When you attempt mock tests regularly and analyse them, you become more confident in your preparation. Most of the toppers&#8217; strategy is to include mock tests as a tool in their daily task. The skill of picking up the easy questions in an exam and answering them quickly comes with a lot of practice. There will be many questions in each section of the Prelims and mains exam that will be of a moderate to difficult level; you need to choose which questions should be answered first. Remember that there is a negative marking of 1\/4th of the marks allotted to the questions. Therefore, attempting the questions with 100% accuracy along with maintaining the speed becomes essential. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Join our exclusive Telegram group where our experts are ready to answer all your queries, guide you in banking exam preparation, and give personalized tips to boost your success.
