2. I did not take any resource for the legal papers, was also preparing for Judicial services so i was used to reading bare acts in a preparation mode. I did saw some videos to tackle the reasoning part on youtube. I dont think you have to take any coaching for that. The only thing you should once take a note of is the previous year questions to get an idea of what you will be getting. There are multiple videos on YT for that too.
3. Constitutional law you will have to do, there is no other way. Again, keep reading the bare act only.
They only ask a couple of questions from CPC in both pre and mains. It won't be your downfall, it won't get you to clear the paper. Just get a reading of the important parts. Get to it only after you've covered everything else.
Since I already have a law firm job, is it worth attempting SEBI / RBI / PFRDA? What are some interesting perks available to governmint legal officers?
1. What did you mean by over-attempting the questions? I should be wary of it.
2. Did you take help of any resource material (online/offline) to prepare for it? (legal papers and the part 1 papers). A google search leads me to multiple websites but i want to hear your opinion on if any one of them is a trustworthy source that can be relied upon.
3. I'm confident in the securities law and company law part (it is why i got the interest) but i'm equally underconfident about the Constitution law and CPC part. Any suggestions on what to specifically focus on?
Thanks.
Since yesterday I have been thinking of preparing for the SEBI Grade A exam (legal stream) but a part of me thinks that i'm a bit late as the exam is expected to be in March 2023. The internet tells me that the exam is difficult and the syllabus is vast which is kind of true. I would like to hear your opinion on the same. I'm an average student. A 70% grade student but I'm smarter than most people. Do you think it is possible to be prepared for the exam in 6 months?
Also, how is working in SEBI like? The salary looks good and since i'm a private uni student i would hardly get that salary at a law firm as an A0.
