It\u2019s a technique used to save time and keep the reading of the passage to the point. Reading any passage from the beginning and later looking at the questions will always make you consume much more time if compared with the reverse reading method. This is because when you chose to reverse read, you will read the passage from a different perspective altogether. You will be looking directly for the answers. However, you will have to read the passage back and forth if you read it conventionally, especially for NABARD\u2019s RC, where the topics will be technical or syllabus oriented.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mark the keywords in the questions and memorise them <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can even be smart on how you chose to read the questions given. You can look for important keywords which are central to the question asked. Doing so will help you in many ways. You will become aware of the central theme of the passage; you will know what you are looking for.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make your priority to solve passages focused on ESI and ARD<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are high chances you will be asked RCs based on the ESI and ARD syllabus. For example \u2013 RC topics could be on women education in rural areas, the role of integrated farming is shaping the future of Indian farmers, issues pertaining to fisheries in India, etc.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/exams\/banking\/nabard-garde-a\/?refcode=2425&amp;utm_source=Blog_NABARD+Grade+A%3A+RC+Guide_020821_NABGRADAM&amp;utm_medium=Link&amp;utm_campaign=NABGRADAM\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/NABARD-Grade-A-Free-Mock-Test-1-1.png\" alt=\"NABARD-Grade-A-Free-Mock-Test-1\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Work on your reading speed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although you will be using reverse reading, that doesn\u2019t mean you shouldn\u2019t be working on your reading speed. The best way to increase the reading speed is by developing a daily reading habit of good length. It\u2019s hard in the beginning, but gradually you will naturally start reading quickly. Read content digitally also as your examination will be conducted on desktops.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Solve Mock Tests<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to know how well you can do at RCs is by gibing regular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/exams\/banking\/nabard-garde-a\/?refcode=2425&amp;utm_source=Blog_NABARD+Grade+A%3A+RC+Guide_020821_NABGRADAM&amp;utm_medium=Link&amp;utm_campaign=NABGRADAM\">mock tests or mini mocks. <\/a>This way, you are able to assess your performance in real-time with all the conditions that would be present on the examination day as well.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Let go of generalized logic\/knowledge while solving passages<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Never answer the question based on your impulses or pre-conditioned knowledge. Instead, it is a must that you stick to the script of the passage. That way, you will not end up making wrong choices. And will save you from the disappointment of negative marking.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/exams\/banking\/nabard-garde-a\/?refcode=2425&amp;utm_source=Blog_NABARD+Grade+A%3A+RC+Guide_020821_NABGRADAM&amp;utm_medium=Link&amp;utm_campaign=NABGRADAM\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/NABARD-Grade-A-Free-Mock-Test-1-1.png\" alt=\"NABARD-Grade-A-Free-Mock-Test-1\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Focus on certain elements while reading<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Make a habit that you read anything from now on from the perspective of the reader\u2019s point of view as well. Try to evaluate the theme, central issues being raised, implications being discussed, recommendations made, etc. That way, you will always comprehend passages in a much better way. Your reading will have a purpose, and you won\u2019t be reading just for the sake of reading.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/nabard-grade-a\/nabard-grade-a-descriptive-english-tips\/\"><em><strong>NABARD Grade A: Descriptive English (Do\u2019s &amp; Don\u2019ts)<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/nabard-grade-a\/nabard-grade-a-list-of-all-the-reference-books\/\"><strong><em>NABARD Grade A: List of All the Reference Books<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to make passage a high scoring affair, you must follow these instructions.
