Quantitative Aptitude Section Preparation Strategy

Quantitative Aptitude was my weakest section for which I had to devote 7-8 hours regularly as I didn’t had basic concepts cleared. So, it took first 6-7 months to start scoring good marks in this section. I’m still weak in many topics of this section.

Reasoning Section Preparation Strategy

Reasoning is something which everyone does for the first time in life while preparing, be it a science or commerce or arts graduate. So, yes it was considerably ok-ish for me as I had grasped to solve a puzzle (prelims level) within 3mins and mains in 7-8 minutes(mains level) in around 4-5 months.

General Awareness Section Preparation Strategy

I followed YouTube for Current Affairs as memorizing GA is tough for me. So, I always do last 3-4 months GK before any mains exam.

Computer Awareness Section Preparation Strategy

I had basic knowledge of computers and as I’m a technology freak, so yes thing that can be guessed with probability was my strength and most of the time the answers were correct.

Overall Strategy, Study Schedule & Challenges Faced

Yes of course everyone should have a study schedule. I wake up at 6 am and start from 6.3am to 9am then had to prepare for office as I was also engaged in ONGC on contract basis. After reaching office whenever there used to be free time I used to solve Data Interpretation and high level puzzles. Later after coming home, I used to sleep for an hour and then used to start my mocks from 7pm to 10pm(mains mock) and after dinner again from 11.30pm to 12.30am used to update my Current Affairs knowledge.

Yes, Quantitative Aptitude was the main hurdle for me as I didn’t had any concepts cleared as I mentioned earlier. So, it took me 6-7 months to just learn concepts and then slowly started learning ways to solve high level maths. And yes, one thing I learnt is that the day you stop fearing and running away from your weakness is the day you started getting close to your success. So, stop fearing and face it as I was scared of maths as hell but now I know how to face and also to tackle and solve high level questions. It’s only the determination, dedication and consistency that would help you eventually to success.

How did PracticeMock help you?

Yes, PracticeMock helped me in a great way as I took initially just SBI clerk mocks and later realized that to take full mock subscription would be much beneficial as strategically it would cost me lesser to buy full mock for a year subscription than to buy individually for each exam.
