Previous Years' Papers:

This will help you gain an idea about the types of questions that can appear in the actual exam. Sometimes, it can also serve to be a good guess material too. There are probable chances of questions getting matched. Solve these papers with timers on so that you may get an idea of how much time you are taking to solve the paper. This in a way will help you manage your time in a proper way and check the time taken to solve a particular section.

 

Reference Books/Materials:

There are a number of books and reference materials that can really serve to be a good source of information for the AILET applicants. These books have sections divided in the way you will see in your question paper.
