Q: Â How should I improve my AILET score?
First and foremost, your primary goal should be the AILET exam, and mocks should be used solely for learning purposes. You can follow the following tips to improve your score:
1. Analyze areas where you're scoring less frequently.
2. Review the topics in which you scored lower on a regular basis.
3. Divide your study time in half: 60% should be spent practicing and revising weak topics, and 40% should be spent maintaining strong areas.
4. Give each section dedicated, fixed time to ensure that you are allocating equal time to all sections.
5. You may give more time to sections that are taking a lot of time after completing the ones you know. For example, if you are taking a lot of time in comprehension, you can save the last few minutes for this section and solve other sections first. There is no ideal score, but try to maintain a consistent overall score above 80 in mocks to stay confident for the real exam. Try to score above 25 marks in the English section and above 50 in logical reasoning, as this section can be strengthened with practice. You should not be concerned because General Knowledge is a dynamic section; instead, try to answer 50 percent of the questions correctly in this section to avoid negative marking. You just have to regularly revise and practice, keeping the syllabus in mind, and you can sail through this exam.
