How To Score Well In PSA Exams

    You may think that PSA exams are though,frustrating,irritating, a waste of time or whatever you say it but is not.It's hard to say as I also have written the exam but it is pretty useful.If you write it you can basically gain more knowledge and it helps a lot for your future exams . You can also start thinking in a whole new perspective that you have never thought before . It is true that if you don''t score well in this exam your future may get spoiled but this exams helps a lot . It has helped me I have improved my vocabulary , grammar and my thinking skills . By the end of this article I will show you how to score well in this exam and may be also due to this exam it will help you in the future .
    You may also think that they are very hard but you can easily score well in it.You need the correct methods for it.It just takes about 24 hours prepare for it.You may think that is impossible but it is not. PSA Problems in study materials may be though but don't worry the paper will be easy if you prepare well enough.Like I said above it takes only 24 hours to prepare for it.About 8 hours for Qualitative Reasoning,8 hours for Language Conventions and 8 hours for Quantitative Reasoning . Just don't sweat it the exam will be easy do not get freaked out by the problems in study materials but you can use them as they are helpful . The dumbest think to do is to start reading the last day of the exams.It's pretty much a waste of time you will get very tense and basically nothing will get into your head.Try Reading a hour a day and you can complete within a month but I recommend about 2 hours a day for 12 days . Do not read like 3 hours or 5 hours a day if you finish a section and do not start the next section the same day.I know this is the most frequently said advice in the world but believe me I am also a student I also wrote the exam and I know how tense it is . You will get frustrated , you will get tense , some people may also think of suicide if you prepare at the last day.Now  let's see how to study each section.
    Language Convention:-
                        This is the part were they test your Grammar , Vocabulary and  thinking skills . For this you don't need any special books for grammar or anything . All you need is a dictionary and some common sense.For this section you have to be confident on your grammar . You don't need to buy very costly books on grammar and start reading them.All you have to do is be thorough on your previous years and present years grammar . They will also ask lot's of questions to test your vocabulary . This is the method to improve your vocabulary . Take your PSA study material if you don't have a study material take your English textbook or any words with hard words in it and also have a dictionary if you don't have one download one from your computer through the net . There are lot's of sites on the net that has a dictionary . I recommend using a dictionary in your computer . It is much faster than searching the word in a normal dictionary .Start reading any passage on the book you have taken . If you don't know a meaning of any word look it up in dictionary . Keep repeating this for a number of passages by this way you can improve your vocabulary . They will also ask lot's of questions like which word fits gap 10 , which would replace that word . For this you have to be confident on your grammar . That's pretty much it on language convention.
   Qualitative Reasoning:-
                       The basic concept on this section is Common Sense . There isn't much to read but you have to know about blood relation and directions . They will also give a passage and tell you to answer questions.
In blood relation you have know things like who is your son's wife and who is your uncle's daughter . I have given what you need to know below

  • Mother's or Father's Son              -              Brother
  • Mother's or Father's Daughter      -              Sister
  • Mother's or Father's Sister           -              Uncle
  • Mother's or Father's Brother        -              Aunt
  • Mother's or Father's Father          -              Grandfather
  • Mother's or Father's Mother        -              Grandmother
  • Son's Wife                                   -              Daughter-in-Law
  • Daughter's Husband                     -              Son-in-Law
  • Husband's or Wife's Brother        -               Brother-in-Law
  • Husband's or Wife's Sister           -               Sister-in-Law
  • Brother's Son                              -               Nephew
  • Brother's Daughter                       -              Niece
  • Uncle or Aunt's Son or Daughter  -              Cousin
In direction sense test you need to know your directions which is North-East-South-West.That's it for Qualitative Reasoning.
     Quantitative Reasoning:-
                          This is the section that freaks everyone the most Quantitative Reasoning . In Study Materials the problems are given very tough that you will think you are going to fail the exams . Learning this section is not that though . All you have to do is study every Maths and Science formula you have learnt since 6th standard . They will not ask above that . Just have a cool head and do well in your PSA exams
