Approach
one rapid pass over high-weight topics, with a short review of the weakest

This 5-day block gives you 5 days to work through 45 weighted NABTEB topics across 5 subjects — roughly 9.0 new topics a day at 6–8 hours of focused study. That pace is brisk but survivable if you protect your highest-weight subjects first.

NABTEB marks are not spread evenly across subjects. Physics, Mathematics, and Biology carry the heaviest weightage in recent papers, so this plan front-loads them — so they get your first and best hours, before fatigue sets in. Cover NABTEB's weight 4–5 topics properly, starting with Physics, Mathematics, and Biology. Touch weight-3 topics only if you finish early; skip weight 1–2 entirely.

5 days is enough for one disciplined pass over the high-weight portion of NABTEB, not the full 45-topic syllabus. The trap is starting too slow. Begin with the heaviest subjects on day one — you do not have a buffer week.

What to prioritise & cut

Cover NABTEB's weight 4–5 topics properly, starting with Physics, Mathematics, and Biology. Touch weight-3 topics only if you finish early; skip weight 1–2 entirely.

Mock tests & revision

Sit two or three timed previous-year NABTEB papers in the second half and review every wrong answer the same day.

Weekly rhythm

Front-load new NABTEB learning into the first 60% of days; reserve the last 40% for previous-year papers and error review.

Subject-wise topic split

How many hours a day does this NABTEB 5-day block need? +

Plan for 6–8 hours of focused study, covering about 9.0 new topics a day. Front-load new NABTEB learning into the first 60% of days; reserve the last 40% for previous-year papers and error review.

What should I skip if I am short on time? +

Cover NABTEB's weight 4–5 topics properly, starting with Physics, Mathematics, and Biology. Touch weight-3 topics only if you finish early; skip weight 1–2 entirely.

When should I start mock tests on this plan? +

Sit two or three timed previous-year NABTEB papers in the second half and review every wrong answer the same day.
