IIFT 2021 Last Minute Preparation Tips

  • Solve as many mock papers/practice papers as possible. This is the only way to revise the entire paper.
  • Do not try to learn new topics which were not touched before. This will only add to your confusion.
  • From the previous year papers, you will get an idea of the topics which are important. Focus on those instead of unimportant topics.
  • Be comfortable in making your diagrams and notes to understand the subject; mostly importantly the reasoning section.
  • Know which subjects/areas you are good at, and in where all improvement is needed. Keep revising the subjects even when you are done with it.
  • Keep calm and do not stress out. Take the required breaks to stay focused.
