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, or even if it’s any RC that seems time-consuming, leave it for the end. It’s better to secure your marks as much as possible in the given time, be it any section.

Regular Mock Tests

There is nothing better than mock tests to track your English preparation or even for checking your base marks. The all-India rank provided by PracticeMock in their mock tests helps you in identifying where you stand today and how far you need to travel to your final destination
