16] How to Prepare For MPSC ASO Exam?

One thing you have to keep in mind that “if you are preparing for this exam then, you are preparing for three exams” means you have opportunity to pass anyone exam or all exams from these three exams. The eligibility criteria are almost same but for the post of Police Sub Inspector there is requirements of Physical standards, otherwise everything is same for these for all three exams.

So here is strategy to tackle MPSC ASO Exam.

First I want to tell you that please if you have your strategy and its best for you then go for it.

So what you think how to prepare for MPSC ASO Examination? is it same like Rajyaseva Exam that after studying for Rajyaseva that study will help us in this exam too. And it’s partially correct, because the Rajyaseva Syllabus is waste and has all dimensions of MPSC ASO Exam.

First you can prepare part of mains exam which is almost not relevant to the preliminary examination or you can prepare that part which is relevant to prelim exam and its depends on you how much time you can remember information if you understand.

If you do not have basic knowledge then you can read state board books first and then try to understand previous years questions papers which are available in our website itself and if you want to frustrate to find questions papers and answers keys then go to the mpsc website after some time you will come here to download questions papers because… because I am not going to tell you? You will get it.

So, if you have time then you can read state board books and questions papers to get more information about types of questions and depth of knowledge as well as standard and quality of questions.

Its depend on you how you will manage your preparation. At least you can devote 4 hrs for reading and max to max 1 hour for thinking and analysis and solving questions papers. 1 hour for newspaper reading. Try to follow it you will get to know that after 1-2 month it would be 4 hrs daily preparations is enough and other time you can spend to get knowledge to understand things in different views not only for exam but for your knowledge.

What is basic preparation and preparation with standard book is ready in the MPSC Tax assistant examination article but others things are not ready in tax assistant examination. There would be change in the tax assistant examination and according to that I will write that article… wait for it. Lots of things are ready to publish on the website but are not completed. Because I link one post to another and another post to another article etc.
