If you want to have good career path, then you need to plan well,especially exams like GRE, TOEFI where the timing is limited and the attempts and accuracy is important, u need to have good knowledge on teh subject as well practice mock test. Mock tests are very eseential as it will help you to analyse where exactly u are lacking and how u can improve. Hope my suggestion has helped u.

I review repeatedly then make sure I take a rest then eat good food. I enjoy myself while reviewing and follow my schedule to rest. Descipline is very important. I don't go out with my friends during this time and I limit myself going anywhere when it is not necessary important.

Focus on your goals in life. This will give you the discipline to study every day for your upcoming exams. Make a timeline. If you are on a review schedule, follow their program but make sure you read books when at home. Read on the big books and do not focus on the mini-review books. Answer at least 50 past review questions every night and make sure you have the most reliable sources to base your answers. Practice test-taking strategies. Taking exams will not be that difficult if you know test-taking strategies. Lastly, believe in yourself so you can build up confidence. With enough knowledge, confidence and most especially prayers, you'll definitely pass every exam that comes along your way! Good luck!

Firstly you need to collect the study material and enroll for a short term training program if possible from a reputed institute in your area. You need desire in order to succeed more than just the ability itself.
