Banking exams, such as those for Bank PO, Clerk, and other posts, are a big dream for millions of youth in India. However, cracking these exams is not easy. Due to limited seats and tough competition, care and preparation are required at every step. One of the most important subjects among these is Maths. Proper knowledge of Maths and time management can ensure your success, but a small mistake can also shatter your dream.
Importance and challenges of Maths
Aditya, a Maths tutor at a famous coaching institute in Ranchi, says that in banking exams, having clear concepts and the ability to solve questions is important. However, this is not enough. He stressed that if your speed is not right, it will be difficult to pass the exam. On average, you get only one minute to solve a question. If you take more time than this, the rest of the questions will be left behind.
Time management is the key to success.
Emphasizing the importance of time management in banking exams, Aditya says that a maximum of 40 seconds should be taken to solve a question. He warns, “If you spend more than 2 minutes on a difficult question, then there is no point in solving that question. This will reduce the time for other questions, which will hurt the total score.”
How to increase speed and accuracy
Practice is the most important thing to increase speed and accuracy. According to Aditya, students should solve mock tests and sample papers regularly. To make it more effective, make it a habit to solve questions by setting a timer. This method will not only increase your speed but will also give you confidence in the real exam environment.
Choosing the right study material
Choosing high-quality study material is also essential for banking exam preparation. Aditya tells about some of the best books that can help students:
Banking Adda and Mahindra Books: These books are known for high-quality content.
Arun Singh's Maths Book: This book is an excellent choice for the Maths section of banking exams as the standard and quality of the questions are quite good.
Practice will lead to success.
Aditya says that the more you practice, the more you will become adept at time management and the art of solving questions. Regular practice will not only reduce your mistakes but will also enable you to solve difficult questions faster.
