If you have the right attitude , surely you will learn many things what other had failed to learn. No matter how many books you have, or how many exams you write, you will get noting with out this ultimate A word.

Materials for preparation:
The source of knowledge is another important aspect. Try books with lot of questions and explanation for each question, this will help you to learn methods to solve each and every type of questions. You should know what type of questions will be asked and how much time you have to spend for it, This can be achieved by having the right materials in your hand.

Make your own book:
Person who is applying for bank exam for the first time thinks that  he is going to get questions in the exam like the sample questions given in hand out. They are wrong, Bank exams these days are getting tougher and tougher as the competition in this field is getting more every day. Many authors are evolving every day, most of them comes out with a better method to solve certain questions. Buy a note pad and write the best shortcut method to solve a question ,which can be achieved by analyzing various book , spending money is not a bad thing, because it will come to you in double when you get this job.  With this notepad you get a last minute revising before examination.

Collect Previous Year Question Papers:
Internet is a wide source of information but as far as previous year question papers it is low. find few question papers in the internet and also buy some books containing previous year question papers. this will help you to know question pattern and blueprints.People who set bank question papers wont change these blue prints at least for a year, so your chance of getting pass is more.

English Knowledge:
A candidate must work upon his vocabulary ,should know lot of English words. In bank exam, especially for P.O post it gets tougher when it comes to English aptitude . Keep the behavior of reading lot of English papers and books.

Strategy:
Strategy will be your main weapon in this battle and every battle. You should know the pattern upside down. you should learn all the methods to solve a question, so that you can fix your strategy wisely. "What is Your strategy for a bank exam ?" i asked one of my friend. His reply "I will work out maths first then reasoning followed by English and then general awareness/socio-economic/marketing/computer knowledge questions" And thats a better strategy.

Knowledge of banking terms and activities:
A  Knowledge in banking terms and their activities will help you in success.Learn a lot about Reserve bank of India, about their acts , policies, committee etc, do the same for SEBI . Make note of authors and their books in that year as far as general knowledge is concern, then know about important people arriving india and also about summits[where&when] .

Leave doubtful questions:
Dont try to attend doubtful questions , because it will extract more time, You should not afford to spend more than 1 to 1.5 minutes for a question. Work out easy questions first, and leave the doubtful ones later, some times you may get time to think clearly at the end.

Donts for Playboys/naughties :
Don’t get yourself in any unpleasant situation, do not use any unfair things like carrying formulas in a paper or in handouts are asking help from others, this is not your school exams , this is your life you may get banned to write bank exams for ever at least for that organization, Thats a black mark. Lot of good looking girls/boys will come to write exam ,dont scatter your mind, You need them in one place to go through these exams.

So i have written everything i know, its all upto you to get pass are not. Please Do remember three thing  practice, practice,practice.

Reduce negative marks in Bank exam

It is one of the major concern for all the people who write bank exams from A-Z, either it is the first time or 26th time you write the bank exam negative marks will come up easily unless you concentrate well on the following things. Normally negative marks range from 0.25 and rarely ends with 0.50 , which depends on the mark that question carries.

I hate negative marks
Ok let us see what we can do to minimize negative marks ?

# First of all, You should know what type questions will be asked in that particular exam, for that you should go through previous question papers, because these guys who are setting the paper has the mentality of using the same blueprint/pattern.This will help you knowing what type of questions will be asked in each section.With that knowledge you can prepare well and also you can plan how much time you are going to spend for each section.

# As the legend says "Practice makes a man perfect" practice and only practice will decide either you win or lose the exam. There are various sites and books that can teach you short cut methods for each problem. get previous year question papers from internet or from the book called Pratiyogita Darpan [i recommend ] and write a mock test in your home and set the stop watch to 115-120 . Learning short cuts will help you in getting answers right and in short time, helping you both in time management and error management.

# Write each and every formulas you see in a notepad or a paper, carry it to the exam center and carefully go through before you enter the exam hall because revising can help you to access formulas quickly from your brain.

# If you find General awareness and  socio-economic questions are tough enough, you can write them in a notepad or paper as per month or year, which will help you in last minute revising .

# Stay calm when you dont know a question or more than a question, Go for the others.If you are confident that you can solve it, then go for it else leave the unknown questions for later,because you may get stuck with it , so leave it for later which will save you some time and also some marks. Don't guess any answer, the probability of getting correct is less.

Please keep these things in your mind, It will help you for sure.
