"i have done my concepts nicely, but i am not able to apply it under timed pressure, "
Do you do the Qs without timings?? That might not be very good for the real exam because- I feel in the real exam even the tough Qs (at least some of them) can be done if you would spend 3-4 mins on them but then each block has 5-8 such Qs (this is of course subjective) and so it is better that you get used to reading Qs very quickly
Also repeating Qs might not be that useful esp if you remember the Q and so you know that B is the right answer- not because you remembered the concept and worked it out but just because you remembered the answer- thats just a waste of time because, you will have to read each Q in the exam and figure out what the Answer is and this takes time
Unfortunately, I dont know what other advice to give apart from trying to look at askdoc's post on step2CK preparation and mymeghji's post
