MH SET study plan

MH SET · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

Subject paper (SET examination conducted by Savitribai Phule Pune University)

Map the full SET Subject Paper syllabus for your chosen subject against the official Pune University SET notification and list every unit with its approximate weight
Diagnose your baseline by attempting one full-length previous-paper-style mock under timed conditions and scoring it by unit
Rank units from weakest to strongest using mock scores and mark the three units that will receive the most hours
Build a weekly timetable that reserves two long blocks for the heaviest units and short daily slots for revision

A one-page unit-weight and baseline-score sheet plus a fixed 8-week timetable committed to a calendar

Week 2

Cover the first heavy unit end to end from standard textbooks, writing structured notes with definitions, derivations, and worked examples
Solve at least 40 practice questions from that unit and log every error with its cause
Explain three core concepts from the unit aloud in under five minutes each without notes
Create a one-page formula and concept summary for the unit

A completed unit notebook section plus an error log with at least 40 solved questions

Week 3

Cover the second heavy unit fully, building notes in the same structured format as week 2
Solve at least 40 practice questions from the second unit and classify errors as conceptual, procedural, or careless
Re-attempt all week 2 error-log questions and record whether each is now correct
Draft 15 original recall questions from the first two units and answer them from memory

A second unit notebook section and a re-test report showing the corrected rate on week 2 errors

Week 4

Cover the third heavy unit and connect it to the first two wherever concepts overlap
Complete a half-length timed sectional test covering units 1 to 3 and score it by unit
Rewrite your one-page summaries so each fits on a single card for spaced review
Identify two units still scoring below 50 percent and schedule them into weeks 5 and 6

A sectional test scorecard with per-unit accuracy and a revised plan for the remaining four weeks

Week 5

Cover the two weakest units identified in week 4 using targeted textbook reading and worked examples only
Solve 30 focused questions per weak unit and re-derive each formula from memory before checking
Start a spaced-review cycle that revisits every completed unit card at least twice this week
Time yourself on 20 questions to build pace toward roughly one minute per question

A weak-unit recovery log showing accuracy before and after the week's study

Week 6

Complete coverage of every remaining syllabus unit so no unit is untouched
Attempt one full-length mock under strict exam timing and mark every uncertain answer for review
Analyse the mock by unit, question type, and time spent, listing the top five recurring mistakes
Convert each recurring mistake into a specific correction rule written on your summary cards

A full-length mock with a written error analysis and five correction rules

Week 7

Attempt two full-length mocks on separate days with full exam conditions and no interruptions
Review every wrong and guessed answer to its source concept and re-solve it cold
Drill your weakest question type with 50 rapid questions until accuracy exceeds 70 percent
Practise a two-pass exam strategy: answer confident questions first, then return to marked ones

Two scored mocks plus a comparison showing improvement in accuracy and completion time

Week 8

Review only summary cards, error logs, and correction rules; add no new material
Attempt one final full-length mock early in the week and stop heavy practice after it
Rehearse exam-day logistics: admit card, ID, reporting time, and permitted items
Run two short recall sessions daily on the highest-weight units to keep them sharp

A final mock score above your week 6 baseline plus a printed exam-day checklist

Week 2: First heavy unit is fully covered, at least 40 questions are solved, and the error log is started

Week 4: Three heavy units are complete and a timed sectional test shows per-unit accuracy above 50 percent in at least two of them

Week 6: Every syllabus unit has been covered at least once and one full-length timed mock is scored and analysed

Week 8: Final mock score exceeds the week 6 baseline and all summary cards and correction rules have been reviewed twice
