- Use approximation for complex calculations
- For percentage questions, use base value method
- Ratio problems: assume values to simplify
𧊠Reasoning
- In series questions, check differences then ratios
- For coding-decoding: map A=1, Z=26 immediately
- Blood relations: draw family tree diagrams
- Syllogisms: use Venn diagrams, not assumptions
đ Verbal
- Read 1 English article daily to improve comprehension
- Focus on common confusables: affect/effect, its/it's
- Para jumbles: find the intro sentence first (general â specific)
- Cloze test: read full passage before filling blanks
đģ Programming
- For pseudocode: track variables on paper step by step
- Know Big-O of common algorithms and operations
- Understand recursion by drawing call stacks
- Practice output prediction for loops and conditionals
