HOW TO PREPARE FOR LDC MAINS EXAM :-
Kerala PSC has released the syllabus for the most-awaited LD Clerk main exam and it’s time to accelerate your preparation. We have been eagerly waiting for this since the 10th level common preliminary exam was over and now, we have a proper direction to follow. Now we should not waste our time thinking about the exam date, but focus more on our studies.
LDC examination is one of the most popular exams conducted by the Kerala PSC in terms of participation and total number of appointments. This is mainly because, the candidates who have cleared the 10th standard onwards are eligible for appearing in this exam (Provided they have reached the minimum required age limit). Other attractions are a greater number of vacancies and proximity to the home place with regard to the posting.
The quest for a government job is ever increasing these days due to many factors such as job security, decent pay-scale, social status, opportunity to serve the people etc. So does the competition. Without a proper strategy it’s not possible to clear such exams. Let’s discuss some of the main points one should understand for developing a better strategy.
What is the exam pattern for LD Clerk Main Exam 2021?
The exam will be held for 100 marks and it includes 100 multiple-choice questions. Each right answer will give you one mark where a wrong answer will lead to a penalty of 1/3 marks. Total duration of the exam is 75 minutes.
Now we can discuss the preparation strategy in detail.
Always Follow the Syllabus:

This is more relevant under the current scenario as there are too many resources/study materials available online these days, one may easily get confused, what to learn and what not to learn. To overcome this situation, you should have a thorough understanding of the syllabus. You should thoroughly analyse and follow the syllabus. Always keep the syllabus with you and stick to the syllabus when you study. This will help you to identify what is relevant from the exam point of view and you can easily save your precious time from learning unwanted/unrelated things.
