Key Tips
- Physical prep is non-negotiable: Failing PET means elimination regardless of CBT score. Start running from Month 1.
- GK is your edge: Many candidates underestimate GK. Static GK and science facts are easy to memorise and significantly boost scores.
- Maintain 70%+ accuracy in CBT: With -0.25 penalty, skip questions you are unsure about.
