Important Tips for MPPSC Exam | Vishnugupta Academy

 

Studying and preparing is vital to success in exams. It is, however, difficult to know how best to manage your preparation period until you have some experience. So we are here to help you regarding how you can start Preparation for the MPPSC Exam & will give you important tips related to MPPSC Preparation.

 

1.    Know your Exam:-

Make sure that you have looked at past papers of MPPSC. This is very important for any exam, this will ensure that you are prepared for the type of exam you will be sitting, whether MCQs, short answers or essays.

 

Know what you are expected to do: for example, how many questions from each section will you have to answer? Of course, you still have to read the instructions on the paper itself and make sure that they are the same, but this will help you to feel comfortable with what will be expected. Even more important, make sure that you have practised the right type of questions.

 

2.  Know your Syllabus:-

Before preparing for any exam, it is most important to know its syllabus. Syllabus is also important because what you are going to study, it is known how important it is for that exam. Sometimes a syllabus is thought of as something that's not important. But it can and should be much more than that. A well-understand syllabus provides information, anticipates questions, provides logistical information and conveys the tone and philosophy of the learning environment. A detailed syllabus signals to students that you take this exam and teaching seriously.

 

3. Make sure you know the practical details about your exam

 

Where will it be held?

What time does it start, and when do you need to get there?

If you have to travel some distance, what time will you need to leave?

What do you need to take with you?

Also, make sure that you know what to do if something goes wrong. You might, for example, be ill on the day, or get held up on the journey, and you need to know who to contact.

 

4. Start your revision early:-

There is no substitute for starting early with revision.

 

You need to give yourself enough time to review everything that you have studied and make sure that you understand it. Last-minute cramming is much less productive.

Ideally, review each subject as you go, and make sure that you understand it fully as this will make revision much easier. Ultimately, the best tip is to study hard to know your subject, and starting early is the best way to achieve this.

 

5. Organize your study time:-

You will almost certainly find some subjects easier than others. You will also find that you have more to revise for some subjects than others. It is worth taking the time to plan your revision and consider how much time you might need for each subject.

 

Plan your revision to ensure that you use your time to your best advantage. When is the best time of day for you—morning, afternoon or evening? Can you do more reading at particular times? This will help you to plan broadly what you intend to do, although you should always make sure that you leave it flexible enough to adapt later if circumstances change.

Organizing a time table is a must for the completion of any subject.

 

6. Look after yourself during study and exam time:-

You will be able to function better if you eat a healthy diet and get plenty of sleep. You all must know that a healthy mind resides in a healthy body.

 

This applies both during your exam period and when you are revising. Surviving on junk food is not a good idea. It is also a good idea to get regular exercise while studying. A brisk walk or exercise will get your blood moving and ensure that you are able to focus.

 

7. Vary your revision techniques:-

They say that variety is the spice of life, and it certainly helps to improve your studying. Always doing the same thing, for example, reading over your notes on a subject, is likely to be quite dull. Spice up your revision period by trying different exercises and techniques.

 

Drawing mind maps or other summary diagrams to test what you can remember, and then checking them against your notes. Notice where you have left out a detail, or there are gaps, and go back and review those areas; and

Organizing a discussion group with some friends, to consider a particular issue or area.

 

8. Vary your locations:-

Changing the location in which you study—for example, your room, the library at school or college, a quiet café, or someone else’s house—is also good.

Research has found that this can help to improve memory retention. It is not clear why, but the suggestion is that the brain makes connections between the background and what you are studying: more different connections makes things easier to remember.

 

9. Take regular breaks

You cannot work solidly for 8 hours. In fact, it is very hard to work in a concentrated way for more than about an hour. You may find that some days you can do more, but mostly, one to one and a half hours is likely to be your limit before you need a break. This will enhance your learning ability.
