  4. 3-4 months approx are enough to prepare.
  5. Try to make your own shortcuts.
  6. Practice papers (the most important)you have to beat the time there and for this you should increase your speed.   I advise you to have some practice papers which is available easily on market.
  7.  Don't focus on single subject only you have to prepare all of four subjects   try to study atleast two of them daily.
  8. Please do not buy any single book which covers all the four sections of exam have separate books and  separate study material for each section.
