Other theoretical questions can be done through current affairs .specially from daily finance newspapers (Mint and Business Standard) or any other current affairs pdfs

Make extensive use of Investopedia for numericals or basic concepts

For concepts like time value of money, bonds , derivatives Investopedia is one of the best source to be followed

 Multiple documents can be accessed through google on concepts such as bonds and derivates

Most of the coaching material is copied from such sources

In short finance needs to be done with the help of any finance book + newspapers + Investopedia and google for other concepts

Management:

 For management there are many wonderful sources which can be read directly

And thus every coaching institute copied material from it and selling us at a very high price

Managementstudyguide.com is one good source or you can read with any book or online material

Polish your writing skills by penning down articles after reading. Questions are basic in nature other than numerical questions. so brief understanding of financial terms is good enough. Just be updated with current affairs

English: Daily Newspaper THE hindu,Economic times or The Mint . Revise vocabulary daily and understand the words and try to use them in sentences and then in Articles. Read above referred magazines and Write articles and check for any grammatical errors. You can also refer a book for better understanding of how to write an essay

The selection of words is the most important issue here. You have to type the essay so consider increasing you typing speed from now onwards. Do mention facts in the essay whereever it is possible.

Don’t write too much rather be concise and focus on the important parts of the issue.

Always focus on the recent Economy and Finance based topics

Read grammar rules and make sure you improve every time. Practice more and more passages, as now the patterns of most of the banking exams have changed. Just make sure that you have a proper knowledge of language
