Strategies For Success Pdf: Fill & Download for Free

Since I have passed RBI Grade B 2018 with AIR 67, I feel competent enough to answer this question.First I would share my marks-Prelims – 112.5Mains – 218.5Interview – 30Total – 248.5Before I give my strategy, I would like to tell that this is my personal strategy and I would not recommend to follow it blindly. Every person is different with different background and personal strengths. Hence, first I will give my background-I am a B.Tech (EXTC) student from VJTI College Mumbai and graduated in 2015. Since 2015, I have been preparing for UPSC Civil Services and had given 2 mains till RBI. I was decent in Quant and Reasoning and good in English. However, I had zero knowledge about Finance and Management. I failed to clear 2018 UPSC pre and hence decided to prepare for RBI. However, I started to prepare seriously only after the notification was out.STRATEGY-Time Management is very important for Prelims. You have to solve 200 questions in 2 hrs. From videos of previous years successful students, I learned this strategy and tried to implement in mock tests – 15-20 minutes for GA, 20-25 minutes for English, 30 minutes for Quant, 45 minutes for Reasoning and in the same order. I attempted all questions in English and 79 in GA. In quant I attempted 14 in my 30 minutes and then switched to Reasoning where I could manage 26 questions. I think this is a safe and easy strategy. Many ppl take reasoning first and then find themselves with little time for quant and fail to cleat the sectional cutoff. However, now there is sectional timing and hence it eases out the jobPRELIMS-After the notification is out, there is around 45 days’ time for prelims. Hence, first thing I did was jotting down the syllabus on my RBI diary. And then I analyzed it and identified the easy areas in Quant and Reasoning. My priority was to clear the cutoff and target easy questions. In quant there are 30 questions, here I targeted number series and DI i.e. diagram interpretation. These two account for atleast 10-15 questions. Thus atleast cutoff will be cleared. In reasoning, I targeted syllogisms, inequalities, directions, coded inequalities, data sufficiency. However, I completely left puzzles which account for 30 marks. Solving puzzles can take time and a small mistake can cost you valuable time and marks. I don’t recommend leaving puzzles but complete the easy questions first and then go to puzzles. I relied totally on YouTube for quant and reasoning and studied all types of questions related to targeted sections. Here, Amar sir videos can be helpful. However, don’t go for watching all the videos. Select a topic and then watch all conceptual videos related to it. Try to apply that in mocks.For English, I didn’t prepare anything but tried to solve all the questions as fast as I could. Here I followed this strategy as I was able to get 25+ marks in mocks. Those having problems can watch targeted videos on YouTube by just searching the syllabus.For GA, I will first list my sources. Gktoday monthly (one liner summary), Bankersadda capsule for RBI, Vision PT365 of Economy, Social Issues and Govt Schemes, IAS baba summary of Budget, Vision summary of Economic survey, Oliveboard pdf and Wikipedia for all national parks and imp sanctuaries, Sriram’s IAS Economy, One business newspaper (LiveMint is good). 4 months current affairs would suffice but focus more on immediate 2 months before the exam. I kept the material limited due to paucity of time but revised it regularly. Plus I made my own notes in my dedicated RBI notebook especially for budget, growth forecast predictions by various institutions, fund allocation by WB, IMF to various states and scheme, committees and reports- their chairman and cause for appointment.For mains I had around 25 days after pre due to Kerela floods. My 50% of the time went for FM. I watched Manish Kumar sir videos channel (Best material that is out there) and read Edutap notes that are available in the market. I prepared my own notes and this proved very helpful for last minute revision. Focus more on understanding concepts and the formulae will be done automatically. In exam there will be questions which you have not studied. Here you must try to solve them by elimination and applying your existing knowledge. Try to attempt all questions in ESI and FM.For ESI, you just have to revise your GA that you have read for prelims. I just revised it couple of times and prepared the current affairs of the new 25 days after pre. Please devote more time on govt schemes as lot of questions are based on them. However, in the paper, there were very trivial questions about old govt schemes. It is at such questions we are required to apply ourselves and try to eliminate wrong options.For Essays – Edutap comes out with 20-25 essay topics with fodder material. This will suffice. Only 1 out of 4 essay is to be written and just atleast prepare the 10 hot topics. You will definitely get essay out of it. At my time demonetization and financial inclusion came, both of which I had prepared. For any essay, make 4 para – Intro, Positives or opportunities, Negatives or challenges, and conclusion. This structure will work for most of the essays. Try to incorporate data, facts, quotes or committee recommendation in your essay. Other than essay, there is also precis and passage. However, it is important to stick to word limit. For e.g. for an essay of 300 words I completed in 298 words. Try to remain as close to word limit as possible. Avoid typos and grammatical mistakes as they will directly reduce your marks.I won’t discuss about interview as it is the easiest of the three stages and generally there is ample time to prepare. I will talk about it separately.It is important to remember to keep the approach simple. The exam is simple. However, we tend to make it complicate. Rely on limited material, revise it religiously, make your own notes, understand the concepts and attempt maximum questions.Best of luck to all the people preparing.

