Choice making in solving questions  here is more important as you will have a little knowledge of every question shall be there if u have done little a bit  a practice on each topic . After choosing questions, careful reading of question is needed, before writing & while writing so that you do not miss any important point.

Making note for each topic in paper 2 is very important wherein diagrams,verbatim defintions(by thinkers),examples & only core points should be noted without explanation so that you can revise in a less time and produce a good marks.

Topics from all sources should be integrated at one place.

Important lines from class notes should be on the lips like NR Murthy says “ our most important assets walk out everyday and we have to make sure they return” in context of HRM.
