What’s Holding You Back?

With a large number of candidates appearing for the WBCS exam each year with the hope of cracking the exam, there’s only a few who can actually make it up to the final stage. But why? Well, the reasons could be many. But one thing is common and that is they lack in some way or the other. So, let’s have a look at the probable reasons that could be strong enough to hold them back from fulfilling their dream. 

• Lack of Proper Guidance – One of the crucial things in WBCS preparation is definite and reliable guidance. Without proper guidance, your road to cracking the WBCS exam can get really tough.

• Lack of Confidence/Motivation – The next thing that you require the most for clearing your WBCS exam is your inner confidence. And to achieve it, you need motivation. Thus, without motivation, you cannot gain confidence and without being confident, you can hardly succeed. So, these two elements act as the complements of each other in your WBCS preparation. 

• Unstable & Unsystematic Study Plan – Nothing can be achieved without a proper and stable system. And WBCS? Oh! You just can’t expect any good there if you aren’t following a systematic way. So, a fixed study plan is of utmost importance for you to become a WBCS officer. 

• Improper Strategy – A strategic approach is indeed very essential if you wish to clear your WBCS exam. So, the best way is to start with the syllabus and exam pattern, understand them well and then devise a time-table for preparing each subject and topics. The next thing that follows is problem-solving, revision and practice. Furthermore, there are more tips & strategies within each section of your subjects that you need to adapt in order to save time and enhance accuracy during the examination.

• Low or Insufficient Practice – Lack of enough practice is one of the root causes of failure in the WBCS exam. Most of the time, students, even after learning everything from scratch, fail to attempt questions during the examination just because of their insufficient practice. Thus, practice is very essential in your WBCS preparation.

• Lack of Revision – Another big reason for unsuccess in the WBCS exam is lack of revision. So, guys, never skip revision. Always try to manage extra time for revising all taught/ learnt lessons before sitting for your WBCS exam.

• Poor Selection of Study Materials – Study materials form an integral part of WBCS preparation. Thus, it is very important to choose your books, notes, videos and other resources very cautiously. A wrong or poor selection might lead you to an incorrect path.

• Mismanagement of Time – In WBCS preparation, you need to devote equal time and attention for each subject. Thus, a proper time management skill is essential in order to ensure the best effort. Never forget that it’s simply the wrong management of time that snatches most of your dream of becoming a WBCS officer. 

• Incomplete Coverage of Syllabus – Often students tend to skip portions from the syllabus in the race of finishing their lessons faster and increasing practice and revision. But I tell you, it’s a very bad idea because it might land you in trouble, more often than not. So, always try to complete the entire syllabus without any hurry.

• Undue Stress – Excessive stress is one of the biggest hindrances in your way to success. So, keep calm, be confident, prepare well and give it your best.
