Kerala PSC Village Field Assistant Exam Study Plan

Given below is a strategy to prepare a study plan that an aspirant can follow. However, it is best that it is tailor made as per one’s requirements and is a lot more detailed too to add clarity to the entire preparation process.

Cover two subjects at once – this will break the monotony of studying a single subject and will also keep one’s mind sharp.
Do not ignore any part of the syllabus, but change the time that is dedicated toward each part of the syllabus. For instance, if you believe that English is your stronghold and that you can solve questions in mock tests with ease when it comes to the English section, then spend less time studying it. Instead dedicate that time toward studying a more difficult subject.
Dedicate a specific time slot in your study plan toward reading newspapers and magazines. This is to keep you constantly updated and ensure that all the current affairs information is not assimilated at a single time but over a period of time making it easier to retain.
Dedicate time every two days to solve one question paper – it could be a previous year paper, or a mock test or an online quiz. This would serve as a good means to revise, as well as help the candidate identify what additions must be made to the preparation.
Prepare the study plan in detail for a week rather than on a daily basis.
Seek the assistance of seniors, professionals and persons who have cracked this exam to prepare a plan that will best suit you.
