BPUT

In this article I am going to jot down a few tips to prepare well for BPUT exam.

1. The syllabus for the exam is significant. Sometimes the course may not be completed in the college properly, but since the exam paper is set by the university the whole syllabus must be prepared.
2. Usually students do not study on a regular basis during the semester when the exams are afar. As a result a lot of syllabus pileup to be studied just before the exam. If too much syllabus remains to be studied right before the exam one is likely to develop anxiety, stress and lack of confidence. So one who can study in small amounts on a daily basis., will have a great advantage over others. He will be able to appear the exam with confidence
3. Practice solving problems. Just a casual reading cannot ensure understanding. Without practicing problem solving you are likely to commit many silly mistakes. Even if it appears to you during preparation that you will be able to solve a problem if it comes in the exam, you shouldn’t neglect solving them. Its better to commit the mistakes during the preparation, because if you don’t commit the mistakes now you will certainly commit it during the exam.
4. The question paper is highly unpredictable. Sometimes students do selective study by looking at last 2-3 years question papers. But when they appear in the exam, to their surprise they see a lot of questions from the section which they left out. So study everything in the syllabus. Don’t leave anything for chance. It won’t make much of a difference if you are lucky enough to not to get any questions from the sections you left. But if questions comes primarily from the sections that you neglected studying, you may get a backlog. Backlogs can be determining factors during the job interviews. So study everything.
5. Be concept oriented. Gone are the days of school, when we could mug up a few questions and could expect those questions in the exam. BPUT exam papers are usually conceptually oriented. If your concept is thorough you will be able to answer almost all the questions.
6. Self prepared notes will be of great help before the exam. Because the syllabus for BPUT exams is huge, sometimes you may have to study a complete book to cover everything. But everything in the book may not be relevant to the syllabus. One of the wisest thing to do is the prepare your own notes during the semester. This is your own notes; you yourself have prepared it. So just a glance at your own notes before the exam will remind you much more than skimming through a huge book. A self prepared notes is a powerful revision tool. If you follow this one rule: to get in to the habit of preparing notes, believe me, BPUT exams will be just a cake walk.
7. Questions in the exam paper are primarily from a few selected books. Ask your seniors and teachers about which book is current and popularly followed. Most questions come from a few selected books that majority of teachers and students follow.

And yes, have fun. Live life. Make friends. College isn’t just to mug a few books. You come to college to develop a personality, grow intellectually, and tpo learn to manage things. The four years of engineering, probably, will be the most enjoyable period of your life. Wishing you the best in your career and life.
