In this exam, there is no obligation of minimum marks or percentage for the rest except the posts falling under some departments. In such a situation, lakhs of candidates apply in it. If you also want to succeed in this exam, then you have to make a well-planned strategy to make your preparation easy. For this, it is very important to focus on the main subjects and topics, which are important for the exam.

How to start

Before starting your preparation, understand the official syllabus thoroughly. Proceed only after identifying your strengths and weaknesses in each subject. This will help you to manage your preparation time effectively. It is also very important to understand the important topics and their weightage by analyzing the old question papers.

Give priority to basic knowledge.

Don't rely on a lot of books for this exam, but rely on only one or two certified books. Preparing with your notes is the best option. Apart from this, try to build a strong foundation in the main subjects. For example, in English, focus on your basic knowledge like grammar rules, vocabulary, and reading comprehension, and in mathematics, focus on your basic knowledge like arithmetic and advanced concepts.

Balanced use of shortcuts and tricks

To solve questions in mathematics and reasoning, of course, learn short tricks, but also keep a grip on general concepts. Don't just depend on tricks, but learn to use them wisely. Read current affairs for at least one hour daily. Amar Ujala's monthly magazine 'Safalta' will prove to be very useful in preparing for this section. Pay special attention to the current affairs of the last six months. For this, you can buy Amar Ujala's Year Book-2025.

Caution is also important.
A small mistake can make you lose the exam, no matter how well you are prepared. Therefore, the most important step before starting the preparation for the exam is to fill out the application form correctly. If you have not filled out the form yet, then fill it out carefully. If you have done so, then check all the details once, so that there is scope for correcting any mistake in time.
