How to use KCET mocks without wasting them
- Finish a chapter, then take its chapter test the same week — mistakes are cheapest to fix while the theory is fresh.
- Because KCET has no negative marking, never leave a question blank. Practise eliminating options and attempting all 60.
- Take full-length mocks at the same time of day as your real paper and follow the strict 70-minute limit.
- After every mock, list the chapters where you lost marks and rewatch only those lectures and DPPs.
- Pair mocks with KCET previous year question papers so you see repeated question types, not just new ones.
