Time management plays a crucial role in cracking the MPSC (Maharashtra Public Service Commission) and UPSC (Union Public Service Commission) exams, given their vast syllabus and complexity. Effective time management helps aspirants balance their preparation, revision, and personal life.
To begin with, creating a realistic timetable is essential. Break the syllabus into manageable sections and allocate specific time slots for each subject, ensuring that both the core subjects and optional papers are covered. Prioritize topics based on their importance and exam weightage.
Divide your study sessions into focused blocks, such as the Pomodoro technique, with short breaks in between. Regular practice through mock tests and previous year papers helps in understanding time limits and boosting confidence. Avoid procrastination by adhering strictly to the timetable, and ensure that your schedule allows time for relaxation and mental rejuvenation.
