    • Hi Raza,
      1) Interview questions will be based on general awareness, current topics, post related, concerned subjects etc.
      2) Stay knowledgeable about your surroundings and learn more and more to score more in interview. Practice answering questions in front of panel. This way you will gain confidence for interview.
      3) There is negative marking in Tier 1 exam, so attempt only those questions for which you know the answer. The questions which are not Attempted are not marked.
      4) For Tier 2, the level of questions will be little higher so prepare and practice lots and lots of questions of each subject.

      Prepare the syllabus from books and practice lots and lots of questions. Just studying the basics will not help, how to implement them has to be learnt well. Stay focused for exam and you will achieve best score.
