What was your overall strategy? Did you follow a study schedule? If yes, please share the details.

I followed a schedule. Initially, focus was on completing the basics. Initially, I gave 3 hours each to Quant and Reasoning, 2 hours to English and 1 hour to General Awareness. Once I completed the syllabus, I just gave sectional mock for practice. So I reduced the time of Quant and Reasoning and in available time, I completed the banking awareness. After that, just giving mock test and doing analysis of that mock test. For General Awareness, I studied daily and revised it on weekly.

Did you face any hurdle as well? How did you overcome it?

Yes. I couldn’t clear exams initially. So, After that I analysed and found that I have to give importance to each and every subjects. That’s help me to clear exam. So, I studied every subject simultaneously. Try to avoid guess work. Try to maintain accuracy. Even if I attempt less, I made sure whatever I attempt, attempt with at least 90% accuracy.

Did PracticeMock help you in your success? Please elaborate.

Yes. I got exam level questions from PracticeMock. The level of questions and framing of questions is very good. I think after preparation of basics, you need a good mock to get the exam level feeling, specially in the mains where you have to be selective with the attempts. I think the mock tests, specially mains mock test provide me that.

What’s your message for the fellow aspirants who are preparing for competitive exams?

My advise to all the aspirants is that, believe in yourself, when no one is believing in you. Don’t blindly follow any others stretegy, because everyone is different and their strengths and weaknesses are different. Make your own strategy. Listen others strategy, see what is best for you from their strategy and apply on yourself. And don’t be panic with the failures, Just learn from them and move to the next exam, but make sure you don’t commit the same mistake again.
