Daily short practice
Because the papers are long and the questions are direct, a short daily practice habit works better than occasional long sessions. Rotate through Mathematics, Reasoning and General Awareness across the week.
Weekly full paper
Once a week, take a full CBT-style paper. Track your accuracy per section and the number of questions you did not reach. If you did not reach many, your speed is the issue; if you reached all but scored low, accuracy is.
Fix the slowest area
Each week, choose one slow topic and drill it, for example percentage or direction sense. A narrow weekly focus gives more progress than general revision.
Final weeks
Take two or three full papers a week, reviewing each. Revise your formula and fact sheets daily. For more on structure, see our railway mock-test guide.
