Preparation Tips for upcoming government exams 2025
Why do you think the schedule for the exams or the upcoming government exams 2025 calendar get released as early as a year? Simply to make it easier for students to plan their exam preparation and coachings properly. Just like knowing the dates is important so that you do not miss out on any applications and recruitments, it is also important for proper planning and executing your preparation. Here are some of the tips for students for better preparation and planning:-
Select the exam or set a goal
There are multiple exams being conducted every month by different recruiting agencies like the UPSC, SSC, RRB, State level PSCs etc. and hence it is important that you set a target exam that you would be preparing for. When I was preparing for competitive exams, I was so blinded by clearing the government exam that I applied and prepared for each exam. And trust me, that was my biggest mistake. Without a clear goal, I ended up clearing none. So, It is important that you select one exam goal- be it Civil Services Exam or SSC exam, etc.
Study the syllabus of your target exam
The next important step in your preparation is to read the exam syllabus thoroughly. Scan each word of the syllabus and understand the dynamics of the exam so that you do not miss out on any syllabus section while preparing.
Get Previous Year Papers
Now, take out at least 5 years PYQ or previous year questions to get a detailed idea about the exam type and level and to know whether you are ready to prepare for such types of papers. Syllabus and PYQs together would give you a brief understanding of the examination type and whether it is meant for you or not.
Choosing between Coaching or Self Study
Another important decision while preparing for exams is to decide whether you need coaching or not. While the majority of students prefer coaching foundations for better scheduling and systematic study, the other chunk of people go for self preparation relying on their own methods and resources. Most of the students prefer self preparation only when the syllabus of their target exam is on the similar notes with their previous academic background. I personally recommend coachings especially to those who are new to government exam preparation and have less time to waste on finding the perfect study resources. Coaching not only helps with study material and explanation but they also help you with strictly following the schedule and tracking your performance and progress through mocks.
Finding the best coaching for government exams 2025
“How to find the best coaching?” is the question that lives rent free in the student’s mind. Best coaching depends on many factors- from faculty to your personal convenience. Relying on reviews from your seniors preparing for the exams is the best way to judge the teaching method and relevance of the faculty. Go for demo lectures wherever possible and research about the individual faculty members before choosing the coaching.
Regular Practice and Mock Tests
Simply enrolling in coaching won’t get you good scores. Make sure your revise the subjects taught in the coaching daily and thoroughly. Alongside, give tests and enroll for mock exams and test series to track your progress. Some of the common mock test platforms are-
- Testbook, oliveboard etc for SSC,
- Vision Ias, Forum Ias, Vajiram and Ravi etc for UPSC,
- Adda247 and Testbook for Banking and RRB.
Stay Positive and motivated
Lastly, and most importantly, staying positive and believing in yourself is the key to clearing government exams. Remember, your journey from preparing to actually getting selected would be often filled with setbacks, rejections, and moments of self-doubt. These exams are toughest not just because of syllabus but also because it may take a toll on your mental health. You might go through many failures and attempts before actually succeeding, make sure you are surrounded by positive people and good friends during this journey. Trusting the process and believing in your abilities will ensure success knocks at your doorstep!
