While preparing for the Current Affairs section of IBPS, SSC, SBI, CDS and other Competitive Exams, students generally try to cover as much content as possible. Their orientation is to memorize a lot of information hoping that some of it would prove to be useful in the exam. However, this is a sure-shot recipe for disappointment.
In our Banking Online Coaching Classes for PO and Clerical exams, our approach is entirely different from other institutes. We focus on in-depth analysis of the exam pattern. Based on this analysis, we teach our students only those concepts which are 100% exam relevant. Our Current Affairs videos available freely on YouTube are a testament to this approach of our faculty. We suggest that after attempting this quiz you should check out these videos for sure, if you have not done so already.
