How to make best use of the Prelims test solutions?
Is maintaining a dairy of mistakes advisable or short notes on books or highlighting the solutions? My aim is to retake the test papers (30+ in no) before exam + keep concepts where I falter again and again handy to glance before exam (Ex-amensalism vs commensalism, writs, 371 & A-J states). Anyone?
Shailputri,

How I use it is that I analyze the mistakes. Are the mistakes conceptual or silly mistakes? Are the mistakes just because I marked an option wrong by mistake?
I don't make notes of my silly mistakes. I just note down the conceptual mistakes and that too very briefly. I dont want to have bulky notes for these.
Also, I specifically note down anything new that comes up in the tests which I have never read before.
Also, I switch between noting down the concepts in a diary and making questions out of the options I got wrong on google sheets. This helps me in quick revision.
psyduck,ShailputriGreat. Could get an idea. Thanks a lot guys.@DM @sjerngal @Joeyisthebest
