Descriptive Centric Preparation is the Need of time
No matter how many hours you have spent with study materials till now, scoring high marks in the main examination will depend on how smartly you can express your absorbed learnings on paper.
Given the significance of Descriptive Writing in RBI GRADE B, you should incorporate innovations in your writing to ensure that answers are smartly conveying the depth of understanding of a given issue.
Use the PESTLE approach: For certain types of questions, you can use the PESTLE approach. It means analyzing an issue through various angles such as Political, Economic, Sociological, Technological, Legal, and Environmental (PESTLE). You can use this approach in questions having specific keywords like reasons, implications, importance, significance, effects, impact, and consequences.
Take a middle ground: Neutrality and objectivity are critical intellectual traits of an Officer. You should always reflect it in answers by taking the middle ground. For instance, if a question demands an analysis of a certain government scheme, you can’t write against it or go overboard in its praise because no policy is a magic bullet. There are always some positive and negative aspects of a scheme. Therefore, you should always conclude by saying; While this policy is a step in the right direction, it needs to be further supplemented by reforms.
Wirte shorter Points rather than lengthy Paragraphs: RBI Grade B Main exam intends to test the depth of your understanding. You can display this by covering the maximum dimensions of a topic. Simultaneously, it is also essential to keep your answers crisp and clear. For example, if a question wants you to discuss a particular issue, you will always fetch more marks by writing six small points instead of three lengthy points in the form of long paragraphs.
Add case studies and real-life examples: Adding case studies or real-life examples gives more depth to an answer while conveying to the examiner that you have a comprehensive understanding of the topic. Real-life examples also reflect your intellectual trait and awareness about real issues and use case. Therefore, wherever possible, you should start an answer with an important report, survey, data, or index.
Ensure sub-headings align with the key demand of the question: Most students make mistakes in this, analyze the parts of questions and use similar keywords in your sub-heading.
