Preparation Strategy
- Map Every Section to Time: ECGC PO splits 200 questions across 1 section in 140 minutes — decide a per-section time budget before test day so no single section eats your buffer.
- Prioritize the Syllabus by Weight: Focus first on Reasoning and English Language, then move to Quantitative Aptitude, General Awareness, Insurance Aptitude — these are the subjects tested in the actual paper structure.
- Respect the Negative Marking: A wrong answer costs 0.25 mark(s), so only attempt a question when you can eliminate at least two options — guessing blind against this penalty is a net loss over a full paper.
- Simulate the Real Timer: Take full-length 140-minute mock tests on YourMockTest under exam conditions before attempting the real ECGC PO — pacing under pressure is a separate skill from knowing the syllabus.
- Review Every Mistake: After each mock, spend more time reviewing wrong answers than attempting new questions — a repeated mistake in practice is a guaranteed mistake in the real exam.
