This 30-day blueprint will help you cover key areas in a structured way. It uses simple strategies and short study sessions. It also helps you stay motivated without burning out.
In this guide, you will learn how to plan your days to cover essential topics. You will also see tips on managing stress, taking practice tests, and boosting your confidence. By the end, you will feel ready to face the LNMDCAT exam.
Why a 30-Day Plan Helps
A 30-day plan is short enough to feel urgent. It makes you take action right away. At the same time, it is long enough to cover the main topics in LNMDCAT. Each day of this plan will have a clear task. It will help you see progress and stay on track.
This plan also prevents you from leaving everything until the last minute. It breaks the syllabus into easy steps. That way, you can focus on smaller goals each day. Short daily goals add up to big results.
