1. Set up a time-table
Prepare a time-table with both short-term and long-term goals. Such a time-table would assist you in completing the target syllabus on time. Organize all the things you have to do and fix your timetable around it. IBPS can be segmented into five broad parts:
Quantitative Aptitude,
English Language,
Reasoning Ability,
General Awareness (with special reference to Banking Industry), and
Computer Knowledge.
Making a time table inculcates a sense of discipline, the aspirant is bound to give a certain amount of time to a particular subject or topic. The topics are like milestones to be crossed to the aspirants. Once you are done with a particular topic, you receive a kind of positive reinforcement to achieve the next target. Regular studies reduce the level of stress, as the amount of topics to be done does not accumulate into blizzards, hence provide the aspirant with a better physical and mental health.
Once you are done with all the topics, you need to revise them all from time to time. If you do not revise the topics that you studied months back, you end up remembering nothing as if you haven’t studied anything.
2. Continuous Practice
Practicing with mocks helps you ace the original tests/examinations and identify your strengths and weaknesses as well. After attempting the tests, you are well aware of your speeds with which you attempt every different section. That way, in the original examination, you will choose to attempt the very section first that you are very good, or say fast at.

Once you are used to giving such tests, any online examination will no longer seem outlandish to you. Understand the syllabus by going through past year’s papers and official guidelines. Practicing previous year’s papers is also very important as it helps in familiarizing the aspirants with the pattern of the exam. It helps them to ascertain how much time they spend on an average in solving a particular question and avoid situations where the bottom falls out of all their strategies when they get stuck pondering over a single low-scoring question for too long and thereby overlooking other high-scoring questions. So, test series and previous year papers actually play a very important role in your preparations.
