Attempt before analysis

Sit every paper for two hours with one-third negative marking. Reviewing questions first destroys its value as a benchmark.

Track the reason for every miss

Separate missing knowledge from statement-reading errors and risky guesses. Each problem needs a different fix.

Use recent papers first

Start with 2025 and work backwards. Recent papers best represent the current statement-heavy format and CSAT difficulty.
