The Madhya Pradesh Public Service
Commission (MPPSC) administers the State Service Exam for recruitment into the various
govt sectors. To ace the exam, one must ensure that they are prepared for the
exam well in advance by relating it to the syllabus and exam guide. For a
detailed syllabus and Exam pattern, it is recommended to visit the official
website of MPPSC. Further, in this article, we will cover the essential aspects
of the preparation of MPPSC and how you can strategize and manage your time to
complete the syllabus and revisions ahead of time.
Understanding the MPPSC 2021 Exam
Pattern
One must begin early preparations with
an organized plan and with definite objects set in mind to ace each stage of
the exam. The first stage is the preliminary exam that is administered as an
objective nature question answer paper. Candidates can assure that they have
acquired essential learning elements before they can start preparations.
The State Civil Service exam is not
very different from the National Civil Service in terms of the syllabus and
subject covered. The only minor difference is noted in the question paper where
state-based questions are asked more frequently. You can join MPPSC
Coaching for your MPPSC exam preparation many
institutes are there in Indore. The following are the different subjects
important for the exam and generic preparation tips related to them:
1. History-
This subject is further divided into
three parts:
· Ancient
· Medieval
· Modern
2. Indian and World Geography
3. Indian Polity
4. Indian Economy
5. General Science and Environment
6. MPPSC 2021 Current Affairs-
Following the current trend on how
problems are being raised concerning current affairs, one must religiously
follow a National newspaper. Approach to read the newspaper should be solely
aligned with the topics included in the MPSC Syllabus.
With a newspaper, students are advised
to read weekly magazines, and several magazines cover current critical affairs
and a lot more.
So, you have got your books, now we
start studying them. Therefore, we have to plan several modifications for our
study. Here are my plans for 5 amendments:
First Reading: Understanding and
Understanding
Second Reading: Remembering
Third Reading: Preparing Before Mock
Test
Fourth reading: Revision in the month
before the prelims exam
Fifth reading: revise one day before
the prelims exam
Before we understand each let us
understand why so many amendments are necessary. You need to feel that the
syllabus of prelims is polite.
There is simply too much information
that we need to store in our brain but there is a limited storage capacity in
our brain. Whatever you study, you will forget in a short period of 15-20 days.
To maintain memory, we need to refresh
it again and again so that it becomes clear to us.
1 First Reading: Understanding and
Understanding
When you first focus on understanding
the concept. For example, in your first reading of the monsoon, understand the
science and logic of the ITCZ movement. There is no need to memorize the
arrival dates of the monsoon, but you should understand this concept but not be
disturbed by the facts and information. Once you understand something, your
brain is able to maintain it for a long time.
2 Second Reading: Remembering
The second reading should ideally be
done within 15–20 days of the first reading. You have understood the concepts
in the first reading, now is the time to memorize it. All important
definitions, diagrams, data, examples etc. for this cram.
It becomes difficult to remember when
there is too much information, so use mnemonics techniques. Mnemonics is a
study of the way we remember information.
3 third reading: Preparing Before Mock
Test
After going through two readings, you
should prepare to take a subject-wise mock test. After the second reading you
are able to remember important concepts. In the third reading you should focus
on the areas that are still weak for you. After this modification give mock
test.
Mock tests should be given not just to
test your knowledge but to add further knowledge. Given the open nature of the
prelims curriculum, it is not possible for textbooks to cover all aspects of a
subject.
Here, mock tests come into the picture.
The questions which you are unable to attempt in the mock test should be
carefully studied and the answers should be understood and memorized.
Similarly, some concepts become clear
when you give wrong answers in tests because the wrong answers get engraved in
your mind and you do not make the same mistake again.
4 fourth reading: Revision in the month
before the prelims exam
The month before the prelims exam
should be reserved for revision only. In these 30 days, revise the mock test
along with all the study material.
5 fifth reading: revise one day before
the prelims exam
This is the final brushing of key
terms. By reading this you already remember all the concepts and facts. You
have to check the important words one day before the exam. This will give you
confidence on exam day.
Remember that prelims exam requires
breadth of knowledge whereas Mains exam requires depth of knowledge. This means
that your net is wide in preparation for prelims, try to leave no stone
unturned. These days the question paper is very unpredictable. This requires
that you take special care in attempting the prelims paper
