How to tackle time shortage in exams

hi..friend, first thing first , donot think about it.. Be clear in your mind that what ever u studied is enough and can present it very well. In order to qualify u need not always write the entire Qs. u can even attempt 80% of the Qs, but still.. qualify.. So, my sincere advice to is, practice promblems in the manner u going to present in the exams i.e.step wise, for this u can always go thru the suggested answers and can get an idea how to proceed & present the sum. Finally,in the exam what ever calculations or assumptions u make pls write on the paper, so that the valuer can know & can award marks even if ur final ans is wrong. All..the..Best...

Mock test is the only solution.

you are to pass the examination for which you are required to secure 40 marks find out your strentgh and weakness in which topic you have control make that perfect and thing only for 40 marks when you cross the criteria of 40 marks try for the second best i.e. 50 marks and again more marks so on. whenever you start the study afford at least 3 hr once

dear ravindra,
multiply the marks for each question by 1.5% whatever answer comes should be the time allotted for that question.. say for example Q No. 1 is for 20 marks then 1.5% comes to 30 mins. if you are able to solve the quetion in 30 mins then fine otherwise leave it and proceed to another question. on an overall basis by following this method you would be attempting all the questions in 1.5 hours. now the other 1.5 hours can be utilised to complete the tail part of the answers that you have left incomplete. this method ensures that the whole paper and all the questions are answered. also horizontal completion of the paper is more important than vertical.. in my opinion.

you should manage time properly and should not waste time on a single topic

You should determine time management on your own as per your capacity. And must follow in exam

Check if this is feasible. I have appeared for PE-II I grp. in Nov.'06 and passed the same following this time management plan. No time constraint suffered during exam time.

Time Management Plan [QN-Marks-Time] [Accounting 1Q-20-40, 2Q-16-30, 3Q-16-30, 4Q-16-30, 5Q-16-30, 6Q-16-20] [Auditing ALL 6 QUESTIONS EACH ALLOT 30 MINUTES] [B.Law 1Q-20-45, 2Q-10-15, 3Q-10-15, 4Q-10-15, 5Q-10-15] [C.Law 1Q-20-45, 2Q-10-15, 3Q-10-15]

the best way of managing time is by giving mock test...create an exam environment and try to complete the paper in 3 hr...first time it may not be possible but keep doing it and by the time of exams u may able to complete 90-95 may be even 100% of the paper. At the same time accuracy is also to be kept in mind...not just filing the paper...even 70-80% completion with 90-100% accuracy will help u in clearing the paper..

thanks for your suggestions.

try to present each question within 20mins or less
