Current Affairs: Revision Strategy
The objective of current-affairs revision is retention and application, not collecting unlimited information.

Active Recall
Close your notes and reproduce key facts from memory. Then attempt MCQs without looking at the answer. Maintain an error notebook for facts and concepts repeatedly missed.
Exam Rule
Prioritise syllabus relevance and repeat revision of high-yield themes rather than endlessly adding new sources.
