This changes everything. CBT is a different game altogether. So it's not as easy as "Oh, the paper is going to be on the screen instead of a paper." Screen is a different psychology altogether.
Now shut all the noise and get back to your prep. Hope things go right this time. Don't keep guessing whether the question paper is going to be tougher. It doesn't matter. You are prepared and you will do well. Only thing in your hands right now is the next 1 month. Happy Prep!
So here I am again. One more day!! Hope you are all set. The second thing I want you all to remember is to first write down the choice you are going to bubble up (I suggest you find your own method to make sure you are bubbling up the right answer). This seems simple but once you mark the wrong bubble, it's kind of impossible to undo it. One thing you may lose a mark and another thing you gave up the 4 marks you had in your hands. So remember these two things - Units being asked and making sure you are marking the right choice. Be organized with this. It counts!!
Stay confident. You got this!
Take care.
As you sit in the examination hall, the only thing on your mind is "How's the paper going to be?". You look around and see if everyone is thinking the same. You check your pen and hope it doesn't stop while filling the bubbles. Don't want to describe more than this.
You get the paper. Suddenly you realize, "Oh, this is not as tough as I thought." Then you see the familiar question in the first or second pages of Physics. You even remember the answer. You go for it and mark. Hold on. The most common trap the neet examiner uses is always in the end of the question. UNITS. I know you are like all this to tell us that we have to check UNITs asked. Yes. A little drama there so that you remember it.
I also have another thing....hmmm....I don't want to dilute today's point. Tmrw's post.
Take care.
Three more days!! Hope you are all set. What do you actually do these 3 days that will help you perform on the exam day?
First, I will not say 'read this chapter, read that chapter or read this sir's pdf or that mam's pdf'. All that is gone now. Right now its just you and the skillset that you developed over whatever time you have invested into this test. Everyday for the next three days, sit for half an hour and think about all the hard work you have done. All the struggle you went through. All the fight you put up. This is going to make sense. So appreciate yourself that you did good. How much ever it is....you did good. Say it out like a mantra at least for 20 mins. This builds confidence.
Second, if you followed what I have been shouting at the top of my voice since last month, you must have made a list of most common silly mistakes you made during mocks or practice sessions. Go through the list and make sure you remember those are you traps and make it a point you will not fall into them. This will prime you for the exam day where you will not give away your 4 marks which you actually own.
Third is probably the most important one. Sleep. Not in the afternoon .... 2pm to 5pm alertness plan stays as it is. Sleep well for over 8 hours at night. Whatever you have studied and practiced so far will consolidate and forms strong memories at this time. It's a vast subject especially biology and all the memory layers will integrate well. It will help with your recollection capacity.
Again, NEET is just an exam. Some will feel very ready and some won't. Some will feel confident and some disappointed that they wasted time. Some will make and some won't. And it's still fine.
You can share your own plans for the next 3 days. It will be interesting to read.
Take care.
It's just four days to the D day. I know these are going to be the most difficult days of the year for you. Panic attacks, anxiety and depression - all coming in one after the other like those sequels or all at the same time. It's easy for me to say "it will all be good or just relax, it will go great" and i am sure for most of you, those words won't help. But I want you all to remember one thing. You did your best. Yes, may be you could have done better but that's just hindsight. Right now, you are at a position where you chose to be and be proud of yourselves.
Again, NEET or no NEET, doctor or no doctor, there are a million ways life will surprise you. Just keep repeating you did your best and open up to life to hold you. Talk to your mentors, friends or parents(if you feel safe enough) if you have any troubling thoughts. We are all here for you.
Happy Prep!
