  2. After a sound foundation is prepared the next stage is to refer some important books of good authors of particular subjects.
  3. Current affairs are playing major role in ICS as well as in all state PSCs, so daily news paper and one monthly magazine is must for qualify.
  4. Regular Tests are the best way to practice the paper in limited time and to analyze the mistakes. Always remember by giving tests, the brain thinks in passive way with all horizons while by only studying, brain works in active way without pressuring itself. So More pain gives more gain. It is better to join more than one test series. (well prepared test series at JPSCnotes may be very helpful for practice)
  • This exam is all about patience and discipline. Regular study with revision is the only key to crack JPSC.
  • Make your own time table and strictly follow it every day, weekly revision on Sundays and monthly revision on 30th will be concrete preparation.
  • Devote your time (about 1 hr) daily on current affairs and writing practice at least 30 minutes for each.
  • Place the maps of world, India and Jharkhand on wall. Use flash cards and small diary for quick revision.
  • Don’t overload yourself with stacks of books rather try to complete less books with more revision.
  • Dont panic yourself, everything can be done with passion and confidence. Just use your potential and give hundred percent.
