1) Make a timetable and stick to it

This is probably the most important step for any exam. A structured timetable will help you stay on track and not waste time. You should make sure that you dedicate enough hours every day to prepare for the exam.

There are no shortcuts to success, so don't try to cram everything in the last few days before the exam. It is important that you take breaks during your preparation so that you remain fresh and focused.

Also, make sure that you revise whatever you have studied regularly. This will help embed the concepts in your mind and increase your chances of scoring well in the exam.

2) Read Art, History, And Culture Books

If you are studying in a school or college that follows NCERT books, then the syllabus is easy to follow. However, if your institution has its own set of reference books for History and Geography, make sure to read them thoroughly.

For subjects like Art and Culture, there are plenty of general knowledge (GK) based websites available these days where one can prepare themselves at their convenience. Read GK articles regularly so that you don't face any problems when asked questions about current affairs during the exam!

3) Practice As Much As You Can

Practice is the only way to improve your score. So, even if it means spending time with uninteresting books and reference guides at first, don't give up! You will gradually understand that this step alone is enough for improving your skills and taking your overall performance a notch higher than before. Also, make sure to practice regularly so that there are no gaps in between which may affect your preparation negatively. You can also practise through online coaching classes by Achievers Academy.

4) Read Newspaper Regularly

This is one habit that all successful candidates swear by. Reading newspaper not only helps you in keeping up with the current affairs but also widens your knowledge on various topics. You don't necessarily have to read a whole newspaper every day; just make sure that you devote some time every day to reading at least one news article.

You can even refer to websites like The Hindu, Hindustan Times, Indian Express etc. for good quality and updated news articles.

All these steps will definitely help you score well in the RRB NTPC CBT-II exam! So start preparing today and see the difference yourself! All the best!
