Before starting any preparation it is necessary to make a proper study plan. After knowing your syllabus and exam pattern well, organise the chapters, and units accordingly. Give equal time and importance to the strong and weak areas. Firstly cover the tough sections, and then move to the easy ones. 

As the entrance test is conducted online, the candidates can practise mock tests regularly that will give them an idea of the previous years' question papers to understand the question paper pattern of the examination. It is always important that they practice mock tests to get familiarized with the computer-based test and manage their timings accordingly. Solving the previous years' papers candidates will also be aware of the difficulty level of the examination, knowing their weak and strong areas and the difficulty level of questions of knowing weak and strong areas. 

Time Management is considered one of the key elements for success while preparing for any entrance test. The time duration for the AP PGECET 2025 exam is 2 hours and candidates have to complete 120 questions. Candidates have to manage their speed of attempting all questions from each of the sections within this timeline. Therefore, make the preparation timetable keeping in mind the actual exam timings. Without time management candidates might find it difficult to solve all the questions within the given time frame. So decide which sections to solve first and which are to be solved last.
