Next day when you begin the test first complete the leftover task. If you feel that the hours assigned for each subject and tpis are kinger you may take a break of half an hour not more than that. When you complete the task, use a color note to track how much you could complete.

Tip #5. Do not panic

Friends keep faith in yourself. Just give your hard work and forget everything else. If there are some topics you do not understand at all. You may take help of your teachers. The time table is meant as a reference in cases where the candidate wants to assign as much time as possible for self study. This is no compulsion for you and stress out for no reason. Trying is what matters. Believe in your hard work.
