Government-exam prep is a marathon — this checklist keeps you on pace. It covers Bank (IBPS/SBI), SSC (CGL/CHSL/MTS) and Railway RRB (NTPC/Group D). Print it or save as PDF and tick items weekly. From the faculty at Veda Topper International, Irinjalakuda.
1. Set your foundation
- Pick your target exam(s) and download the official syllabus + pattern.
- Track notifications on the Kerala Government Exam Calendar.
- Gather standard books + previous-year papers for each section.
- Set a fixed daily schedule with slots for each section.
2. Section-wise preparation
- Quantitative Aptitude: master basics, then speed methods; daily timed sets. See quant speed tips.
- Reasoning: practise puzzles, seating, syllogism daily. See reasoning practice.
- English: grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, error-spotting.
- General/Banking Awareness: daily current affairs. Join the Malayalam & English capsule and revise banking awareness.
- Static GK (SSC/RRB): revise weekly from one source.
3. Practice & mock tests
- Take a free mock test to find your weak sections.
