Ojaswi Kothari RBI Grade B Success Story: From Setbacks to AIR 12!

Have you ever tried for something and not gotten it on the first try? It feels a little sad, right? You start to worry and think, “Can I really do this?” Well, today we are going to talk about a friend, Ojaswi Kothari, who felt the same way. She tried for the big RBI Grade B exam not once, not twice, but three times! And on her third try, she got an All India Rank 12! This is her story, a story of not giving up, and it’s full of simple lessons for you.

Let’s learn how she kept her hope alive and finally reached her dream.

A Little About Ojaswi’s Journey

Ojaswi was always a bright student. She did her Masters in Economics from Panjab University. After studying, she started working. She worked at the Geological Survey of India and then became an Assistant Manager at SIDBI. She already had a good job, and many people would be very happy with that. But in her heart, she had a bigger dream, to become an RBI Grade B officer.

But her path was not straight and easy. Let’s see what problems she faced.

Her First Tries and The Feeling of Being Stuck

Clearing a big exam like RBI Grade B is not easy for anyone. Ojaswi appeared for the exam two times before she finally cleared it. Many students give up at this point. They think maybe this dream is not for them. But Ojaswi was different. She felt sad, of course, but she did not let that feeling stop her. She decided to try one more time, but this time, with a new plan and a stronger mind.

This is where her real success story begins.

The Big Change: A Smarter Plan for Phase 1

For her third attempt, Ojaswi knew she had to do something different. For Phase 1, she focused on just one thing: Mock Tests. She didn’t just read books all day. She practiced questions, again and again.

Why was this so helpful? Because mock tests are like a mirror. They show you what you know and where you are making mistakes. Ojaswi used them to understand her real level.

But clearing Phase 1 was just the first step. The next challenge was even bigger.

How She Prepared for Phase 2

For Phase 2, Ojaswi was very organized. She knew she couldn’t remember everything just by reading.

Here is her simple plan:

• For Finance & Management (FM): She trusted EduTap’s notes. This saved her a lot of time because she had everything important in one place.
• For ESI & Current Affairs: She read the news every day and made her own small notes for government schemes and reports. Making your own notes is like talking to yourself—it helps you remember things much better.
• For Doubts: Whenever she felt confused about any topic, she would go back to EduTap’s notes to make her concepts clear.

This shows us that using a mix of good notes and making your own is a super smart way to study.

How She Prepared for RBI Grade B Interview

After clearing Phase 2, the final step was the interview. This is where many students get very nervous. But Ojaswi scored a wonderful 70 out of 75 marks! How?

She practiced for it, just like she did for the written exam. She gave many online mock interviews, and one of them was with us at EduTap. These practice interviews helped her become confident and speak clearly. She also prepared everything about her own life and background very well.

The interview is not just a test of knowledge; it’s a test of your confidence and honesty. Ojaswi showed them she was ready. 

This amazing score was a big reason she got such a good rank.

But doing all this alone is very difficult. Let’s see who was there to support her.

The Support That Kept Her Going

For Ojaswi, having the right guidance was very important. On a long and difficult journey like this, you need someone who can show you the right path and keep you from getting lost. She felt that EduTap was that guide for her.

This is the most important thing for us at EduTap. We don’t just want to give you videos and PDFs. We want to be your friend and guide, someone you can trust when you feel confused or worried.

So, what is the final message Ojaswi has for all of us?

Your Simple Plan to Get Started Today

Ojaswi’s story is not about being a superhero. It’s a story about a normal person with a big dream who just refused to give up. She teaches us that it’s okay to not get it right the first time. What matters is that you learn from your mistakes and try again with a better plan.

Here are some simple things you can start doing from today:

• Find Your Own Way: Don’t just copy what toppers do. Ojaswi’s plan worked for her. You need to find a plan that works for you. Your journey is your own.
• Make Mocks Your Best Friend: Practice them a lot. Use them to learn, not just to score. They will take away your exam fear.
• Believe in Yourself: There will be days when you feel low. On those days, remember why you started. Keep your focus strong, and you will get there.

Ojaswi’s journey is a beautiful reminder that with hard work, a smart plan, and a little bit of hope, any dream can come true. We at EduTap are so proud of her, and we hope her story has filled your heart with a new kind of energy.

Now, it’s your turn to write your own success story. We are here to help you, every step of the way.
