2013-04-09 17:58:25My experiences are based on my native State.The preparation varies,depending on the category of Reservation.In the open category,there is a neck -to-neck competition and sometimes,for an ordinary teacher's job,the preparation crosses all bounds.So,I conclude that the aspirants can not take any chances and they are bound to go beyond all levels.It is not just a piecemeal preparation.Most youngsters go into depths.Even among the reserved categories,it is getting tougher. -