Thanks for A2A. Let me divide this story into four sections:I used to read newspaper daily in my 9th and 10th classes. I had heard of Kota but never knew about ALLEN, AAKASH. One day I saw an advertisement of Aakash Institute offering scholarship to the students of 10th class through a test ANTHE. I took that test, passed stage 1 but not 2 abd they gave me 85% scholarship on tution fess. I readily took admission in Aakash Institute, Hisar which is about 47 km away from my hometown Bhattu by rail.Preparation timeI joined weekend batch and went to School every day except Saturdays. On weekends( in my 11th and 12th), i used to woke up at 6 am, get ready for Train at 7 am for Hisar. I had to take autowheeler every day from Station to Institute because classes started at 8:30 AM and everybody knows that Indians trains are never on time. I reached back to my home at usually about 7 pm. I got holidays only, if school was off on weekdays, otherwise,“itni jaldi saturday aata ki pta hi nhi lagta”This hectic schedule provided me motivation to study, i discovered my own ways to study, collected resources that i feel important, seek help from JEE aspirant on the same train, we became friends very soon. I never heard lectures of Botany and Chemistry in the class seriously. I love physics, so made a short notebook and note down every possible shortcuts or ways by which a question can be solved efficiently. This short notebook was a great help to me. I never heard talks from the Toppers or their strategies, because what I was doing myself was clearly reflecting in my results. So, i never need to listen to others and that’s still my biggest problem that I never listen to anybody unless my thoughts match. For biology and chemistry i keep on revising things again and again according to the schedules of the Aakash AIATS. After giving my NEET, there was a month gap for AIIMS examination. For biology I studied NCERT only and for physics and chemistry I revised my notes prepared from Aakash modules and question papers.Exam dayAfter taking the online exam of AIIMS, I was so confident that I told my father immediately that I gonna be in Top 10. It has happened to me many a times that I become so overconfident that I have to face the outcomes later.Result dayI am definitely sure that in the history of AIIMS, our seniors were the part of the last batch to have the privilege that the result of AIIMS MBBS entrance examination 2016 displayed ‘Name’ and ‘roll no.’ both merit wise. I looked up top 10 names in the PDF and my name wasn’t there. I got upset as i thought that if I could not make up in TOP 10, then i must not be standing anywhere. Then I directly searched my name on the the pdf and one name got highlighted on ‘15’ as AMIT KUMAR (official name). Its a common name and it took me half an hour more to find my roll no. so that I can confirm my success!!!

Thanks for A2A.First of all I want to tell u that I'm from Arts background & I was way below par in eng and maths. I couldn't understand any terminology of maths in eng (yet I followed book in eng language) & I couldn't write a sentence without grammatical error.I hadn't taken any online or offline course so I hadn't the notes of any subject of any coaching or institute. See my strategy:Reasoning: Not followed any book for this section bcz reasoning of ssc is the most easy & scoring for me. From mocks of prelims, I noticed that some questions of particular chapters were always be wrong (figure counting, time & calander) for this watched & make notes of any random video of any teacher.G.s.: Not followed Lucent, Read static gk from crown (Ritesh Kumar). And for CA watch everyday a video of bhunesh kumar from wifistudy then read only objective questions (2–3 times) from monthly pdf of this session. (But there were a lot of errors in those PDFs)Quant: I have notes of my friend from study iq pendrive course but it is not upto the mark yet I completed this notes first with help of her. Then I started with RYP 7300, solved this book first with the help of solution. Then 2nd time some questions without help of solution then 3rd time 4the time and so on till I solved every question without help of solution. Then moved on class notes of RY sir this book is a boon for me. I have completed this book also 5–6 times. After prelims I was doing on PYQ as much as I can bcz it works like a booster.English: I followed only three books i.e. mirror of common error ,plinth to paramount by Neetu mam & kiran previous year but I revised these books a multiple no of times. After that I did Previous Papers of all tcs questions. For reading comprehension, only two passage and two cloze test complete each day from kiran.I usually made a daily target and I completed my target anyhow. See this image:See the marks of full test 1 and full test 15 & observe the result of hardwork:All the best dear future endeavours!!!😊👍HARD WORK + DREAM + DEDICATION = SUCCESSExcuse for grammatical errors.🙏
