Red Flags During Last 30 Days

⚠️ If mock scores < 70%: Focus ONLY on weak chapters, skip strong ones
⚠️ If feeling overwhelmed: Take a half-day break, exercise, sleep
⚠️ If running out of time: Prioritize subjects with lowest mock scores
⚠️ If new syllabus topics not covered: Study NCERT text only (skip problems)
