Main ideas / concepts

  • Purpose of the video: A “free preparation strategy” for RRB JE 2026 CBT 1, covering:
    • how to study
    • how to take the test using free/available sources
    • what to focus on in each subject to target ~80 marks
  • Speaker’s credibility / results:
    • Selected in RRB JE 2024 (Bilaspur Zone)
    • Scored about 79.94 (~80) in RRB JE 2025 CBT 1
    • SSC JE 2025: All India Rank 16; in Civil rank 11
  • Core exam pattern claimed:
    • 100 questions / 90 minutes
    • Breakdown (as stated): Math 30, Science 30, Reasoning 25, GK 15
  • Main strategy emphasis:
    • For maximum marks, scoring heavily in Math + Science is crucial.
    • Reasoning is relatively easier.
    • GK should be targeted selectively (not full-heavy studying).
    • Use topic-wise practice through previous year question (PYQ) test series rather than blind mock-taking.
    • Skip difficult questions (avoid spending time on questions you can’t solve).
    • Speaker claim: around 80 marks even after attempting only ~22 Math questions.

Methodology / step-by-step instructions (as presented)

Overall preparation time & structure

  • Time investment (claimed requirement):
    • 3 to 4 hours/day for 2 to 3 months
    • Later mention: assume 3 months for CBT 1
  • Important management idea:
    • Balance technical + non-technical (don’t study only non-technical).
    • Also study CBT 2 simultaneously (briefly mentioned).
  • Late-stage revision allocation (example schedule given):
    • 11–12 hours/day for 3 months (rough plan)
    • Suggested split:
      • Math + Science: 4 hours
      • Reasoning + GK: 1 hour (solve “one set each” from test book)
      • Remaining 3–4 hours: revise technical notes/short notes
      • Remaining 3–4 hours: do PYQ + “fingerprint” (method referenced but not clearly defined)

CBT 1: Subject-wise strategy

1) Math (Maths) — high priority

  • Recommended teaching sources (playlists/courses):
    • Sahil Sir (Sahil Express):
      • mentioned as ~135 videos
      • claims concepts can be covered in ~60 videos
    • Alternatives mentioned:
      • Aditya Ranjan Sir: 40–50 videos
      • Gagan Pratap Sir: 60–70 hours
        • caution: some lectures are very long (e.g., claim that 30 lectures could become 150–200 hours if each is 5–6 hours)
  • How to study Math conceptually + practice approach:
    • Watch the lecture/class.
    • Make Math notes once (speaker emphasis).
    • If weak understanding: speaker suggests practice more than understanding.
    • Example topic workflow:
      • Watch lectures on a topic (e.g., Profit & Loss), take notes
      • Search YouTube for RRB-related Profit/Loss questions
      • Prefer watching the teacher’s RRB-focused class
      • Practice to clear doubts
  • Math test practice using “Test Book”:
    • Don’t buy random books/mocks; use Railway test series section
    • Process (as described):
      • Open Test Book
      • Search “Railway Maths”
      • Go to test series
      • Enroll
      • Use PYP section
      • Start with JE, then consider Group D / ALP / Technician
      • Avoid NTPC (speaker claims NTPC is slightly higher level)
  • Mock/test-taking rule for Math:
    • Don’t attempt all Math questions automatically.
    • Check which questions you can answer; skip the ones you can’t.
    • Speaker claim: attempted only ~22 Math questions yet got around 80 marks.

2) Science (Physics + Chemistry + Biology) — high priority

  • Science topics:
    • Physics
    • Chemistry
    • Biology
  • Recommended notes/process via Telegram PDF (as described):
    • In a PDF shared on Telegram, choose Notes
    • Notes available in Hindi + English
    • Print Physics + Chemistry notes
    • Speaker says they are basic and should be read 2–3 times
  • Science course/playlists: “Science Magnet”:
    • Physics + Chemistry:
      • Do the Virat Batch of Science Magnet
      • Topics cleared through questions + notes
      • Use linked/hyperlinked playlist materials from Telegram
    • Biology:
      • Speaker suggests not printing detailed Biology notes
      • Instead:
        • Watch the Virat Batch once
        • Make your own short notes
      • Speaker claims Biology in JE often asks fewer/easier questions (example reference: exam patterns 2024/2025/2026 mentioned)
  • If Science is not strong (alternative):
    • Use Science Magnet app and take:
      • Nirman Batch / Foundation Batch (mentioned as ongoing/completed)
    • Watch lectures once and review notes.
  • Science PYQ practice using Test Book (as described):
    • Search “Railway Science” on Test Book
    • Go to test series → PYP section
    • Enroll and practice:
      • JE first, then Group D / ALP / SI / Technician
    • Speaker claim: helps prevent questions going “beyond your level.”
  • How to handle doubts during mocks:
    • Write each Science doubt in a dedicated place (speaker uses notes in margin/section)
    • Collect formulas/tricks in one place for faster recall
  • NCERT advice (claimed opinion):
    • Don’t rely heavily on full NCERT due to heaviness
    • Speaker claims Science Magnet is exam-oriented (speaker says they attended and appeared twice)

3) Reasoning — moderate/easy

  • Confidence statement:
    • If you have SSC background, you’ll likely do well in reasoning.
  • Recommended playlist:
    • If you haven’t started Reasoning:
      • playlist of Deepak Sir suggested (noted as somewhat “old”)
  • Reasoning question practice method:
    • Use the same Test Book test series + PYP approach for Railway Reasoning.
    • For stuck topics:
      • search YouTube for that topic, e.g.:
        • “Sitting arrangement / song arrangement Railway PYQ”
      • practice topic questions to improve time efficiency.
    • Goal: improve efficiency so Reasoning doesn’t become too time-consuming.

4) GK — targeted memorization (15 marks)

  • Avoid heavy “full course” GK studying:
    • Speaker argues you should not read entire heavy references (example: epics)
  • Strategy claimed to work (one-shot GK):
    • Do one-shot for:
      • Modern History
      • Polity (speaker repeatedly says “Piti”, likely “Polity”)
      • Geography
    • Steps:
      • Watch one-shots (3–5 hour videos)
      • Watch 2–3 times if needed
      • Memorize core facts:
        • focus on what matters for questions (articles/amendments/parts)
      • Use PDFs if available
  • Economics in GK (if time allows):
    • do it lightly since 1–2 questions appeared
  • Claimed outcome/guarantee style:
    • Speaker claims you can get ~10–11 marks using only GK current one-shot memorization, with questions repeating from these sources (speaker mentions personal experience from 2024 and 2025).

5) Current Affairs (part of GK scoring)

  • Expected frequency (as claimed):
    • roughly 3–5 questions
  • What to focus on (write down 4–5 topics):
    • Important appointments/amendments/who is who
    • Summits & where they took place
    • ISRO-related developments
    • NATO-related submit/summit type items (intent: event + location; wording unclear)
    • One Rank / Rank indexes
    • Sports events from the last 6 months to 1 year
  • Last few days approach:
    • Use a channel: “Current Affairs Updated by Devashish Awasthi”
    • Reportedly uploads yearly current affairs covering the last 12 months (in English)
  • Outcome goal:
    • Speaker says you can solve 2 questions easily, then attempt the rest.

Source / material management (recommended access methods)

  • Telegram PDFs:
    • Speaker repeatedly says:
      • all playlist links and content will be shared on Telegram
      • PDFs include hyperlinks to open playlists directly
      • Physics/Chemistry printed notes and GK/Science materials are also provided there
  • Avoid buying many books/mocks:
    • For practice: use Test Book test series and PYQ sections
    • For mocks:
      • don’t take everything early
      • later take full mocks after syllabus coverage and if 1.5 months remain

Final motivational/role statements (non-strategy)

  • The speaker explains why they made the channel:
    • after selection, they had to leave/skip their job
    • faced issues and wants to prevent similar problems for others
  • Encouragement:
    • Like/subscribe/share
    • Join Telegram
