Success Story of Mrigank Shanker| Cleared SBI PO

Mrigank Shanker’s Success Story

Hi, I am Mrigank and today I am sharing my success story with PracticeMock. I have given the following exams till now: IDBI ASSISTANT MANAGER (Direct Recruitment) ; SBI PO 2019; SBI PO 2018 (Missed final selection by 0.06 marks)

Section-wise Preparation Strategy

English Section Preparation Strategy

The utility of English Language is limitless. Directly it will help you get 90 Marks in mains (40 in English, 50 in Descriptive). Other than this, if you have good comprehending ability, it will also help you decode Logical Reasoning and Puzzles with slight ease. Even in Data Interpretation, tough language is used in Questions. Good command over language will help you tackle this section as well.

Quantitative Aptitude & Reasoning Section Preparation Strategy

First step would be Clearing basics. You can refer Meritshine (Abhishek sir and Samir sir) for this. Also, Infinitesimal (Rajan sir) channel has excellent videos. Refer these two YouTube channels. Other than this, Bank IQ can be used for Practice. These are best in business.

Overall Strategy, Study Schedule & Challenges Faced

I always believed in Quality over Quantity. 5-6 Quality hours daily will suffice for final selection. Last year when I missed final selection by 0.06 Marks, I introspected and found that Maths and Reasoning were two sections which were the roadblock. English and GA has always been good. I diverted 70% of my time and energy towards that two section but simultaneously I kept working on English and GA as well. I cleared concepts from the sources mentioned above. Then practice. Once you leave the fear behind, it all boils down to Practice.

How did PracticeMock help you?

In this journey, if I have to mention that one catalyst that has kept all my preparation together, that has to be PRACTICEMOCK. I purchased Prime Package which covers almost all the exams and I can bet my life on it that it has been my best investment till date. I am going to appear for RBI Grade B as well in the coming month and that Package will be beneficial for RBI as well. The quality of Questions, whether it be English, DI, Reasoning, or GA, are superb and one notch above Exam level. So, when you attempt the actual exam you’ll never feel scared. I thank PracticeMock for this. Pricing is also on the affordable side giving the Quality. So that’s a plus as well.

Message for the Fellow Aspirants

Since I am a literature student, I would like to share a line of one of my favourite writers T.S.Eliot : “Only those who risk going too far can possibly know how far one can go.” So, no matter how outrageous the circumstances turn out to be, keep trying, keep fighting. It’s always darkest just before the dawn.
