Many aspirants fail to clear the CSS exam, not due to lack of intelligence, but because of avoidable mistakes. Here are the top errors:
- Poor Time Management: Without a study plan, time is wasted on less important topics.
- Wrong Selection of Optional Subjects: Choosing subjects based on trends rather than strengths leads to poor performance.
- Neglecting Writing Practice: Good ideas mean nothing if not communicated well in writing.
- Cramming Current Affairs: Instead of understanding issues, many rely on rote memorization.
- Skipping Past Papers: These provide insights into question patterns and examiner expectations.
- Not Taking Care of Mental Health: Long study hours without breaks can lead to burnout.
By recognizing and avoiding these mistakes, candidates can improve their chances of success significantly.
