How to Beat the Competition.
Biology is king
It's the largest section (23 questions). Prioritize it first and master it completely.
Negative marking discipline
Never guess randomly; blank (0 points) is far better than a wrong answer (-0.4 points).
No formula sheet in Physics
Memorize key formulas (kinematics, Ohm's law, energy) before the exam day.
Logical reasoning can be trained
Practice syllogisms and argument analysis daily to improve speed and accuracy.
