SBI PO Mains 2023 7-Day Revision Plan – Section-Wise and General Tips
Here are some important tips to keep in mind while revising for SBI PO Mains 2023 Exam.
Section-Wise Tips
English Language
The key to clearing the English section is having strong basics. Go through your English notes and grammar rules well. Keep reading and improving your vocabulary. This will always help increase your speed of reading and comprehension. Practice as many mock tests as possible as this will help boost speed, accuracy, and confidence.
Numerical Ability
This section will test your speed and accuracy. Practice as many questions as possible, especially the topics of percentages, simple and compound interest, and profit & loss. It would be helpful to have the basic formulae and concepts written out on a sheet so that you can revise them easily before the exam.
Reasoning Ability
Logic reasoning questions take time to work out. While practicing, give special focus to blood relations, seating arrangements, patterns, etc. This section can be time-consuming and lengthy. Therefore, make sure you pick and attempt questions wisely.
General Tips
- Make a timetable of your own, with mock tests, revision and rest. A clear approach helps avoid confusion and boost confidence.
- Avoid overwhelming yourself during revision. Only revise the topics that you need to strengthen.
- Try to avoid starting any new topics days before the exam. This will only lead to confusion and reduce confidence.
- It would be good to have important formulae and concepts written on a sheet. This will make it easy to revise.
- Take plenty of rest and eat well. Overworking will only affect your performance on D-Day. Relaxation is vital to perform to the best of your ability.
