Read the competition notice

The notice is the most important document when it comes to studying for a public exam. This contains the main information, such as, for example, topics that will be the subject of exam questions, dates and amounts that must be paid upon registration.

It is important to organize a study schedule that covers all the topics present in the notice.

Also, don't forget to pay for registration and be there on the date and time of the test. Studying is important, but so is paying attention to deadlines.

Check out previous tests and essay topics

Once you know “what” the topics will be covered, it’s time to know “how” they will be treated. Therefore, a good choice might be to check previous exams and take these tests to test your knowledge.

Finally, correct the tests based on the published templates and analyze which area most of your errors are. Therefore, it is possible to check which subject your studies should focus on.

Choose a study method

As previously mentioned, there are preparatory courses to study for the public exam. These may require more investment, however they provide a greater chance of approval for the candidate.

At the same time, there are still other opportunities, such as using coaches or even alone. If you choose this last option, you need to have focus and discipline, maintaining the schedule yourself.

Create a study schedule

It is important that you start studying even before the announcement is published! Therefore, it is possible to prepare a schedule based on previous tests and notices and study for the competition with more time.

Your schedule should cover the most recurring topics in notices in the area you plan to provide. Finally, remember to pay special attention to the subjects you have the most difficulty with!

Carry out simulations, reviews and mind maps

Simulations and previous tests are the best ways to test whether your studies are paying off. After this validation, review the content and create mind maps that can help you with this task.

It is important to schedule the simulations in your schedule. Therefore, you can check whether your studies are having an effect from time to time.

Avoid distractions in the study space
