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.
