How to Build a Mistake Log for Quantitative Aptitude

· Learn24x7

After each practice set, record the question identifier, your wrong approach, and the correct principle in one or two lines. Tag errors as concept, careless, or time pressure so weekly analytics stay honest.

Revisit tagged items on a schedule: careless mistakes after one day, concept gaps after three days, and integrated mixed drills every two weeks. Pair the log with a formula sheet you maintain yourself—writing reinforces memory better than highlighting PDFs.

Over time, your log becomes a personal textbook weighted toward your real weaknesses, which is far more efficient than rereading entire chapters.
