Make a study plan -

‘Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out’ - Robert Collier

Executing one’s daily routine over a period of time can lead one towards AILET 2020. The study plan may vary from candidate to candidate, but, It should be practical and executable. Remember, making a study plan is just one aspect of your preparation, execution is the other aspect and the most important one. Regarding execution, Thomas Edison has rightly said “Vision without execution is just a hallucination”. And, not executing the study plan will surely damage your chances of clearing AILET 2020.

Mock tests and previous years’ papers - Solving mock tests is highly recommended by many AILET toppers. Solving mock test helps in giving a reality check of AILET preparation and tells you exactly where you stand. Candidates should make it a routine to solve at least one mock test everyday.

Daily current affairs - The general knowledge section is majorly dominated by the topics related to current affairs; so to score well in AILET 2020, prepare current affairs smartly. Agam Agrawal, AIR - 5, 2019 suggests reading ‘The Hindu’ is extremely beneficial for AILET. One may read daily newspaper and write down important news, events, appointments, and other important information. Additionally, you can also follow any good current affairs book at the end of the month and revise the monthly current affairs.
