A government job aspirant can start the preparation for government jobs either by joining a coaching institute or he can prepare on his own. Though, its easier for a fresh graduate to attend coaching classes, but, if someone is working as well then it becomes necessary to prepare on his own.

Nowadays, there are so many online exam preparation platforms that it is not at all necessary to attend coaching classes. Even when you have attended some coaching class, you would need to study on your own. Because that is the only mantra to clear a government exam. There are many online e-learning platforms that help students in their online exam preparation. Some of them are:

·Youtube Lectures

·Adda24

·Gk today

Apart from that, you can easily start your online exam preparation from your home and crack the examinations; all you need is some good strategy and tips. So, let’s begin with them.

Strategy to prepare for competitive exams

We will be discussing few tips that we already know somehow, but today we will learn how to make these tips the best for you.

1.Self studies- When you are starting your preparation at home without any help of a coaching institution, it is very important that you clear your concepts from every source possible. You can make YouTube your best friend throughout your journey, and can get insightful lectures about whatever topic you want. Or, you can take up some free online classes for better online exam preparation. Apart from the videos, grab the best books for the respective subject and start studying by yourself. Remember to mark or highlight everything important throughout your study, so the next time you come to that page, you will have an important section ready for you.

Also, you can use bookmarks and stickers to mark important parts for you. It helps you in the revision. You can simply highlight the main part and you’re good to go.

2.Make your own notes- Various coaching institutes provide you with their notes, but all the people at a coaching institute get the similar notes, and if you write in the exam an answer, which other 200 person are also about to write, that doesn’t stand out exactly. Therefore, you need to make your own notes. Try writing the answers in your own style. You can follow any formula that suits you. Just make sure that you do not miss any important thing in your notes.

And here’s a special tip- whenever you’re making notes of a subject, make sure that you write on one page and leave the other one blank. This will help you in case you encounter a change or update in the particular topic in future before your examination. When the all information related to a subject will be written at same place, it will be easier to grab.

3.Take mock tests- You don’t need to join a coaching institute for the preparation, but you must definitely take a test series or mock series so that you are in charge of your preparation. And you will be able to know that whether you need to improve in any subject or are you going well. There are many free online e-learning platformsthat provide good quality questions to solve.

4.Keep Revising- When you believe that you are done with a particular subject or a chapter, do not start anything new until you are satisfied that you remember the former one very well. Keep revising again and again unless it sticks into your mind like glue. I am not asking you to mug up things, but re reading things is very important.

5.Assess yourself- If you are doing the preparation at your home, then you might not get the daily and weekly tests and assessments as other coaching going students will do, so you are needed to assess yourself. Make some schedule for weekly tests. You can make a question paper for yourself and then try writing its answers in time.

6.Use the time at your home best- When you enroll in a coaching class, you have to set you your time table as per their schedule, but if you are planning to prepare at home, you are in complete charge of your schedule. You can devote much time than you do in a coaching class and you can decode which subject you must focus on best.

Apart from these tips, an aspirant must remember that these coaching institutes are thriving on the fear of the candidates, that is, what if they would not clear the exam just because they did not join some coaching class. Remember that you would clear a government exam only when you know everything related to its syllabus pattern and requirements and no coaching institute can help you in that.

Introduction

The Covid-19 has brought up a situation where we are confined to our homes. The schools, colleges and the coaching classes everything is under lockdown. We cannot attend classes and have to study from our home itself.

Under these circumstances, the UPSC has also deferred the Civil Services Prelims examination which had to take place on 3^rdof May. Although, the serious aspirants would have already completed their syllabus. But it wouldn’t be true for all the candidates. So, it is the perfect opportunity to either complete what is left or get an extra edge in your preparation.

Study during lockdown

Though studying during lockdown could be a tricky thing for a common student who attends classes or does group study. But it is no big deal for a civil services aspirant. Because, they already remain under self-imposed lockdown during theirgovernment examination preparation.

Avoid Group studies

UPSC exam paper is dreaded for syllabus that covers anything under the Sun. So, candidates find it relatively easier to prepare for this exam with help of their fellow candidates and teachers. However, the situation has changed drastically these days. Thus, to keep you safe and healthy avoid meeting in groups and rather help yourself.

Apart from that, try to avoid sharing books as well because we know how contagious this virus is.

Do not go out unnecessarily

Candidates staying away from their homes for the preparation may have leaved their homes to buy ration and all. But it is very necessary to take precautions and avoid social contacts because it may result into a bad situation. Avoid going out for morning or evening walks. Rather listen to some good music or watch any movie to relax between studies.

