What this means for you — short, real advice
-
If your paper is in Phase 1 (10–11 Jan) you must stay in the exam city for both days — leaving early can lead to disqualification.
-
Papers are paired (morning = General Studies, afternoon = General Aptitude); General Language is held the following day and is qualifying — don’t skip it.
-
Expect normalization across phases (paper difficulty adjustments), but do not rely on it — prepare to score well in every paper.
| Time available | Focus (what to do each day) |

| 7–10 days | Daily mock: simulate 10:00–12:00 and 14:00–16:00 papers exactly — then next morning review General Language. Time yourself strictly. |
| 3–6 days | Revise high-weight GS topics (history, polity, economy, Bihar-specific facts), solve 2 full-section aptitude sets daily. |
| Last 48 hours | Light revision, sheet of “must-remember” facts, exam-day checklist, sleep early. |
