Q1. Please brief us on when did you start preparing for the competitive exams and how was your preparation journey?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nI started appearing for exams in 2022, but at that point, I didn\u2019t study for them, I just gave a couple of exams and appear for exam, but even with minimum preparation, I cracked ibps po\u2019 s pre, that boosted my confidence, which resulted In better results. In 2023 as well, I didn\u2019t study much because I didn\u2019t wanna join any job that soon, but last year, I started preparing for regulatory exams, and that helped me clear all the banking exams. I was never that serious aspirant who abandoned joy, distractions or quality time with friends, which proves that there\u2019s no single strategy to clear these exams, it varies from person to person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Q2. Which exams have you appeared in to date, and what were their results?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nI appeared in RBI grade B and IRDAI Grade A, in which I couldn\u2019t clear pre. In banking sector I appeared in IBPS PO, IBPS Clerk, RRB PO, RRB Clerk and SBI clerk, out of these I cleared every exam expect RRB PO, in which I missed the Final Cut off by border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Q3. How did you prepare for the English section?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nEnglish has always been my forte, so I didn\u2019t have to prepare for it, I just gave mocks for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Q4. How did you prepare for the Quantitative Aptitude section?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nI studied from free YouTube channels for basics of quant, and solved checklists at the beginning of my preparations. Then mocks helped me gain speed and accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Q5. How did you prepare for the Reasoning section?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nI studied a few topics from YouTube and practiced through mocks and checklists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Q6. What was your strategy for the General Awareness section? (If Applicable)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nGA has never been my strong suit, but I tried to cover more financial new, banking awareness and MOUs. I skipped obituaries, books, days, sports etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Q7. What was your overall strategy? Did you follow a study schedule? If yes, please share the details.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nAs I mentioned earlier, I didn\u2019t have any strategy for these exams, I only gave mocks to improve my speed and accuracy. I just focused on type of questions I select in exams and prepare them well through mock tests, I never tried to cover everything, and i guess that helped me succeed in these exams . Also, one must take time and ponder on what suits them the best, rather than focusing on strategies mentioned by toppers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Q8. Did you face any hurdles as well? How did you overcome it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nNo, by god\u2019s grace, I never faced any hurdle in my preparations. All the circumstances were favourable and I got all the possible support from my peers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Q9. Did PracticeMock help you in your success? Please elaborate.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nYes, the interface and the level of mocks it offer, helped me a lot in my journey. Also, the free e-books that PM offers has been of great help for GA to me. I\u2019m very grateful for PM for providing such a great experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Q10. What’s your message for the fellow aspirants who are preparing for competitive exams?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIf not today, then surely someday, time and destiny will favour you, but only when you keep striving for it. So, don\u2019t lose hope if you\u2019ve scored less in a few mocks or exams, let bygones be bygones and focus on the upcoming exams. Also, don\u2019t try to accommodate your schedule similar to a few toppers, because everyone\u2019s journey, experiences, abilities and circumstances are unique, so try to find a strategy or schedule that suits you the best, it\u2019s ok if it doesn\u2019t make sense to anyone but you. Good luck!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If there\u2019s one thing you should take away from Katyayni\u2019s journey, it\u2019s this \u2014 there is no \u201cone-size-fits-all\u201d strategy for banking exams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You don\u2019t have to follow every topper\u2019s timetable. You don\u2019t have to cover every single topic. You don\u2019t even have to give up your personal life if that doesn\u2019t suit you. What matters is understanding your strengths, improving your weaknesses smartly, and consistently practicing through mocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So if you\u2019re preparing right now and feeling confused about which strategy to follow, pause for a moment and ask yourself \u2014 What works best for me?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBecause sometimes, success doesn\u2019t come from copying others. It comes from trusting your own path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
