I used to read the notes one day before I learn them even the practical subjects which indirectly helped me to study faster and without much burden as the next day when I used to learn all the words and lines used to be familiar to me, which thus reduced my workload.
6) Which are the easy subjects in Sem V?
All where equally hard in its way.

I preferred writing in bullets while writing in paragraphs I used to underline the important words or lines.
8) How do you crack case studies in theory and practical subjects?
Always read and keep your mind thinking. in practical subject used to practice but after practicing I used to never do written practice, I used to take a calculator and try to solve it by seeing itself, which in a regular basis helped me a lot and in practical’s I was able to score the highest mark , this practice was said to me by Ganesha Sir which helped me a lot.
9) Did you draw any diagram in any paper? Is it mandatory? Does it help to get more marks?
Yes if you draw a proper diagram it shows that you know the proper answer of the question asked and a diagram helps to easily understand what u are written as well to the corrector .

No I never kept a timetable.

11) How do you fight against mood swings and distractions during exam preparation?
There were a lot of distractions caused to me. I overcame it by setting small goals which I could achieve everyday. I used to be a part of social activities and used to concentrate on playing guitar and practicing MMA(martial arts) which easily helped me to fight against mood swings.

Would made test books on time and would ensure an adequate gap between the exams  and would defiantly make studies practical.

I had a friend who faced this problems but he was able to overcome this by talking more in English whenever we used to meet, finally his English had improved a may much within 2-3 months. I would recommend the same talk more , read more and practice writing. do create a habit of reading your own answers wherever a write your answers in a way it helps you to understand your mistakes and improve accordingly.
