📌 How to Use These PYQ Papers Effectively

Start Early

Begin solving PYQs at least 4–6 weeks before exams to identify weak topics and build exam stamina.

Spot Repeating Questions

Compare papers across 3–4 years to find questions that repeat — these are high-priority topics.

Time Yourself

Solve each paper under timed conditions (3 hours) to improve speed and time management in the actual exam.

Focus on Numericals

Tool & Die papers are heavy on numericals. Practice all calculation-based questions from each year.
