How to Start Preparations
Quantitative Aptitude
QT is the deal-maker for most of the successful students. If you have solved my "Repeated Questions ebook" without referring the answers, then you can easily attempt 90% of the questions with high accuracy. Time management is the key to success in this section.
Best technique to crack this section is - Use less paper and more Brain. Most of the successful students could solve any question in Quantitative Aptitude section within 1 or 2 steps. Making estimates of calculations is not a bad habit at all, just do it because all the successful students did this.
My Tip
Try to solve QT questions without using pen and paper. Practice this technique everyday for 30 minutes. You will feel improvement.

Reasoning
This is the most time consuming section in the exam. I have shared many shortcut techniques in my "Reasoning Shortcuts" ebooks, this book will help you solve the questions quickly.
Patience and control on your emotions is the key to success in this section. If you have started solving a big puzzles then calm down, it will take at least 10 minutes to solve. If you are running out of time then don't attempt a puzzle.

English
Most of the intelligent students from Bihar and Jharkhand region fails because to study everything in Hindi and they aren't comfortable with English. That's why I recommend all of you to study everything in English, make it a habit. I know Hindi is our national language but there is no Hindi language section and English is our official language now. All the bank documents and communication are made in English.
Start reading an English newspaper, that's the key to success.
