I'm a recent grad from one of the T1 NLUs working as an A0. I know AIBE is supposed to be a sham and super easy, but just wanted to get everyone's perspective - how are we supposed to prep for this exam? Just read the table of content of all the bare acts we're allowed to carry? Do the past year exams? Not sure exactly what to expect - everyone just says it's super easy.
AIBE is quite honestly a cakewalk. It is easy. If you can manage the same however, do try and attempt a paper or two (you could get the past papers online, I guess), and IF POSSIBLE, try to do the same within the actual time-limit and in the actual setting. AIBE is less about preparing for the exam, and more about how you take the exam.
BEFORE THE EXAM/ EXAM-PREP 1. Read the contents of the Bare Acts.
2. This might sound as if I am pulling your leg, but in all honesty, know the names of the Acts which you would be carrying
3. I had put flags/ Post-It type notes on the first page of the Bare Acts I was carrying. This helped me pick out the one which I really wanted for a particular question, instead of having to turn to the cover-page. Saved me a ton of time
4. As stated earlier, try and attempt 1-2 past papers. The answers- you might not even have to reach out to the Bare Act/s. OMR sheet marking EATS into those three hours.
5. Be prepared to attempt some questions pertaining to landmark judgements.
DAY OF THE EXAM/ DURING THE EXAM
Naturally, carry the necessary documents, stationery material, etc.
1. Reach your centre early. Gives you time to set up your workspace the way you want it. Setting out 15+ Bare Acts in the most easily accessible manner, given the space constraints at some centres is no joke.
2. Be very careful and meticulous in filling up the necessary details on the OMR sheet.
3. No negative marking. So attempt every question.
4. Keep an eye on the watch. Time does seem to go veeeeery slow in the first 2 hours, and within a flash, it is time to turn in your OMR sheet.
Thanks!
1. Go for the exam.
2. Make sure you attempt everything.
You pass.
Even kids in third rated local law colleges don't prepare for AIBE

Like why do we even have to give this exam?
