  <h2>How to prepare</h2>
  <div class="haryana-sas-prep-item">
    <p><strong>1. Anchor on the rules, not the textbook.</strong> Three of the five Part-I papers (CSR, Audit/Financial Regulation, Local Rules &amp; PWD Code) are "with books" &mdash; success depends on knowing exactly which rule answers each question. Build a flagged tab system in your physical copy.</p>
    <p><strong>2. The "practical" 50% rule.</strong> Most Part-I and Part-II papers explicitly state that at least 50% of the questions are practical (salary bills, deductions, classification of expenditure, costing exercises). Solving past papers from this archive is more useful than re-reading theory.</p>
    <p><strong>3. Sequence:</strong> Part-I must be cleared before Part-II. Most candidates spend the first cycle clearing 2-3 subjects of Part-I (with the 60% subject-exemption rule) and the next cycle finishing the rest.</p>
    <p><strong>4. Practice quizzes.</strong> Our topic-wise <a href="/exam/haryana-sas/practice-quiz">practice quizzes</a> cover both parts &mdash; the first quiz on each topic is free, the rest are 50 coins each. Open the exam page and start with whichever subject you're weakest in.</p>
