My Purpose Print’s Post

With just 4 days left for the CAT examination, I would like to share some D-day tips with everyone taking the exam this Sunday. 1. The night before the D-day 🛌 : If you are unable to fall asleep the night before the exam then trust me, it is completely normal and okay. Just don't use any electronic devices to avoid fatiguing your mind during this time. 2. Before entering the exam centre 📕 : Read a small passage or editorial before entering the examination hall. This will warm you up before the VARC section of the exam and you can focus on the long RCs right at the start. 3. Waiting for the exam to begin ⏰ : Do not talk to the people around you. Everyone has their unique way of attempting the exam and discussing anything moments before the exam will confuse you. Talk after the exam. 4. During the exam 🎯 : Candidates lose hope and get demotivated by seeing tough questions in their 'strongest' sections. Have faith in your prep, if it is tough for you then it is tough for everyone, as simple as that. Every single question answered correctly will greatly improve your percentile. 5. After the exam 🙌 : Celebrate. The D-day is the conclusion of your grit, hard work, and perseverance. A new phase of life is about to start soon, go out and celebrate with your family, partner, friends, and teachers. Hope these tips will be useful in dealing with the exam stress. Wish everyone the best for the exam 🍀 #cat #prep #strategy #exam #aspirants

The CFP exam will be easier if you follow this formula... PREP + REVIEW + MAINTENANCE + RELAX = PASS Here's the breakdown of what I did to pass (on the 1st attempt): ↳PREP You're going to need a general working knowledge of all the concepts. This means you have to read through all of the material.   Understand the Principle Knowledge Topics. ↳REVIEW After reading everything, identify your weakest areas. Cross reference those with most tested areas. Use the bulk of your study time to conduct multiple "passes" in those areas. ↳MAINTENANCE I reviewed my weakest areas multiple times per week (to remain fresh and confident). I reviewed my strong areas about once per week (just to stay top of mind). ↳RELAX Give yourself a break right before the exam.   Let a little air out the tire and go do something fun to unwind. Although it is called the "Mile Wide, Inch Deep" exam because of how comprehensive it is, you can conquer it. Hope you learned something today! 1️⃣ Tell me, are you sitting for the November exam? 2️⃣ Don't forget to tag/mention me in your response so I can respond. 3️⃣ I would really appreciate your reshares/reposts ♻️

After spending six years in the preparation of UPSC exam, I have realized what all I should have done more correctly. The failure of clearing it lies in its strategy and I get the importance of a well-defined and thoroughly analyzed strategy. I want to suggest future and current aspirants to focus on these 3 key areas: 1.Staying updated on the syllabus. 2.Comprehensively reviewing past year question papers(PYQs). 3.Consistent revision. During my initial attempt, I underestimated the significance of revision, leaving it for the final month. This approach proved inadequate due to the vastness of syllabus for the exam. Subsequent attempts involved a combination of all three elements, but I neglected to deeply analyze PYQs. However, fortunately, through multiple attempts at the state PSC exam, I gained experience in incorporating all these elements effectively. While results for some of these attempts are still pending, that aspect lies outside my control. #UPSCpreparation #study #consistancy #growingUp #strategy

One Night Before the Exam ☕️ Back in my second year, I had a unique approach to exam preparation. For my CRPC exams, I focused on just six questions—and when the exam paper was handed out, it turned out those exact questions formed the bulk of it. My friends were shocked, but here’s the story behind how I did it. As the exam season peaks, I wanted to share my method with you. Honestly, I was the type of student who studied 1-2 days before exams. While this approach isn’t recommended, it’s a skill that helped me consistently pass my exams with a 7-8 CGPA—without cheating. It’s important to note that this method won’t enhance your deep knowledge but will help you pass college exams. Here’s the process I followed: ➡️Understand the Marking Scheme and Exam Pattern: Get to know how the exam is structured and what carries the most weight. ➡️Ask for help: Reach out to top performers to understand the important topics. ➡️Prioritize Key Topics: Focus on the essential topics since it’s unlikely you’ll cover the entire syllabus. ➡️Deep Dive into Key Topics and Related Areas: Prepare the important topicsthoroughly, including any related case laws. ➡️Understand Your Professor’s Focus: Pay attention to what your professor emphasizes in lectures—case laws, situational questions, or direct questions. ➡️Next day revised with your friends. SIDE NOTE: this strategy only works if you have a clear understanding of the subject’s basics. Use this method wisely, and good luck with your exams ALL THE BEST #exam #lawexam #collageexam #preperation

Hi, editors! Do you have at least a few years of experience and want to undertake some chunky professional development? Consider sitting the Institute of Professional Editors (IPEd)’s accreditation exam. If you don’t know, the exam is a test of competence, and by administering it, IPEd aims to raise the standard of the editing industry. And many past candidates have said that whether or not they passed, they felt the preparation alone served as excellent PD that sharpened their skills and refreshed their knowledge of a range of things editors should be aware of (such as various style choices and information relevant to ethical and legal issues editors need to be looking out for). Here are some important dates for you: • All registrations open Monday 12 February • Early-bird registrations close Sunday 2 June (early-bird registrations get a discount!) • All registrations close Friday 12 July And, of course, the most important date of all! The 2024 accreditation exam is on Monday 12 August 2024. If you have any questions about the exam or IPEd’s accreditation scheme, you can always contact IPEd directly – the chair of the Accreditation Board (AB) is likely your best bet. Or feel free to message me and ask me questions! I serve on the AB, and I’ll also be volunteering again this year as the admin coordinator for the exam. 🤩 Links are in the comments below. #Editing #Publishing #ProfessionalDevelopment

I was not even going to sit for the XAT exam and ended up with 99.19 in the VALR section ✅ I didn’t write one full length mock for XAT and until 5 days before the exam was thinking of not even sitting for the exam. Why? That’s a story for another post. With close to no XAT focused preparation I managed an 88 percentile overall, which meant that I had cleared the overall cut off for my category but could not clear the sectional cut offs. My VALR score was 99.19 percentile. Which was even higher than my CAT percentile. How did I manage it? While CAT VARC section requires both exam strategy as well as conceptual clarity, due to the shortage of time. XAT on the other hand, is an exam which gives you an ample amount of time. Even though the questions may seem tougher; since there is way more time, and no sectional time limit, you can allot your time to sections as you please. I knew that VALR would be my strong suit. So I took 1 hr 10 mins with it, to maximise my score. All the questions were highly concept based, and though I found some options extremely confusing and close, since I had focused on building my concepts and learning the science behind eliminating incorrect options throughout my VARC prep, I took my time, eliminated incorrect options, chose the right RC’s to solve and managed to score a great percentile without any prior XAT focused prep. The conclusion? For VARC always focus on the science behind eliminating incorrect options. Build your CONCEPTS from the starting, the marks will improve slowly and steadily and the concepts will help you fare well in all exams. There are truly no shortcuts, all you need is determination, a never say never attitude and to keep persevering no matter how bad your mock scores get. My VARC scores had started fluctuating terribly one month before the CAT exam, which was extremely scary, but I kept learning and kept pushing through. Never compromise on building your concepts and it’ll fetch you results in unexpected ways! More about the difference between XAT ,CAT and SNAP English sections in my next posts!
