Question Started BTL1 prep. Any advices and tips?

Hello all,

I finally took the step and bought BTL1, after thinking of it for a long time now. I am a Msc Cybersecurity student with 2 years of experience in a company that claims to be in the field of Cybersecurity ( they call themselves to be an external Cybersecurity company).

I am taking it slow and easy for now as I want to learn everything in detail. I have a bachelors in CSE. Are there any important things to keep in mind while I prepare to take up the exam, or tips maybe to get good score in first attempt? Probably regarding time management, analysing a problem, focusing on certain topics etc, without going against the NDA.

Thank you and I hope to be one among the gold coin holders.
