Mock Test Strategy Across All Plans
Frequency: Take a full scored mock test every 7-10 days. This is not optional — mock tests are the only reliable way to track progress and identify weak areas.
After each mock: Analyse your score report per communicative skill and per enabling skill. Identify the 2-3 item types where you lost the most marks. Adjust your daily practice plan to focus on these weak areas for the next 7-10 days. Repeat.
Final mock: Take your last mock test 2-3 days before the real exam. Do NOT take a mock the day before — rest and review instead.
