BPSC 2022: Preparation and Tips


Although everyone must follow the same syllabus, everyone has a distinct style of learning things and preparing. Thus, we have addressed some general guidelines and suggestions that will assist students in going forward systematically.
 

Get thorough with the syllabus

Understand the syllabus before beginning with the preparation. Read it properly and then divide the sections according to your capabilities. Give your undivided attention to each topic for which you are prepared. A proper study regimen is really necessary. You must adhere to your timetable.

The Current Affairs

No doubt, for any government examination, current affairs are the top priority. Get hold of all the current events, be updated with the news, and get a newspaper subscription (if possible, then get a subscription to two different newspapers). Try to choose the reputed newspapers for authentic information. 

Previous year's question paper

Previous year's question papers are easily available on the internet. Collect most of them and practice to understand the pattern of the exam. It has happened that few questions get repeated. So if you are thorough with the preparation you'll be able to crack the exam. 

Get the Best Books

Just like you need good newspapers for authentic news, you need the best books for authentic facts and information. Choose standard books for your preparation and don't alter them in the middle of it. Stick to them and take good notes. Make it a point to set aside at least 2 to 3 hours of your study time for regular review of everything you prepare. Given below are the standard books that the aspirants can go for:
 
Subject Details
History India’s Ancient Past: R.S. Sharma
A History of Medieval India: Satish Chandra
History of Modern India: Bipan Chandra
Indian Art and Culture: Nitin Singhania
Geography World and Physical Geography: D.R.Khullar
Physical and Human Geography: G. C. Leong
Geography of India: Majid Hussian
Indian Polity Indian Polity : M. Laximkanth
The Constitution of India (Pocket Edition): P.M. Bakshi
Introduction to the Constitution of India: D. D. Basu (for conceptual Clarity)
Economics Indian Economy: Ramesh Singh
Indian Economy: Performance and Policies - Uma Kapila
Indian Economy: Mishra and Puri.
 

NCERT Books 

The sole reason to make a separate section of NCERT books is to make the candidate realise how important yet easily accessible these books are. Apart from the best books to acquire, even if you just complete the whole NCERTs, you'll complete 75% of the syllabus. So, do not forget to be acquainted with them.

Mock Tests

Similar to previous years' question papers, mock tests help you practice the exam. practice at least two mock tests every day and analyse them later. You can increase the number as you move further with your preparation. Do not procrastinate to analyse your results. It'll help you know your weak sections and then you could give extra attention to them. 


Aspirants should completely adhere to the schedule and the notes they have taken. This will be beneficial to them in the long term.
