Tip

Tip 1 : Practice questions in a time bound manner. Set a timer and solve the questions within that time frame only as the interview is also going to be time bound.

Tip 2 : Always revise. Mark the questions that you couldn't solve in the first go. Revise them again after a week or 2 so that the concepts become more clear.
