SLAT Admit Card Date:18 Dec' 25 - 28 Dec' 25
As most candidates leave SLAT Test 1, they come to the important realisation that understanding the syllabus is insufficient; understanding how the paper works is what really makes a difference. Test 1 provides a real-time preview of time traps, scoring chances, and question patterns that cannot be fully reproduced in a practice test. Your greatest advantage going into SLAT Test 2 is experience. This article on SLAT Test 2 Do’s and Don’ts Based on Test 1 Experience is designed to help you refine your plan, avoid frequent traps, and transform learning from Test 1 into a better, more confident performance in Test 2 in the SLAT 2026 Exam.
