Error log: Record mistakes from every mock and dictation session, and revise the log weekly.
Monthly current affairs: Close each month with a one-page summary of key events and judgments.
Legal word bank: Collect terms such as petitioner, respondent, affidavit and adjournment with correct spellings and shorthand outlines.
Reliable Sources for Notes
Bare text of the Constitution: Use the official text for Articles 124 to 147 and related articles instead of paraphrased summaries.
Supreme Court Rules, 2013: Read the Rules on the Supreme Court website, since questions can test exact wording.
Official notices: Keep the latest recruitment notice handy so your notes match the current pattern and qualifying marks.
