Week 3

Solve 25 time-work and time-distance problems including pipes, trains and boats
Compute 20 progression problems on AP, GP and HP sums, nth terms and means
Factorize and simplify 20 algebraic expressions and solve 10 quadratic and linear equations

Week 4

Solve 15 coordinate-geometry problems on distance, midpoint, slope and line equations
Practice 15 trigonometry problems using standard angles, identities and heights-and-distances setups
Learn the two-statement data-sufficiency format and classify 30 questions as sufficient, insufficient or ambiguous
Time 20 data-sufficiency items at 60 seconds each and log where you over- or under-used the statements

A full-length 60-question sectional test on Domains 1, 3 and 4, scored with a per-topic accuracy breakdown

Week 5

Interpret 10 tables, bar charts, line graphs and pie charts, computing totals, ratios and percentage changes
Compute mean, median, mode, range and standard deviation for 15 datasets
Memorize 60 synonyms and antonyms in themed batches and self-test each batch
Complete 40 sentence-correction and fill-in-the-blank items, noting every grammar rule missed

A vocabulary notebook of 120 word pairs (synonym and antonym) plus a grammar-rule checklist of at least 15 rules with one example each

Week 6

Learn 40 idioms and phrases with a sentence written for each
Read 5 passages under timing and answer 30 comprehension questions, marking where each answer sits in the text
Practice 15 sentence-ordering and paragraph-coherence sets by identifying connectors and topic sentences
Write 2 short paragraphs (100 words each) using correct tense, agreement and punctuation

Five timed reading-comprehension passages completed with at least 80 percent accuracy and an annotated answer-location map

Week 7

Revise computer basics: hardware, software, memory units, input-output devices and common file extensions
Review business terminology such as invoice, ledger, debit, credit, GST and working capital
Read a current-affairs digest for business and technology developments and note 30 key facts
Revisit 40 data-sufficiency questions, focusing on the ones missed in Week 4

A 50-item self-made quiz on Domains 8 and 1, answered with at least 80 percent accuracy

Week 8

Take 4 full-length mock tests under exam timing and review every wrong answer
Re-solve the 50 most-missed questions from the error log without notes
Drill 20 mixed DI and arithmetic questions daily to sustain speed
Finalize a one-page revision sheet covering formulas, grammar rules and key facts

Four scored mock tests with a final accuracy report showing improvement over Week 4 and a completed one-page revision sheet

Week 2: Score at least 70 percent on a 30-question timed mixed set from Domains 2 and 3, with average time under 90 seconds per question

Week 4: Score at least 65 percent on the 60-question sectional test covering Domains 1, 3 and 4, and identify the two weakest subtopics

Week 6: Achieve at least 80 percent accuracy on timed reading-comprehension passages and recall at least 100 of the 120 vocabulary pairs

Week 8: Score at least 75 percent on the final full-length mock test and show a higher score than the Week 4 sectional test
