✋ 7 Exam Day Mistakes to Avoid in UPSC Prelims 2026 this Sunday by Dr.Mrunal Patel

📡 Live UPSC Prelims 2026 Answerkey on Sunday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFaIh-GVxKQ @upscunstoppables Mistake 1 — Wrong Venue: Hall ticket lists a school, but multiple numbered buildings exist. Reach early to find the exact block. Mistake 2 — Listening to Others: Ignore exam-hall conversations. Remarks about guaranteed topics or high cutoffs are stress triggers that hurt your Paper 2 performance. Mistake 3 — No Wristwatch: Carry a regular analogue or basic digital wristwatch, not a smartwatch. Track your MCQ run rate. CSAT sitter questions take 5+ minutes — your watch tells you when to skip. Mistake 4 — Marking Only Option A: Read all four options before marking. Check whether the question asks for the CORRECT or the INCORRECT statement. Mistake 5 — Arguing with Supervisors: Government exam venues have poor conditions. Arguing wastes time and mental focus. Accept and concentrate on the paper. Mistake 6 — Blame After Failure: First-attempt failure is statistically common. Take one lesson — identify the preparation gap — and plan the next attempt. Mistake 7 — Media After Paper 1: Skip bloggers outside the hall. Use the break for CSAT revision. After both papers, watch Mrunal's live UPSC Prelims answer key and analysis on the Unacademy channel. Carry: valid photo ID, black ballpoint pen. Leave behind all valuables. ALTERNATIVE TITLES: 1. UPSC Prelims Exam Day Strategy: 7 Mistakes Every Aspirant Must Avoid 2.
