PracticeMock’s Conversation with Hema S

Let’s find out how Hema turned his dream into a reality:

Q. Please brief us on when you started preparing for the competitive exams and how your preparation journey was.

I started my journey on Mar 22, 2023. In the 1st attempt, I was able to clear almost all prelims. But my mains scores were very low. Then I thought of fully concentrating on the mains and also being able to give a good attempt in all main papers. I was expecting to clear the RRB clerk, but unfortunately, I was not able to crack it. But finally made it to the IBPS Clerk.

Q. Which exams did you appear in till date and what were their results?

I gave almost all banking and insurance exams, and all results were published.

Q. How did you prepare for the English section?

I started watching basic videos and then started reading newspapers and books. Then sectional tests and mains mocks proved to be the cherry on the top.

Q. What was your strategy for the General Awareness section?

The only way for the GA section is to study and revise and revise and revise.

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

On a daily basis, I included mocks, whether they were pre- or mains, and then analyzed them. Then GA with some revisions and newspaper reading .

Q. Did you face any hurdles as well? How did you overcome it?

Initially it was very hard for me to focus even for an hour. But step by step I improved. Now I am able to study for 10 hours.

Q. Did PracticeMock help you in your success? Please elaborate.

Yes. PracticeMock was the 1st platform I chose. Its quality of questions is top-notch. Even though it was slightly on their tougher side, by practicing it, exams seem like a cakewalk to me. Especially GA free quizzes and topic-wise tests are awesome.

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

Stay disciplined . Be consistent and practice rigorously to achieve your dreams.

Takeaway:
Hema’s journey reminds us that success doesn’t always come easy. But with patience, persistence, and the right preparation tools, it’s absolutely attainable. Her step-by-step progress from struggling with focus to achieving a 10-hour study routine is nothing short of inspiring. Whether you’re at the beginning of your exam journey or facing a rough patch, let Hema’s experience be your motivation: stay consistent, trust the process, and keep going. Your success is just around the corner.
