1. If you have prepared for CAT, the sections involving quantitative ability and verbal ability shall not be an issue
2. Practise as many mock tests as possible as they give you the real picture of the exam
3. Give emphasis to story writing, pick any four pictures you like and frame a story get it read by somebody else
4. Have a good hang of typing out long paragraphs since the keyboards at the centres may not be as per your comfort
5. Pick up general topics and write about them from all perspectives for eg. Is privatisation good for the economy? Think for both its pros and cons and have a neutral stand.
6. Do practise questions on divergent and convergent thinking as they might appear confusing in the first go

1. MICAT has a descriptive section which requires one to weave a story from 4 images, usually unrelated. If you are not from a creative background, it would be wise to practice a few of those
2. In the psychometric section honesty is the best policy. Try not to think too much same with the convergent-divergent thinking, usually, your first instinct is correct. Try not to overthink
3. Don't forget quants. Know your basics and practice well
4. Read current affairs for GK
5. There is negative marking in some sections, so sometimes it may be wise to leave some questions

Hope this article helps the potential candidates in preparing for MICAT 2.
