Some Common Tips and Strategies

All the applicants need to avoid last minute of exam tensions and all the panicking scenarios as much as possible. For that they need to adopt right exam strategies, so we are providing here a list of common exam tips and strategies that will eventually help all the participants to prepare properly for the above mentioned examinations.

Proper Mindset

First you will have to set up your mind properly in order to increase your chances. Lakhs of people are applying for these two exams, so you will have to be different from others. Don’t panic ever. You won’t have to compete with 50 lakh odd people, as most of them are not worthy enough for competitions. Just tell yourself, “Yes, I can do it,” and believe me my friend you will do it, if your mindset is strong enough and you are true enough to yourself.

Strengthen Your Reason

You need to strengthen your reason in order to be selected. First ask yourself why this job is necessary to you. If you can find a strong enough “why”, then you don’t need to worry about “how to achieve it”. Your why will define and teach you how to prepare properly in any situation. Your why will drive you to the glorious path of success.

Time Management

Proper Time Management is one of the crucial factors in every competitive exam. Here the applicant will be given only 2 hours to answer 200 odd questions i.e. not so easy. So you need to rethink and strategize well enough to increase your chances of getting selection. First you need to understand your strengths and weaknesses. My suggestion is to start with the General Knowledge/Current Affairs portion, as these questions would not take much time of yours. Don’t waste too much of time on a single question, leave it and try another one. You need to answer as much questions as you can from the section of your strength. 

Practice Question Papers/Mock Tests

You need to practice previous question papers quite frequently.  My suggestion is to first collect previous year question papers, then set your clock for two hours, and start solving it for exact two years. After that evaluate the whole paper, and check your outcome. You need to better your previous outcome as many times as possible. Self-evaluation is very important to any competitive exam success. Solving quite a few question papers will increase your overall speed and confidence that will surely give you an ultra boost in the real examination hall.

Prepare Current Affairs and English

Current Affairs and English language are the sections to score as high as possible, as the questions of these two sections will be easier than the other two i.e. reasoning and math. So you need to prepare this two properly, as you need to take full advantage of it.

For Current Affairs: For all the latest current affairs you can visit this blog regularly.

For English: For English language you will need to read the local English newspaper on a daily basis. While reading note down every new word to your diary, as it will increase your vocabulary. Don’t forget to check the synonyms, antonyms and usage of the words that you would note down. Try to read English literatures as much as possible, and start to adopt English conversation in a friendly atmosphere.
