IBPS Clerk Exam Preparation – Mistakes to be Avoided

Not Covering the challenging topics which were left out during SBI Clerk, RRB PO, Clerk , or in IDBI exams

After appearing for so many exams already this year, you have enough experience to be well aware of your weak subjects or topics. The conceptual aspects which still aren’t strong should be prioritised. This is a good time to cover them thoroughly, no matter which section or topic. The last year’s cut-offs and vacancy list, you will have to be prepared with the entire syllabus, or you might not clear the exam.

Not taking Regular Mocks before appearing for the Exam  

Focus more on Mock Test Series if you are somebody who has already covered the syllabus well. It’s better to give mocks to gain maximum confidence and you can surely work on every little mistake or missing piece for an exemplary preparation for the IBPS Clerk exam 2021.

For you to maximise your speed and accuracy you need to follow the below mentioned advice:

You will have to score 30 or 30+ in Reasoning

The reasoning is where you can score high if compared with quant. For most people reasoning is easy if compared with quants. But this doesn’t mean you have to neglect quants but the reasoning is where you should make your attempts at first so that you can assure maximum marks in at least one of the three sections. And the ones who are good at quants can take dual advantage by maximizing their attempts with accuracy.

Attempt Arithmetic at Last While Attempting the Quant Section

Questions like simplification, quadratic equations, approximation, wrong numbers, and missing numbers are the easiest ones. Attempt them first as your priority questions. This shall help you in gaining the maximum mark share in less time because these questions can be solved at maximum speed. Now you can approach DI questions. Try to do calculations in your mind if possible as it will make your attempts at a good speed. Then you should solve the arithmetic questions at last.

Prioritise Static RC over Factual RC in English

Most probably for IBPS Clerk, you will get to see a static RC which you can attempt at the beginning as it’s easy to solve and doesn’t consume much of your time. But if the RC is factual then attempt it in the end as it can take time. It’s better to secure your marks as much as possible in the given time, be it any section.
