Be it the English language, numerical ability and reasoning aptitude, your concepts have to be crystal clear. More importantly, practice as many questions on them as possible and solve all kinds of questions without any time limit. You never know which kind is waiting in the question paper to surprise you. Take your time to practice different types of questions until March 31, 2023, amidst taking mini mocks and topic tests with time limits. These tests will provide you a detailed explanation of incorrectly done questions and will help you identify where you went wrong.

Practice via mock tests for a 360º review

April 1, 2023, onwards, start taking a mock test per day. Spend the remaining day in reviewing the analysis. Also, you need to work on the areas you need to improve on, as highlighted by the analysis. Keep a balance between the following three tasks: solving mock/sectional tests, reviewing them and working on the feedback. If you stay committed to these three tasks, your percentile should improve over a period of time. Keep a tab on the percentile as well and remember that you need to be in the top 5 percentile to think about cracking the prelims.

Be ready for surprises

As a bank employee, you are supposed to be surprised by different RBI policies time to time and by different kinds of customers. You need to tackle these factors and arrange them accordingly without losing your focus. This is probably the reason the banking exams surprise you from time to time. They might like to check your willingness to handle new things and your readiness to change. Like some banking exams this year, you may encounter some changes in terms of the novelty of questions.

Remember, whatever form the question may take it will come down to the basic concept. Your job is to stay calm and find out what the question is trying to find. Also remember that if it’s new for you, it’s new for other aspirants as well. Sectional/Mock tests incorporate new kinds of questions which may help you in dealing with this kind of situation.
