Tips for Kerala PSC CPO Exam 2026

• As the CPO/WCPO exam approaches, candidates should focus on effective last-minute strategies to maximize their performance. Rather than starting new topics, it is important to revise already studied materials, especially key areas like General Knowledge, Current Affairs, Simple Arithmetic, Mental Ability, and General English.

• Go through short notes, previous year question papers, and mock test results to strengthen your weak points.

• Allocate time for daily practice of model questions, particularly in sections where you often make mistakes. Solve at least one full-length mock test each day under exam conditions to improve time management and boost confidence. Avoid late-night studying; instead, ensure proper rest and a healthy routine.
