    Can I Clear WBCS EXE. ETC. EXAM Without Coaching Classes?

    Yes.

    There are many instances of candidates who cracked WBCS EXE. ETC EXAM. without going any coaching – without spending sleepless nights and truckload of money at any coaching institutes.

    Go through our PSC WB toppers interview section. You can read the testimonials of toppers.

    But is classroom coaching bad?

    No; unless the institutes are misguiding you.

    Upon checking the profiles of candidates who cleared WBCS EXE. ETC. EXAM , we can also see that there are candidates who cleared with coaching, without coaching, left the job for self-preparation, who cleared the exam while working and so on.

    And that itself gives the answer to this question “Can I Clear WBCS EXE. ETC. Exam Without Coaching Classes?” – It can be a YES or NO – It all depends on the person.

    Do you need WBCS Coaching? The Answer To The Long Pending Question!

    Let’s start with Sachin Tendulkar. Everyone knows that Sachin is a genius. He is talented and awesome. But why did he take coaching under Ramakant Achrekar and numerous other coaches? Will he be as successful as he is today without his coaches? Any clue? Ok. Leave that topic now, but try to ponder over this: why did you attend schools and colleges if you were able to study everything on your own?

    We think good coaches and mentors can help their students a lot. Of-course there are many students who do well without mentors (like Ekalavya did in Mahabharatha [excuse us, if the example is too old. Of-course there are examples from the modern world too:-) ]), but there is no doubt about the help good mentors can do. In our opinion, what they do is – reduce the work of students by half! They help reduce the burden of students. By good guidance and clear knowledge, they can help students learn fast and succeed in the age of tight competition.

    Having said that, we didn’t mean that in order to succeed in WBCS Exe. Etc. exam you need to attend coaching institutes the way you attended school. This not necessary. And this is not a must. Why because, you are already graduates! Apart from optional subjects, none of the questions asked in the examination requires specialized study. If your optional is not your subject of graduation, you might need coaching for that, else it is not a necessity.

    Wait, the topic is not over. What if you are not confident that you can finish the vast syllabus by yourself within the limited time? What if you do not know where to start and what to study? What if you don’t know the books and magazines for PSC WB preparation? Here, like what I said before, a good coach can help you reduce your work load by half. But only a good coach!

    What should a good coach do?

    There are two things you need to clear W.B.C.S exam:

    1. Guidance (Strategies).
    2. Knowledge (Study materials and notes)

    A good coach or a good coaching institute should be able to provide these two. If you are not getting relevant and latest strategies and guidance from a coaching institute, even after spending thousands and lakhs of rupees there, then there is no meaning of attending coaching classes. At times, you might even know about students who fail to clear W.B.C.S exam due to misguidance from coaching classes.

    Coaching Classes: The latest realization

    Of-course there are good coaching classes which care for the students and not their money. And not all are bad. Do Join if you find quality institutes. Don’t join institutes with a reputation of misguidance.

    As what you need to get from a coaching class are just guidance and knowledge, in the online age there are alternatives. We are not saying that everyone should start subscribing this website from today :-). Of-course you can, and we hope it will do more good than harm! But as this post is not intended to sponsor ourselves let’s focus back to the topic. Apart from Clear WBCS EXE. ETC. EXAM, there are many other good online coaching websites also which are valued by the WBCS aspirant community, which you can rely upon. Good online WBCS coaching websites provide much free service than many of the coaching centers, which charge you lakhs of rupees for their misguidance!

    If you are still confused, scroll below.

    When do you need Civil Service Exam coaching?

    1. If you are totally ignorant about the WBCS Syllabus, latest pattern, WBCS books and can’t formulate a strategy on your own to crack this exam.
    2. You are running short of time (got hardly 2 or 3 months before the exam), and need a crash course to go through all the important topics and it is also important to know what to study.
    3. If you are a person, who, after whatever efforts put, don’t feel confident to stay alone (without coaching, because of peer-pressure.).
    4. If you have only very little knowledge about the optional subject you plan to take for the main exam and feel it’s a risky strategy to take it on your own.Chosing a proper optional subject is very essential.
    5. You don’t have access to internet to browse good websites which provide WBCS EXE. ETC. EXAM study materials and guidance free of cost and online shopping websites like Online Shopping site in India: Shop Online for Mobiles, Books, Watches, Shoes and More and Online Shopping Site for Mobiles, Electronics, Furniture, Grocery, Lifestyle, Books & More. Best Offers!, which provides door delivery of all books needed for WBCS EXE. ETC. with free shipping and cash on delivery options.

    When don’t you need Civil Service Exam coaching?

    1. If you are confident that you can crack it your own and feel just like PSC WB that coaching institutes are not a necessity in this exam.
    2. If you are from any top institutes in West Bengal and know about the subjects, exam and pattern with details much before.
    3. If you have already attempted this exam with coaching – Since you already know the pattern, necessary books and syllabus, spending time again in the same classes will make you feel bored.
    4. If you are a serious analyzer of previous year questions – PSC WB is putting sincere efforts to reduce the effect of coaching and spoon feeding in WBCS EXE. ETC. EXAM selections, by making a drastic change in exam pattern by avoiding traditional questions and developing questions which require an analaytical frame of mind, an area where coaching institute cannot help much.

    Conclusion: Can one clear WBCS EXE. ETC. EXAM without classroom coaching?

    Whatever conclusion you reach after reading this, to summarize, we are adding the below points:

    • Yes, one can clear WBCS EXE. ETC. EXAM without coaching. But may not be ‘everyone’. It depends on his/her efficiency in self-study.
    • If you are good at self-study, you can clear WBCS without any classroom coaching.
    • Our websites are started just to help the bright minds in India do self-study and crack this exam! We have also launched full length timed online mock test series with negative marking for PSC WB Prelims and mains which can be attempted at wbcsmadeeasy.
    • Whether classroom or outside classroom, good guidance and study materials can supplement candidates’ preparation for PSC WB exam. Underline the words – good, guidance, study materials and supplement.
    • Join a coaching institute only if it serve the above purpose.
    • Now there are online coaching websites which provide quality guidance and study materials.
    • Realize that no coaching institute or online website can make a candidate an WBCS officer, unlike the claims they make. The combination can be best described as 50:50. A good coaching institute can play 50% part, but unless the candidate put the next 50% effort he cannot become an WBCS officer. All the best for all future WBCS officers!
