1. Finish fundamentals first
May, June and July are the months for the fundamentals. For late starters, fundamentals should be completed latest by mid- September.
You should put in equal effort in Quantitative aptitude, Vocabulary, Reading Comprehension and Data Interpretation. You should not try to take short-cuts as there is no substitute to the fundas.
