How to prepare

• Foundation decides Ninja on its own — don't burn time there; bank the easy marks first.
• There is no negative marking, so never leave a question blank.
• You cannot go back to a section once it is submitted — pace each one separately.
• For Digital/Prime, the coding round carries the most weight: practise arrays, strings and basic DP to time.
