To qualify in the Patent Agent Examination(India)

I am an inventor and hold several patents in India, US, EU and other countries. I am dreaming for many years to appear in patent exam but some how could not make it.
Here is a reference of a book on patent exam which might be useful to me and others.
Read below.
This book aims to provide students as well as professionals an overview of the patents system arid relevant study material for qualifying in the Patent Agent Examination. It explains in detail the Indian Patent Act and Rules, licensing agreements and how to draft them, petitions, fees, timelines and forms. Besides, the book contains model answers to previous years' question papers and tips on the viva voce, which is the final frontier. Students should be well versed with the Indian Patent Act and Rules to qualify in the Patent Agent Examination; therefore, all Sections and Rules have been explained simply and in a consolidated table, and the model answers to the previous years' questions given in the book have been drafted in consultation with patent law experts. The book will be an immensely valuable resource to both professional Patent Agents and those who aspire to make a career in the complex but fascinating world of patents.
