Time Management For Exam

Hey there! Let me share something really important that I’ve noticed from talking to many law students at KSLU. You know what’s interesting? I’ve seen so many of my friends who are absolutely brilliant at their subjects – they know every case law, every section, every principle by heart – but when it comes to the actual exam, they end up disappointed with their results. And the reason isn’t lack of knowledge; it’s something much simpler yet crucial: time management and answer strategy.

Here’s the thing that most students don’t realize: you can write the most amazing, detailed answer for an 8-mark question, but you’ll still only get 8 marks maximum. That’s it! The examiner can’t give you 10 marks for an 8-mark question, no matter how brilliant your answer is. But here’s what happens – students get so excited about a topic they know well that they spend 45 minutes writing a masterpiece for that 8-mark question, and then they’re left scrambling for time to attempt the remaining questions.

The Golden Rule: It’s much better to attempt all questions adequately rather than writing perfect answers for just a few questions. Think about it this way – if you write an excellent answer for 3 questions worth 16 marks each (that’s 48 marks) but leave 2 questions unattempted, you’ve lost 32 marks right there! On the other hand, if you write decent answers for all 5 questions, even if you get 12-13 marks per question instead of the full 16, you’ll still score around 60-65 marks, which is much better.

Here’s my practical time breakdown that actually works: Allocate 35-40 minutes for Question 9 (the mandatory problems worth 20 marks) – this gives you enough time to solve two problems thoroughly. Then, spend 30-32 minutes on each of your five essay questions (16 marks each) – this is perfect timing to cover all essential points without getting carried away. Finally, keep 10-15 minutes for review – use this time to quickly check your answers, add any forgotten points, and ensure you’ve attempted everything.

Here’s my practical advice: When you see a question you absolutely love and know everything about, resist the urge to write everything you know. Instead, stick to your time limit of 30-32 minutes per essay question, cover the essential points clearly, and move on to the next question. Remember, consistency across all questions beats perfection in a few questions.

Your exam strategy should be like a balanced meal – a little bit of everything rather than gorging on just your favourite dish. Trust me, this approach will definitely give you a better percentage and help you avoid those heartbreaking situations where you know you could have scored more if only you had managed your time better.

So next time you’re in that exam hall, keep an eye on the clock, stick to your time plan, and remember – attempt everything, perfect nothing. Your overall sem percentage will improve with this strategy.

Language Choice

You have the flexibility to write your entire examination in either English or Kannada completely. However, there’s an important rule: you cannot mix languages within the same paper. Choose one language and stick to it throughout your entire answer sheet.
