Master your computer-based test with these proven strategies and tips specifically for Civil Service exams
Set your exam date to start a personalized countdown
Take practice tests on the same platform you'll use for the actual exam. Learn the navigation, tools, and interface beforehand to save time during the test.
Divide your time according to the number of questions. Don't spend too long on difficult questions - mark them and return later if time permits.
Pay attention to keywords like "not", "except", or "always". In CBT exams, you can't underline text, so read each question thoroughly.
Eliminate obviously wrong answers first. This increases your chances of selecting the correct option from the remaining choices.
If time allows, go back and review your answers. Pay special attention to questions you were uncertain about.
Close all other applications, ensure a stable internet connection, and keep your device charged or plugged in during the exam.
