      @Rohit, it does play a major role but its not everything. There are so many candidates with 90+% in academics but they fail to impress the Interview Board so they don’t make it to the final list. Don’t worry about it.

    Also i wanted to know about MPSC Success Mantra provided by you after paying of required amount,what are the content of that Manual ? does it contain only name of books which suppose to follow for MPSC state service exam or what else ?
    My appologies for asking you more questions in one time. Actually I also wanted to know is it realy necessary to join any class for prepartion of MPSC state service exam because i am already working for one of the IT organization and work is in 24*7 manner. even our week ends are also unpredective, so it is difficult for me to join any class for prepartion.So if i follow your MPSC Success Mantra does it sufficiant to achive success in MPSC state service exam ?

      @सलमान, अगर आपका डिप्लोमा 3 साल का है तो आप 2012 की MPSC की तयारी शुरू कर दो क्योंकि अभी आपके पास सिर्फ ११ महीने बचे हैं. हमारा १ साल का प्रोग्राम (PGP ) ज्वाइन करो तो हम आपको ६०-७५ किताबे, ५ मग्ज़िन्स, study प्लान्स और प्रश्न पत्रिका भेज देंगे. पुरे एक साल तक हम आपकी तैयारी करा लेंगे.
