How to complete exam paper on time?

Here I would like to share with you a something different which can be useful for your upcoming examinations. Many a times my friends complaining that they are unable to complete their papers in a given time.Please keep in mind that in professional examination like C.A. examiners are framing question papers in a such a way that student can complete paper in given period of 3 hours.

Institute has fixed time for examination for 3 hours and 15 minutes.  You will be given extra 15 minutes to read question paper.In such a time you will be not given answer sheet and you will have 3 hours net to write your question paper. In examination each and every minute is extremely important.Many times I found students are reading outside of examination hall till last minute and finally can not find their seat number and waste their time.

Many times students fail to score well, not because they do not know the answers to the questions asked, but because they are unable to complete the paper in the given time. Here are tips to ensure that you complete the paper in the stipulated time and pass with flying colors.

1. Start writing from the get-go

Often, when a paper begins, before you start writing you may be tempted to look around and note people’s expressions or look through the whole paper and evaluate what you know and what you don’t. But do not give in to these temptations. Start writing the paper from the minute you get it. You must understand that each minute saved is a minute earned in the examination hall.

2. Do not waste time pondering over answers

Write what you know and leave what you don’t for the time being. Once you have finished writing the answers for all the questions you know, revisit the questions you have left and try to answer as many as you can.

3. Do speed training with sample papers before exams

Speed training is extremely essential these days, keeping in mind the complexity of question papers. Practice finishing papers 15 minutes before the stipulated time, keeping 15 minutes for revision. But remember to do these practice sessions rather seriously, without any breaks in between or without any help from your textbooks. Apart from time training, this will also help you in knowing how prepared you are for the exams. Solve at least five practice sample papers for each subject and you are bound to get a hang of completing papers on time.

4. Make no-breaks a rule

You must discipline yourself in such a way that you don’t need to take breaks, because every minute counts. Carry a water bottle so that you don’t have to step out to drink water. Avoid rest room breaks and definitely don’t take breaks to relax your fingers.

5. Walk into the examination hall with a fresh mind and body

Often, students study through the night and walk into the examination hall tired and very pre-occupied. This hampers them from doing their best. Ensure that you have slept well so that during the exams you are completely alert and at your fastest. Don’t do sample papers one day before the exam so you don’t walk in mentally and physically tired. Have a healthy snack before you walk in so that you don’t feel hungry and low on energy. And keep mints on you in case you feel unwell. Carrying some glucose water may be a good idea as well.

6.Genreal Tips

• Bring two calculators to examination hall. If unfortunately one stops working you can take help of another else you can demand from your supervisor without any hesitation.
• Use only that calculator with which you are familiar.which will be useful to you save your time.
• Always plan your schedule in a such a way that you well reach examination hall on time.
• Avoid coping from your neighbor.
• Try to complete every questions in time according to weighted of marks given to individual questions.

The trick is to be prepared and confident. Keep nervousness at bay and take on every exam like a battle you need to win and you are bound to emerge as a winner.