Try not to Procrastinate

Given the uncertainty we are living in, it is quite possible that a few candidates would indulge themselves in other activities and may leave the work on the next day. This can hamper the preparation, thus try to achieve your daily targets for the best results.

E-learning platforms

Now that all the book shops are closed and it might be difficult to get some reading material. It is best to make use of the e-learning platforms for watching explanatory videos or attempt tests to practice in a better way.

Online Education

Online education is limitless in the sense that there are so many alternatives present for the students that it makes the government examination preparation relatively easier. You can get help of teachers, mentors or fellow students with the help of online education.

Eat healthy stay healthy

Many a times the candidates neglect their health while preparing for the government examinations. It is necessary to eat healthy and stay healthy to not just beat the examinations blues but also to keep the fear of coronavirus at bay. Remember to take vitamins and minerals so as to keep both the brain and immune system ready for the big task.

Preparation for the beginners

This the apt time for the beginners to kick-start their preparation for the coveted civil services examination. But before rushing into the preparation, the candidates must look at some important things. Like, during lockdown, they can thoroughly go through the UPSC CSE exam pattern.

They need to understand the syllabus of UPSC in depth and also the requirements of the UPSC CSE exam pattern. The most important and the difficult task in the preparation of UPSC CSE exam is choosing the optional subject. So, the candidates can fruitfully utilise this time to research which optional subject would help them the most.

Apart from that, the candidates could take help of the internet, to browse through all the important books and material required for the examination. This would take them in the right direction of their preparation.

Seldom any candidates give time to such things, but in long run these things are very important to help your preparation for government exams and get ahead in the list.

Even if you are not a serious aspirant for CSE, you could check whether it is your cup of tea or not during the lockdown phase.

Conclusion

Being a student, we should make use of every opportunity or situation that comes our way. This lockdown phase is no different. Don’t let it get over you and make you lose focus from your studies. Keep doing what you have got to do. UPSC examinations are not something that can be cracked with one- or two-day preparation. Its preparation requires perseverance, endurance and hard work without any excuse. And lockdown cannot be one of the excuses.

E learning has started to pick up a boom in India. Even in the time of recent lockdown it has proved its worth and stand testimony to its main advantage of anywhere and at any time.

Our education systems are designed with strong emphasis on examinations. For parents and students clearing examinations with flying colours is a thing of family traditions. People feel proud in boasting about their children’s mark in every examination. Just being a good student is not enough until unless one gets good marks in a class. So, the pressure of examination becomes many folds under these circumstances.

The concept of Online Test Serieswas to make a student aware of the know-hows of any exams i.e., the level of difficulty, the number of questions and the pattern of examination. The concept is not new, even in schools before final exams there are a series of pre exams or we can say dummy exams so that you become use to the final exam.

The importance of exams is so that to get an admission in the best college or to get the job of your dreams, one has to get through the process of selection which is a series of examinations that test the variety of knowledge one has.

You are tested for Quantitative Aptitude, Reasoning abilities, General Knowledge/Awarenessand Writing skills and after clearing these there may be an Interview in which you have to get through the Person Skills test.

After keeping all these things in Mind choosing an online test series that fits one frame is a task in itself. We can help one in this by listing the important points to keep in mind while choosing a test series.

But do keep in mind that for every exam choosing a test series requires a different criterion.

Overall, the main points to keep in mind are:

1.Online or Offline?

Try to choose the series as per the mode of examination. If it is an online mode go for an online test series and if it is in Offline Mode keep the test series in Offline mode.

2.Demo Test

It is always better to go for a demo test before the final purchase. Demo will help you with the quality of the questions to match with the real paper. All top players in the market provide a good set of free or demo paper. For some taking only demos is enough. As the real purpose of the test series is just to make a student aware of the real environment.

3.Do numbers matter?

This again depends on user to user basis whether one needs to do 4 to 5 paper or one need 0 to 20.

4.To fit in the changing environment.

Competitions are changing every year. If one is not up to date, then he is not preparing enough to stay in the competition or in the main stream.

Only 1 to 2 percent of all the applicants get a job or get an admission. So how much to prepare is a personal choice.

5.Test Series or Question Bank?

Well this is the main thing or question one has to answer before purchasing a test series. No one can guarantee the real level of difficulty will match their test series. From the user’s point of view building a concept is better option than worrying for the level of questions asked in the final examination. And the purpose of question bank is just to build your concept by throwing ample numbers of questions for a single topic.

So, if your planning is good and you just want to build the concepts than going for a question bank is a better option for anyone.

Hope these things will help you in choosing an online test series for your Dream College or job.
