What strategies can help in time management during the UPSC exam?
Effective time management during the UPSC exam involves several strategies. Firstly, candidates should familiarize themselves with the exam pattern and allocate time according to the weight of each question. Practicing with mock tests helps gauge how much time to spend on each section. Using a timer during practice can build efficiency. Candidates should prioritize questions that they find easier, ensuring they secure maximum marks quickly. Additionally, maintaining a calm demeanor and avoiding dwell time on challenging questions helps in adhering to the time limit. Lastly, post-exam reviews on time spent can improve future performance.
