Take time to figure out why each question is asked and what it’s testing.

For puzzles, aptitude, or tricky logic questions, tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Deepseek can help you explore the reasoning if no explanation is provided. The goal is to build understanding, not just finish papers.

For GK, treat each question as a building block for your knowledge base. You can’t know everything, so focus on solid fundamentals. Avoid falling into a rabbit hole — there’s always more to learn, but a strong foundation is what counts.

Most importantly, approach everything from a place of love. If the prep ever stops being enjoyable, take a break. Do something else, recharge, and come back. You entered design because you love the process — don’t let preparation make you hate it.
