Obviously, most students spend 1-2 years preparing for this exam, and clearing the examination and getting a good NLU is a dream that they have seen. However, it is necessary that students while giving exams should make sure that they do not lose marks because of silly mistakes. During the examination, students often make common mistakes that can be easily avoided when an exam is being given with precision and efficiency. Six common mistakes that the students tend to do and should avoid are-<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Do not skip reading instructions- It is mandatory for the students who are appearing for the exam to read all the instructions given to them including instructions given on admit card judiciously. These instructions help you to understand the marking scheme for each question, tell you if there is any negative marking, provide information on time-period, explain how to mark answers, and other important information.<\/li>\n<li>Do not stick to one question- Mostly students get stuck while trying to solve one question which they know they can solve but are not able to solve. It is better not to waste time on that question and rather answer the other questions first, and if time remains then try again solving it. It is okay to do something except your mental defeat for an overall better result<\/li>\n<li>Do not lose morale if you see tough questions \u2013 Sometimes the first few questions go as bouncers for students as they are not able to answer them. It is recommended that students should not panic or lose morale seeing those questions. Move to the next questions and start attempting them. It is possible that those questions are tough for the majority and therefore, they won\u2019t affect your result much. However, losing your spirit by seeing those questions and not being able to solve the other questions properly can lead to a bad result.<\/li>\n<li>Keep an eye on the time- While students are attempting the exam, they forget to keep checking the time again and again. Mostly, <a href=\"https:\/\/lawentranceindia.com\/\"><strong>competitive examinations like CLAT<\/strong><\/a> are time-based examinations and one who manages the time secures better marks as the student is able to attempt more questions than too patiently and calmly. So, keep a tab on the clock.<\/li>\n<li>Attempt more questions- Do not be afraid to attempt questions. Try attempting as many questions as you can. But make sure that it should not be total guesswork (blind guesswork). You should have prior knowledge or surety before answering a question or else there would be negative marking.<\/li>\n<li>Read questions sincerely- Many times, students do know the answer to questions but tend to mark wrong answers just because of confusion which is caused by reading questions carelessly. Remember, even a small word can change the whole meaning of the sentence. It is required that read every question cautiously before attempting so that the accuracy rate is higher and you don\u2019t lose marks because of silly mistakes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) 2024 is approaching, many students are thinking about what all things are to be taken care of in the exam.
