Candidates preparing for the MP PSTET 2023 can check some preparation tips below:

• Start with easy topics: It’s a common practice to start your study with easy topics with which you are comfortable. This will not only help you finish those topics quickly but also grow your confidence. You can then approach tougher topics with more confidence.
• Create a revision strategy: When you are preparing for a competitive exam, every second of your preparation matters. Therefore, you should devise and implement an effective revision strategy. Make a schedule and follow that diligently. Moreover, dedicate time for each subject and devote additional time to your weak subjects or topics. Revise important formulas, equations, and word problems on the formulas.
• Attempt mock tests and practice questions: Take subject-wise mock tests and practice questions on Embibe. These will help you prepare for the actual exam. Furthermore, you will also get a detailed analysis of your performance in these tests, which will assist you in identifying the mistakes you are making. You can then work on those errors so that you don’t repeat the same mistakes when you sit for the actual exam.
• Make notes and use diagrams & charts for revision: During the last moments before the exam, you should not go through the entire topic. Furthermore, it is not practical to go over all the topics. Hence, we recommend that you make revision notes with proper diagrams when you are studying for the exam. This way, you can easily and efficiently revise all the topics from all subjects 2 or 3 days prior to the exam. It will not only save your precious time but also help in improved memorisation.
• Stay positive: Preparation is one thing, and performing in the actual exam is another. Your exam performance depends not only on your level of preparation and knowledge about the subject but also on other factors. Your confidence level, your attitude towards the exam, and your positive nature can make a lot of difference in the final result.
