How to start preparation for any competitive exam?: Full Strategy

As I was also prepared for Bank Exams, through this four years of journey, I have learned many things; today, I am going to share some of my viewpoints on “how to prepare for any competitive exams” with all Fresher Aspirants and also those who are also pursuing this journey.

My father always said during my preparation time that to get a Government job, you need three things at a time, i.e., Luck, Caliva, and Patience. These three things are 100% required to get a govt job. But, if you are thinking of studying for 12-15 hours, there are better decisions than this because you have to do homework and social responsibilities. You are still determining whether it will work in today’s high-competition market, so both must continue together.

During the study period, you will get different obstacles from society and ignore them. If you have taken this step on the words of your father, mother, and friends, you should immediately stop the preparation. It takes 1-4 years. So, take your step wisely, not by others’ thoughts.

We are human beings, not pressure cookers. As you have seen in the movie 3 Idiots, the actor indirectly said that the cooker whistles due to the pressure created in the range. It is called a well-trained machine. In this way, continuously studying for 10-15 hrs is not a good process because there should be rest in your brain. You need to do exercise, play games and all is required. Only studying will not give you success.

And therefore, don’t depend on only one platform or organization. Prepare for all government exams and also do some part-time jobs. Time is moving, so give your input in the right direction. You even don’t know your future. So, rest, and do some part-time work related to the subject like Home Tutiony and others, it would help you financially.

Some View Point on How to crack any exam?

1. Understand Exam Syllabus and Pattern

Before preparing for the competitive exam, you must know about the syllabus and exam pattern. It would help if you analyzed each subject’s chapters and marks distribution. It will help you in planning your strategy for the exam.

2. Study Plan:

It would help if you systematically made a study plan to cover all topics according to your suitable time. It is necessary for every aspirant. Set your time according to the subjects. You need to analyze your performance, i.e., how much you did that day.

3. Practice Offline and Online Tests & Analyze:

To crack the exam, you need to do offline practice from different books with a timer, online mock tests, short quizzes, etc. It would help if you solved the previous year’s innovative questions. After giving mock tests or offline practice, you need to analyze the wrong and right questions. What is the best method to solve the question in a shorter period? More training will sharpen your concept, so exercise regularly is very important. Always try to find your weak areas and hard work into them.

4. Always Self-Motivated:

You need to be self-motivated so you can crack the test and think you have not broken a test; take a few days to rest and think of changing your technique again at that time and looking for your vulnerable zones well and then come back with the whole energy.

5. Stay Calm on the Exam Day: 

On exam day, you must calm your mind and not waste time with others. Keep quiet and think about your preparation. You correctly read the questions in the exam hall, don’t panic, and arrive at the exam hall as early as possible. If you are stuck in the question, skip it, don’t come back and try it, solve other questions.

6. Stay Healthy:

Aspirants have to take care of their health before the exam. Proper sleep on time, bringing food daily on time, exercising, taking breaks while needed, and managing time wisely, etc., are required for the aspirants to stay healthy and motivated. A healthy mind and body will help you stay focused and motivated throughout your preparation.

Prepare for Other Exams Also

You don’t prepare for only one exam at a time because the maximum syllabus is the same. If you follow only one direction, it will be your wrong decision. Because, at present, Government jobs vacancy is gradually going down. Sometimes, the states have suitable vacancies for a particular post, or the next year is different. Example: Bank Clerk Exam.

So, it would help if you had to think diversely. Focus on only one platform. It may also give you hopelessness. So, believe in all directions in the current scenario. In this way, you need to know how to prepare for the competitive exam. You concentrate on reinforcing the basic concepts well. You need to find out which exam will give you a job.

If your idea is solid and your thinking process of solving a question is speedy, you can easily crack the exam. It is the real story. If you are fresher, don’t run like Duranta Express; first, build your concept, work on it, and it will slowly increase your speed. Put a timer on the clock and practice well. Try to make the basic concept and gradually increase the hand speed and timer.
