Silly mistakes in Prelims usually come from hurry, overconfidence, or poor question reading. Slow down while reading the question. Pay attention to keywords like “not,” “incorrect,” or “only,” which often change the entire meaning.
Avoid changing answers without strong reason. Many errors happen when candidates overthink and replace a correct option with a doubtful one. Trust your preparation unless you clearly identify a factual mistake.
Finally, practise under timed conditions. Simulating real exam pressure improves focus and reduces careless marking. Better concentration and disciplined decision-making can save crucial marks in Prelims.
