2. Open-Book Format Vanished
Earlier AIBE was open book exam but since AIBE 16 it is no longer a open book exam.
In open book exam candidates can take the note book or study material at the centre
3. Time Management Issues
- AIBE is known to have questions that require careful reading and analysis. Candidates who aren’t familiar with managing time during exams often find themselves struggling to complete the test within the given period.
- Some candidates spend too much time on complex questions or flipping through materials, leading to incomplete sections.
4. Insufficient Practice with Past Papers
- Many candidates don’t practice enough with previous years’ question papers or mock tests. Practicing these can help with understanding question patterns, frequently tested topics, and improving time management.
5. Inadequate Knowledge of Bare Acts and Legal Provisions
- AIBE tests knowledge of bare acts and key legal provisions, and candidates who aren’t comfortable navigating these may face difficulties.
- Familiarity with bare acts, important sections, and commonly tested case laws is essential, especially since AIBE often includes straightforward questions that can be answered by knowing these fundamentals.
6. Limited Understanding of Procedural Laws
- Topics like the Code of Civil Procedure (CPC), Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC), and Evidence Act are procedural but important for the exam. Many candidates may skip these due to the technical detail involved, which can lead to gaps in knowledge.
7. Stress and Anxiety
- Test anxiety or stress, especially if it’s the candidate’s first attempt, can negatively impact performance. This may lead to second-guessing, rushing, or simply being unable to concentrate on the questions effectively.
8. Inaccurate or Outdated Study Materials
- Using outdated or incomplete study materials can lead to a lack of preparation on recent amendments or changes in the law. Many candidates don’t update their resources or rely on unreliable guides.
9. Lack of Understanding of Exam Pattern and Syllabus
- You must have clear understanding of the syllabus. The candidates who are unfamiliar with the AIBE syllabus or exam pattern might focus on less important topics or miss out on heavily weighted sections. Knowing the weightage and format can help focus preparation on crucial areas.
How you could crack this exam?
- You must develop a study plan covering all sections, focusing on frequently tested areas.
- Familiarize yourself with the bare acts and keep handy a well-organized set of study materials.
- Mock tests and past papers are important step to improve speed and accuracy.
- Manage your time by practicing open-book skills, like using tabs to mark important sections.
- Manage stress with relaxation techniques, mock test simulations, and ample revision.
