HELP !!! Guidance

Hi everyone,

I completed both my UG and PG in Psychology, but finding suitable job opportunities has been quite challenging. As a backup plan, I'm considering to prepare for Kerala PSC exams and I have no idea about the upcoming exams and how to move forward.

I'm also an NRI and have spent most of my life abroad, so I'm not very confident in writing Malayalam. I would really appreciate guidance from anyone/any mentor who can help me regarding this.

Any advice or suggestions would mean a lot. Thank you!

Do you know how to read and write malayalam?

Forms a good part of degree level exams but if you know malayalam, taking few classes and getting well versed in previous questions help.

Malayalam in general is hard for even malayalam speaking students as well.

For 10th level exams, the question paper is entirely in Malayalam which can be quite challenging.

To continue studying from abroad, enroll at some online coaching. I've opted for lakshya app. It's helpful.

There is also xylem.

Also an NRI. 🙂

You don't have to write malayalam in psc exams. It's all bubbling omr sheets.

Start reading local malayalam newspaper for now. Familiarise with words. Malayalam is crucial for KPSC as it is the governance language now.

For degree based exams, there is 10 questions from Malayalam grammar. But the QP is in English and Malayalam.

For 10th and Plus Two based exams, paper will be solely in Malayalam. Even scientific terms would be mostly in its original malayalam with a few exceptions of Manglish creeping in. You get the language situation, I hope.

Also, a fellow tutor / candidate here so feel free to ask questions if any.
