CLAT Preparation - strategy for October

With merely two months remaining for the CLAT entrance exam, students are bound to get stressed out and lose focus. It is a common problem that every student faces even if they have put in their best effort and despite all that they will still find themselves running out of time. However, you can turn things around if you fully devote and strategize well starting in October. Here are a few strategies to keep in mind for the CLAT preparation.

> Do Not Add New Topics: By now, we presume that you have read through the whole syllabus and exam pattern. So start focusing on covering the significant portions of the CLAT syllabus in the initial 15-20 days of the October month by committing at least 10 hours a day. Go for the easier ones first and leave the tough ones for later.

> Set Your Target Scores: First and foremost, you should set an ideal score for each section in order to reach the cut-off. The good news is that this year, the CLAT exam has significantly reduced the number of questions compared to previous years. So this is a great opportunity for students to attempt more questions within the provided time frame.

> Distributing Time for Each Subject: Remember to distribute time for each subject after fully understanding the weightage set to them in the CLAT entrance exam. English language, GK & Current Affairs, Legal Reasoning, Logical Reasoning, and Quantitative Techniques are pivotal sections in the CLAT exam. By examining the weightage of each subject, you can give importance to your study time accordingly.

> Revise, Revise, and Revise: The CLAT exam syllabus is very vast, and hence, you can also easily forget the topics you have already studied if you don’t revise daily. To tackle this, it is essential to make concise and effective short notes for crucial topics, shortcuts, and formulas. These notes will come in handy and also help you as a reference guide, assisting you to retain and remember all the important information.

> Enhancing Reading Comprehension Skills: Learn to identify the primacy of having exceptional Reading Comprehension skills. Be aware that the CLAT examination question paper comprises passage-based questions, putting together substantial reading proficiency vital for success. Each section of the CLAT entrance exam will consist of passages containing roughly 400-450 words, followed by MCQs. You need to have the ability to take out relevant information at a rapid pace and bring out rational conclusions from the provided passage.
