Week 1

Verbal Ability & Quantitative Ability

Diagnose baseline accuracy in Verbal and Quantitative by completing one timed 30-question set in each and logging error types
Build a daily 15-minute reading habit using editorials or long-form articles, marking unfamiliar words and sentence structures
Relearn core arithmetic and number-system rules (divisibility, HCF/LCM, remainders) and solve 40 practice items
Set up an error log with columns for question type, cause of error, and corrective rule

A written diagnostic report listing baseline scores, top five error causes per domain, and a personal error-log sheet with at least 60 entries

Week 2

Master percentages, ratios, averages, and profit-loss by solving 50 mixed problems under time pressure
Practise para-jumbles and sentence-completion drills, applying a fixed elimination checklist
Memorise and apply 20 high-frequency vocabulary words with usage sentences
Review the error log and re-solve every missed quantitative item without notes

A one-page formula and strategy sheet for arithmetic plus a 30-question timed quiz scored at 70% or above

Week 3

Solve time-speed-distance, work, and mensuration problems using standard shortcut methods
Learn to diagram seating arrangements, blood relations, and direction-sense puzzles
Complete 60 logical-reasoning items across at least four puzzle types and record solve time per item
Identify the two puzzle types with the lowest accuracy and schedule targeted re-practice

A timed 25-question logical-reasoning set completed with a written log of time spent per question and accuracy by puzzle type

Week 4

Cover permutations, combinations, probability, and data-interpretation sets including tables and bar charts
Drill syllogisms and assumption-conclusion questions using formal validity checks rather than intuition
Simulate a full mixed Quantitative plus Logical section under exam timing
Re-audit the error log and retire rules that are now consistently applied

A full-length timed mock of Quantitative and Logical sections with a scored analysis sheet showing section-wise accuracy and time per question

Week 5

Strengthen critical-reasoning skills by identifying conclusion, premise, and assumption in 40 argument passages
Practise reading-comprehension passages with a fixed skim-question-return strategy and cap time per passage
Revisit grammar rules for subject-verb agreement, modifiers, and parallelism with 30 correction items
Review logical puzzles missed in week 4 and re-solve them cold

Five reading-comprehension passages and ten critical-reasoning sets completed with a written accuracy summary and time log

Week 6

Build a current-affairs revision sheet covering the past six months of national, international, and economic news
Memorise key static-GK anchors in Indian polity, geography, and basic science through flashcards
Learn foundational business concepts: forms of business organisation, marketing mix, and financial statements basics
Connect management terminology to real companies by writing short examples for ten concepts

A 100-item self-quiz on general and business awareness, scored and annotated with corrections for every wrong answer

Week 7

Take two full-length timed mocks across all five domains and record section-wise timing
Analyse each mock to classify errors as conceptual, careless, or time-management
Revise weak topics flagged by mock analysis using targeted 20-question drills
Practise a question-selection strategy that skips low-yield items early

Two completed full-length mocks with a comparative analysis table showing score movement and the top three remaining weak areas

Week 8

Revise the current-affairs and static-GK sheets twice using spaced repetition
Re-read the error log end to end and re-solve the twenty most-missed questions
Take one final full-length mock under strict exam conditions and review it the same day
Finalise an exam-day plan covering section order, time caps, and skip rules

A final mock score report plus a one-page exam-day strategy card with time allocations per section

Week 2: Baseline diagnostic complete and arithmetic accuracy at or above 70% on a timed 30-question quiz

Week 4: Combined Quantitative and Logical mock attempted within time, with error log showing fewer than 25% repeated error types

Week 6: General and business awareness self-quiz scored at or above 60% with all wrong answers corrected

Week 8: Final full-length mock score shows improvement over week 7 average, and exam-day strategy card is written
