1.Get hold of TN Manoharan.

2.IPCC exposure would help u. So b confident. No point in getting tensed.

If u belong to TN.. recollect this one ....' Less tension more work. More work less tension..' :-)

3. Go in the order given here..

4. Selected case laws holds 16 marks. Splinter the task and be consistent in process. For eg: read 20 today. Tomo revise those 20 and read yet 20. Rely on this alone for case laws. No need to mug up every other case.

5. Don't miss supplementary.

All will be well

Yes, one can go for self-study ........

I suggest u 2 options for self-study:
