WBCS (EXE.) ETC. EXAM 2017 Notification.
Posted: Wed Nov 02, 2016 9:43 amWBCS (EXE.) ETC. EXAM 2017 Notification.
Dear Candidate,
We are a team of professionals who guide candidates like you for the WBCS(Exe.) Etc Exam at our institute "SUCCESS". We think and believe that all candidates have merit, more or less of same amount. But they only fail/disqualify in the WBCS exam only due to absence of proper guidance.There are lot of books and notes available in the market. If one starts to study those books it will take 2-3 years for good preparation for an exam like WBCS as you know its services are of highest administrative nature in West Bengal.At the same time I also like to remind you that this exam is not for Scientists, Researchers or Labours. Candidates should have sound basic knowledge and a good strategy for cracking this exam.Changed pattern of this exam has made it easier
provided you know what to study and how to do it.
We at our institute guide the student, take regular exam (2 nos, one for home work and another for improving skill for appearing or answering question in prelims, which has negative marking), give concise notes (from where the questions are generally asked) and of course make strategy for students of diverse background ( since each student is different).We also motivate them continuously.There is also token award for topper in each exam at our institute.
Here only WBCS(A) officers provide guidance and only in weekends.
After a full course here one may be able to take all related exams but we don't take responsibility of that.
Each year a good number of students pass this exam and other exams too from here with our guidance.

Dear Candidate,
We are a team of professionals who guide candidates like you for the WBCS(Exe.) Etc Exam at our institute "SUCCESS". We think and believe that all candidates have merit, more or less of same amount. But they only fail/disqualify in the WBCS exam only due to absence of proper guidance.There are lot of books and notes available in the market. If one starts to study those books it will take 2-3 years for good preparation for an exam like WBCS as you know its services are of highest administrative nature in West Bengal.At the same time I also like to remind you that this exam is not for Scientists, Researchers or Labours. Candidates should have sound basic knowledge and a good strategy for cracking this exam.Changed pattern of this exam has made it easier
provided you know what to study and how to do it.
We at our institute guide the student, take regular exam (2 nos, one for home work and another for improving skill for appearing or answering question in prelims, which has negative marking), give concise notes (from where the questions are generally asked) and of course make strategy for students of diverse background ( since each student is different).We also motivate them continuously.There is also token award for topper in each exam at our institute.
Here only WBCS(A) officers provide guidance and only in weekends.
After a full course here one may be able to take all related exams but we don't take responsibility of that.
Each year a good number of students pass this exam and other exams too from here with our guidance.
