The core reframing
This is not a knowledge test. The board already knows you're knowledgeable — you cleared Mains. They are deciding whether they'd be comfortable with you holding power over citizens' lives.
When to start
The day you fill your DAF — not after Mains results. The DAF-based question bank takes weeks to build properly.
What only you can supply
Your DAF answers, your home-state dossier, and the current affairs of your interview period. This folder gives you the method; the content is personal.
