Pay attention to details

First of all, read the instructions given at the beginning of paper carefully.Then read the instructions at the beginning of each question. Take note of small words like-some, almost ,generally, all etc. These are qualifying words and can change the questions compeletly. Pay special attention to these small words, as these tend to change the meaning of questions completely.

Do not start to answer the questions ( even if the question happens to be a familiar one ), without first reading the part that gives the instruction. The figure/ letters in the question may be familiar, but in the question itself,there may be something different which the examiner wants to know.
