Here are the techniques which may be helpful during three hours.

1. Don't waste the time initially by reading all the questions in detail. Just go through all questions and READ THE REQUIREMENT TO THE QUESTIONS.

2. Start with the easiest question as it will boost your morale.

3. Don't waste your time by giving extra and irrelevant answers.

4. Read the requirement to the question carefully like if examiner require you to illustrate your answer, then you must have to illustrate as the marks of illustration are built in the marks allocated to the part. If the examiner require you to comment on statement, then you will have to tell him briefly about the background of the statement and tell him about the pros and cons of the statement and in the end give your conclusion based upon the aforesaid discussion

5. Last but not the least, simply apply 7cs while attempting any paper.

1. Know your syllabus and topics (buy yellow syllabus book)
2. Prepare for the topics from best books.
3. Always prepare for the full course. Donot go for the selective study.
4. Go through last five years past exams papers.
5. Always be consistent and never loose your temper.
6. Always attempt full question paper whether sure or not (my personal experience).
7. Try to be differentiated and be practicale in you approach.
8. Answer the question in three steps.
a) Ananlysis of question.
b) Full fill the requirement.
c) Give real life example where possible.
9. Plan a timetable for timely completion of course and then for revision and be strict to it.
10. Keep gaming for weekends and no tension.

Nice approach from members here.

Comin to Qadri's point, different books are suggested for different papers. And again study time is different for different students.
Most important is being consistent while ur studies. An hour a day is better than studin 10 hrs and then three days rest.

One more thing as many of u hav already mentioned Do not take tension, no panic at all (never means get fully relaxed like me)
Study for whole of the session but most important is last month. Time management ofcourse the key of all.

So things are gonna be like this
- Consistency
- Time management
- Dont panic while studies and attemting the xam.
- Planning Never start craming from first page, take out syllabai outlines and then prepare topic wise

At the end attemptin the paper is most crucial of all, how u perform in those three hours are gonna decide ur fate
- Last month is most crucial
