RRB ALP CBT STAGE 2: How to Attempt the Exam

• No blind guesswork. The number of questions you need to attempt cannot be pre-determined as it is a function of the level of difficulty. Just keep a fine balance of accuracy and speed. Remember that there is 1/3^rd of negative marking for every wrong answer. Therefore, avoid guess work as much possible. Accuracy is as important as speed in this exam. Try the elimination method to eliminate 2-3 options before making calculated guesses, and refrain from any blind guesswork.
• Do not get stuck on one question and waste your time. You can always come back to it in case you have time left.
