Question 1: When did you start preparing for banking exams, and what was your first success?

Answer: I started preparing for banking exams in July 2018 and appeared for only 3 exams in that year, i.e., IBPS Clerk, RRB Clerk, and RRB PO. I could not clear both the RRB clerk and PO, but to my surprise, I cleared the IBPS clerk and finally got selected at Bank of India.

Question 2: What challenges did you face in your preparation journey?

Answer: After that, in 2019, I appeared for CWC, FCI MANAGER, SSC CGL, and IBPS PO. I could only clear prelims of all the exams except IBPS PO, for which I also went for the interview but could not make it to the final merit. I could not appear for SBI PO and LIC AAO because I did not attain the age of 21 at that time. The only thing was I could not manage time for study, so I failed in mains.

Question 3: What changes helped you clear multiple banking exams?

Answer: Finally, I made a timetable for myself and started preparing smartly, and this year I cleared all the mains papers of RBI ASSISTANT, SBI PO, IBPS PO, and RRB PO, and finally I am going to join RBI Assistant at the Patna office.

Question 4: What resources did you use for quantitative aptitude?

Answer: I will suggest everyone follow the ARUN SHARMA CAT book and practice all the questions. Try solving all the mock test papers of Oliveboard, which will make you exam ready.

Question 5: What was your strategy for reasoning and English?

Answer: Both these sections are really very tricky. We just need to practice more and more. We do not need to study all the grammar rules but just practice them. Follow Oliveboard and solve all the mock tests. But again, practice can only let you score good marks in both sections.

Answer: Bolt PDF by Oliveboard and Arihant book. (Just read each and every line).

Question 7: How did you prepare for General Awareness?

Answer: BOLT pdf by Oliveboard and any monthly magazine. This section can decide your future. So please do not go for many sources. You just need to study deeply, as questions do not come in a direct way.

Question 8: How did Oliveboard help you in your preparation?

Answer: Oliveboard helped me a lot in this journey. One thing is for sure: the MOCK tests of Oliveboard are really of another level. You can test your reality by analyzing mock tests of Oliveboard. Also, go through the BOLT PDF for computer and English. Please memorize it. It will really help you with your exams.

Question 9: What is your most important advice for aspirants?

Answer: Do not be overconfident in any subject. And focus on all the subjects. The only main thing we need to keep in mind is ACCURACY. Attempt less but be confident. Accuracy is the most important thing. Please focus on accuracy.

I could not study for hours, as I also have to work at the branch, but I knew if I maintained my accuracy, I surely would cross the cutoff.

Finally, I would like to say that please practice daily. And yes, you need not practice for many mock tests. You just need to practice 10-15 questions from every section. Also, when you give any mock test, please review it properly and find your weakness and work on it.
