The revision plan should be flexible as certain things take longer time than expected. Revise those topics that make you anxious. Revising the topics will boost confidence.

7.Mock test:

You can check the level of your preparation by taking mock test. It would be beneficial if you start with sectional mock test and then switch over to full mock tests which include all the sections. After taking mock test, analyze your performance and work on your weak areas.
