Mazin says that due to coaching he was saved from distractions. During mock tests, Mazin adopted the strategy of solving Biology first, then Chemistry and finally Physics. Later he felt that this method is not correct. Then he changed his approach – first Chemistry, then Biology and finally Physics. He benefited more with this method.
