Ascent-Mock tests

Mock tests played a very crucial role in my preparation. With an year in hand one can plan studies according to the mocks. I took a whole year series of VISIONIAS and divided the tests at an interval of 15 to 20 days and planned studies accordingly.

For example, On 1st of a month I planned to attempt a paper on say 15th of that month so with all the material in hand I gave 15 days to study the mock test content. It included current affairs, The hindu and answer writing from insightsonindia, past year questions(just a basic structure). On the 15th of the month I revised all the content related to the test and attempted the mock.

Thus I prepared myself for comprehensive content, exam oriented studies, performance pressure and analysis and one day revision.

I also planned the test for optional after a day or sometimes a day or two before.

Planning mocks is thus very important apart from attempting them seriously within the stipulated time limit.

I hope this helps. All the best.
