Last minute strategies for SNAP from toppers for SNAP…
• Don’t take any more mocks, just relax
• If you want retake the mocks where you have scored good. It will be a great confidence booster to see your score zooming past your average
• Laugh on the mistakes you have done or simple questions you left and make a mental note of not repeating the same mistake again
• No new topics. don’t waste your time on solving any new topics especially the one you are weak in
• Revise a few concepts and formulae, foolproof strategies that you have developed for overall mocks and individual topics
One day before SNAP (Saturday):
• Revise a few concepts and formulae if you want
• Relax with friends, go out for a movie or watch tele but get to bed early
• Ensure that you get a good night’s sleep on the eve of the test.
• Be positive and confident.
• Ensure that you read the test rules and regulations and are aware of what can be carried into the test venue.
• Do not forget to carry your Admit Card, photo id proof and stationery.
• Ensure that you reach the test venue ahead of time. Be there early, with plenty of time to relax and get used to your surroundings.

D Day Strategies: On the Exam Day:

• Ensure that you read the questions and directions carefully especially language tricks.
• Noise can be distracting but don’t waste your time on what others are doing and concentrate on your paper.
• Get into smart mode: Do not miss questions you are strong in and ensure you don’t waste time on difficult questions.
• Don’t get complacent during the exam.
• Don’t panic if you are unable to solve a few questions leave them! You can always come back to them later on.
• Do not hurry and make silly mistakes take your time especially in DI.
• What will happen if I don’t do well? Don’t get any negative thoughts rule your mind. Just manage time and try answering the questions accurately.
• Make sure you take power breaks after every 30-40 minutes to keep your mind fresh
