CS Executive Exam Day Tips – Do's & Don'ts for Dec 2025
Exam day, when three hours each paper are all that remains after months of preparation. Feeling anxious? That is quite typical. Let's make sure you're ready in both theory and practice because even small errors on test day might lose you a lot of points CS Executive Exam Day Tips – Do's & Don'ts for Dec 2025.
The Night Before
Don't:
Study till 2 AM (you'll be exhausted!)
Try to complete pending topics (too late now!)
Discuss exam with panic-mode friends (their stress becomes yours!)
Do:
Light revision of important formulas/sections
Pack your exam bag
Set 2-3 alarms
Sleep by 10-11 PM (7-8 hours sleep is crucial!)
Trust me, you won't remember anything you cram at 1 AM. But you WILL remember to take your admit card if you pack the night before!

What to Carry (Checklist Time!)
Mandatory (Don't forget these!):
Admit card (original printout, not photocopy!)
ID proof (Aadhar/PAN/Passport—original!)
Black/blue pens (carry 3-4, ink runs out!)
Pencil & eraser (for rough work)
Optional but Smart:
Water bottle (transparent, label removed)
Watch (phone not allowed, need to track time!)
Small notebook for rough work (if permitted)
Glucose/chocolate (quick energy boost)
Absolutely NOT allowed:
Mobile phones (even if switched off!)
Smart watches
Books or notes
Extra bags
Reaching the Exam Center
Leave home: At least 1.5 hours before exam
Why so early?: Bangalore traffic + finding the exact hall + using washroom + settling down
Pro tip: Visit your exam center a day before if you're not familiar with the location. Reduces last-minute panic!

The First 15 Minutes (Most Important!)
Don't rush into writing. Use this time smartly:
Minute 1-5: Read entire question paper
Minute 6-10: Mark questions you can answer confidently
Minute 11-13: Decide your answering order
Minute 14-15: Plan time allocation per question
This planning saves you from mid-exam panic of "oh no, I can't finish!"
Answer Writing Strategy
Start with: Questions you're 100% confident about (builds confidence + saves time)
Then move to: High-marks questions you know well (secure maximum marks)
Finally attempt: Difficult or unsure questions (at least you have something!)
Never leave blank: Even if you don't know, write SOMETHING. Partial marks are better than zero!
Time Management Hacks
3 hours = 180 minutes for 100 marks
Roughly 1.8 minutes per mark. But here's smarter allocation:
5-mark question: 7-8 minutes 10-mark question: 15 minutes 15-mark question: 25 minutes Buffer for checking: 20 minutes
Stick to these limits! Move on if time's up, come back later if needed.

Presentation Matters (A LOT!)
Your answer might be perfect, but if the examiner can't read it, you lose marks!
Do:
Write legibly (speed is useless if it's unreadable)
Use headings and sub-headings
Leave line spacing
Underline important terms
Number your points
Don't:
Use red pen (only black/blue allowed)
Overwrite or scratch heavily
Write outside margins
Make your answer look messy
Common Exam Day Disasters (And How to Avoid)
"I forgot my admit card!" → Pack exam bag night before, double-check morning
"My pen stopped working mid-exam!" → Carry 3-4 pens
"I couldn't finish the paper!" → Practice time management beforehand
"I panicked seeing tough questions!" → Start with easy questions first
After Each Paper
Don't: Discuss answers with friends (what's done is done!)
Do: Eat well, rest, prepare for next paper
Each paper is independent. One bad paper doesn't mean the module is lost. Stay
focused!
