RBI Grade B Exam 2022: Lessons Learnt

Try to understand the nature of the exam by studying the RBI Grade B previous year question papers.
Do not be overconfident. Despite Anudeep’s strong background in Mathematics, she did not take any of the sections like Quantitative Aptitude or Reasoning for granted. She continued to practice these subjects with the help of the RBI Grade B mock tests. This she did so that there was no mistake made on the actual exam day due to overconfidence.
Also with regard to the subjects that are common for both the RBI Grade B and UPSC exams, Anudeep prepared for them befittingly. Just because the syllabus is similar, it does not mean that the questions or the type of questions asked in the exams would also be the same. For example, subjects like Economics and ESI (Economic & Social Issues) are tested in both.
Anudeep also has a habit of timing herself when answering questions. This is a very unique and effective practice that Anudeep has told us about that we have not heard about from other aspirants. It would be good for you to inculcate the same habit too if you are planning to take the RBI Grade B 2023 exam.
Anudeep was unable to clear the RBI Grade B Phase 2 exam in her earlier attempt because of her slow typing speed. She practiced her typing for the entire year in order to not repeat her mistake. Her hardwork bore fruit eventually.
According to Anudeep, you should certainly not wait for the RBI Grade B Phase 1 results to begin preparing for the Phase 2 exam. The time gap between these 2 exam phases is quite short, i.e., approximately 30 days. The period is only 20 days after the RBI Grade B Prelims results are declared. So, begin preparing right away.
For her RBI Grade B Interview, she took many RBI Grade mock interviews. A feedback that she received during her mock interview was to keep checking the RBI website at regular intervals to check forthe latest updates. This feedback really helped her since she was asked some questions from the RBI reports.
All in all, begin preparing right away, work on your answer-solving/typing speed and do not let any sort of overconfidence hamper your exam preparation.

Irrespective of which stage of your RBI Grade B exam preparation you are on, we encourage you to draw inspiration from Anudeep’s journey. Please be sure to watch her complete interview with Prachi ma’am which has been added for you below.
