There are several things that you have to keep in mind:
a ) D i f f e r e n t i a t e between speed and hurry: Many students think that speed means making guesses and blundering on. This is wrong. Do the q u e s t i o n s w i t h concentration. Don't worry about questions you could
not attempt, because you possibly cannot do 180 questions in two hours. Speed means avoiding
u n n e c e s s a r y calculations.

• Hot tip: Allow yourself 30 seconds to glance over the section before starting. This will help you locate the

easy questions. b) Keep your cool. There will be some difficult questions and some easy ones. When you hit the
difficult ones, you must stay calm. Skip a few questions. Don't panic, because if you do, you have almost certainly lost the battle.

• Hot tip: If you become tense, just close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Return
  to the paper once

you are composed again. c) Manage your time: Keep a watch before you. Write down the time when you should move over to the new section. Don't be tempted to stick to the previous section when the time is over. Just keep
moving on.

• Hot tip: Each section should be attempted in 28 minutes. Allow yourself 2 minutes to go back on questions you could not solve, or for making some intelligent guesses.

COMPREHENSION

• Tips for speed reading Next time you are reading a paper, try this. First stage: Sweep your hand from left to right across the page so your finger underlines each line. Follow your finger with your eyes. The difficulty of the

material determines the speed, but move your hand a little faster than your eye can follow comfortably.
Make your eyes work to keep up. Soon you will find yourself reading whole phrases and ideas. As it gets easier, keep increasing the speed.
