Last Minute Tips for SBI Clerk 2014 - Analogy with Football World Cup

 

Hello Readers,
As we all know, SBI Clerk 2014 exam is starting from tomorrow and the time has come when you will face the exam for which you have worked hard day and night for last so many months. So, here we are presenting to you few last minute tips to remember but in a quirky way. Hope you like it!!


There are many things in our surroundings and day to day life that we can implement to get out as a victor in any of the exams of life and banking exams are only a part of it. Recently concluded World Cup teaches us many things in the same context which we can implement and come out with flying colours.

START AS AN UNDERDOG-

There were some star studded line ups in the World Cup such as England, Spain and Portugal etc , they started as favourites and ended on the flight back home too early then they expected. On the other hand there were teams such as Colombia, Chile and Mexico who started as not even underdogs and these out of contention teams sprung such a huge surprise and wrote a chapter in history.

So. we all should start as underdogs - no flamboyance, no before result promises. Just work hard and in right direction results will follow. The burden of expectations can make you weak from inside so don’t expect just deliver.

DON’T LET THE FRUSTRATION CREEP IN-

In the match between Uruguay and Italy, Italians man marked the Uruguanian strikers and frustrated them in the whole match and eventually Luis Suarez, an experienced and one of the best strikers did that horrible mistake of biting the Italian defender Chellini.

So there will be instances in the exams when the things will not go your way, questions after questions will go un-answered but do not panic if you have prepared hard and have faith in your abilities. Hang on and calmly answer the questions you are confident in. Remember the question paper is tough not only for you but also for everybody else.

DON’T STICK YOUR HEART TO FAVOURITES-

Cristiano Ronaldo, a heartthrob in the football world was one of the favourites to score heavily and to win the coveted golden boot at the end but he failed miserably not because he was bad in the game. Actually arguably he is one of the best but his team let him down and was not able to make a productive move for him on the field.

Similarly there can be instances where you will find that your favourite subject is not delivering dividends for you remember as football is a team game exam is also a game of all subjects together try and be proficient in all the subjects, A professional in all is better than Grandmaster in one, and certainly most result oriented too.

OVERDEPENDENCE IS A SIN-

Football world cup comes once in 4 years time and when you go in such a grand event with over depending on a particular player to deliver for his team is nothing short of a sin, you can cite a case of Neymar Jr. of Brazil. After a breath taking run till the quarter finals Neymar injured his back and was out of the tournament leaving Brazil in dire straits from where Brazil could never recover and were handed a 7-1 rout in Semis and a 3-0 bashing in third place play offs.

So you can never go in an exam for which you burned your midnight oil for an year depending on a certain strategies, you can never guarantee situations and should always prepare a plan B for an adverse situation. As happened in IBPS PO 3 exam the level and pattern of paper was completely changed and left many eligible aspirints off guard and they never recovered from that , So keep a backup plan n sabotage this IBPS entrance easily.

HAVE FAITH IN YOUR ABILITIES-

In a match against Iran, Argentina was feeling helpless against the resilience shown by the Iranian team, they were giving nothing away and were a step closer for a famous and well earned draw, but there was a man named Lionel Messi on the field who knew what he can do and waited for his opportunity as late as the last whistle, he ran in leaving defenders in their wake, cutting through as smoothly as a knife across the cake, precisely made his ground and accurately netted a curling onside the back of the net of a till then tremendous Iranian goalkeeper.

So, in exam you should keep faith on yourself and should know what you can do , their will be instances when people will bog you down or mark you over but you should know what you are capable off. Their was left nothing to prove for Messi even if he has not scored that brace but he knew his target he knew his responsibilities and boy! How well he delivered, hasn’t he ?

DON’T SET BENCHMARKS FOR YOURSELF-

This is a well known fact that expectations always hurt, as it was with English people expecting a miracle from Rooney or Portuguese expecting some out of the box tricks from Ronaldo but these stalwarts failed their countrymen big time.

In exam also, don’t set benchmarks of so and so attempts in respective sections, do every question on its merit and try to be as accurate as possible , wild flukes will not earn you anything.

REMEMBER THE POWER OF HEAVENS -

You may be the best in the world as was Messis or Ronaldos or Neymars or Xavi but above all their is someone up in the skies who is watching your every proceeding and will repay your karma with interest on an appropriate time, Germans were third in 2006 world cup in Germany, third again in 2010 world cup in South Africa but they toiled hard and were more powerful with each so near failures. At the end God smiled it’s blessings on a near decade hard work, so you can also be on the top of the world with an honest and a perfect hard work
