Question from a Visitor

Could you please tell me what should I study for the post of Assistant Commissioner of Employee provident fund I have checked the syllabus but if you could tell me what should I study(I mean reference books etc.).

Readymade books for APFC exam

Exams like APFC are not taken at regular interval, so whenever such exam comes, some bogus moneyminded publication houses, just copy paste few paragraphs and pages related to the syllabus topics, from other books and publish a Guidebook for APFC exam, containing 300 pages!
After 1 month, These people will just change the book cover release the same content for Sales Tax inspector’s exam! Therefore such bogus quality readymade books or study material does not serve much purpose.
Reason: Many candidates also prepare simultaneously for UPSC, State PSC, Banks, SSC and similar jobs therefore competitive level is always very high. You need to have your basic concepts clear and foundations strong. Don’t try to look for shortcuts using such readymade books. (Same Advice for RBI officer, LIC AAO and other similar exams.)

Cost Factor

The General Studies Manual (TMH, Unique, Spectrum) are quite expensive. They’re written for UPSC exam hence very thick and heavy. But the entire manual is not relevant for APFC exam, you’ve to do selective study of only a few topics. So better just borrow it from some friend or try to get an old copy.

Assistant Provident Fund Commissioner (APFC) comprises the following major topics/ broad areas.
The medium of the test will be both English and Hindi.

Paper 1 General English

The questions in General English component of the test will be designed to evaluate candidate’s understanding of English language and workman-like use of the words.

Please go through the separate article on ( how to prepare English for APFC exam. Click Me)

Paper 2 General Studies

Note: whenever I mention NCERT, know that it is legally downloaded for free, in Hindi or English from the official website of NCERT (http://www.ncert.nic.in/ )
Now talking about specific topics under Assistant Provident Fund manager’s exam.

Current Events	Download this package to prepare current affairs since Jan’11. http://mrunal.org/studymaterial/current-affairs-package-2012 From now, ask your newspaperman to throw either Read The Hindu or Indian Express.
Indian Culture Heritage	NCERT class 7 to 12 (History books), class 11/12 books on Art n Culture. (optional) History portion from Tata Macgrawhill General Studies Manual- read stuff related to art, painting, dance, music from Ancient, medieval and modern era.
Freedom Movements	NCERT class 7 to 12 for History. History portion from Tata Macgrawhill General Studies Manual. Note: Syllabus clearly says “Freedom movement” so read only Post-1857 period, no need to read Ancient (Harappa) or Medival (Mughals). + do all the mock tests given at the end of General Studies Manual.
Population	Don’t know, what exactly this means! May be Human Geography class 11/12 book of NCERT could help.
Development and Globalization	See if there are some pdf files on www.egyankosh.ac.in (you’ll need to register there to download files, but it is free.)
Governance and Constitution of India	The best book ever written: relevant for all exams Indian Polity by M.Laxmikanth (TMH Publication) Thorough revision for 5-7 times. Do all mock questions given at the end of his book.
Present Trends in Indian Economy	To get the Basic idea about GDP, GNP, Public Debt, IIP, FII etc. + latest issues in economy, you can read 100+ articles on “Economy for Newcomers” by Mrunal Patel on following link http://mrunal.org/Economy NCERT Class-11 (understanding economic development) http://www.neerajagarwal.info/ncert-books-for-class-10-Understanding-Economic-Development-Social-Science.zip Now Understand: Socialism, Communism, Capitalism, LPG (liberalisation, globalisation, privatisation), Green Revolution etc NCERT: Class-11 (Indian economic development) http://www.neerajagarwal.info/ncert-books-for-class-11-Indian-Economic-Development-Economics.zip Finally: microeconomic concepts of supply and demand, elasticity etc (without going to in mathematical details) http://www.neerajagarwal.info/ncert-books-for-class-12-Introductory-Microeconomics.zip Class-12 : Macro Economy : money and banking, role of RBI etc. (without going to in mathematical details) http://www.neerajagarwal.info/ncert-books-for-class-12-Macroeconomics.zip You may also use Indian Economy by Ramesh Singh (Tata Macgrawhill Publication). Out of all the books on economy, that’re in market right now, this one is the best in my opinion. It gives comprehensive coverage of all the important topics of Indian Economy from exam point of view- without getting into numbers and dates. Whether you’re preparing for UPSC, State PSC or Bank/MBA interviews, it’ll be of great help to you. And then just keep reading either Indian Express or The Hindu on daily basis and subscribe (Free) to my website by clicking me. NOT Recommended Books: Mishra Puri, Dutt Sundaram, Uma Kapila. Because they’re written from academic point of view, we only need some basic and essential concepts from “Exam point of view”. Similarly I donot recommend Pratiyogita Darpan’s “Special” book on Indian Economy for its obsession with numbers and other trivial information.
Accountancy and Auditing	Use National Open School (NOS) material: Click MEYou can use NCERT books. I think class 11/12 has these subjects. OR search www.egyankosh.ac.in (may be in BA/MA Economics section) Or if they’re asking deep questions, you may use Unique Publication’s book on “Commerce” optional subject for UPSC. It has elaborate chapters on Audit and Account.
Industrial Relations & Labour Laws	Search www.egyankosh.ac.in
Insurance	OR search www.egyankosh.ac.in
Basic Knowledge of Computer Applications	If you’re comfortable with computers, then I don’t think any special preparation is required. Else use NCERT’s books on Computer (may be class 10,11,12) or may be Pdf files from www.egyankosh.ac.in for any certificate courses on computer.
General Science	NCERT class 7 to 10 (Freely downloaded from official site) (for additional grip) Science portion from Tata Macgrawhill General Studies Manual.
Geography	NCERT Class 7 to 10 (Social Science) + Class 11-12 (Geography) should be more than sufficient. And then you may solve the MCQs given in the (for additional grip) GS Manual.
Elementary Maths & Statistics	Many people appear for IBPS and SSC have really good grip over aptitude portion. They’ll also appear for Asst. Provident fund. Hence competition becomes really tough. One should be thoroughly prepared for maths and aptitude topic. Mrunal’s articles on Aptitude (Free) to get the basic concepts clear. The standard reference books for aptitude would be (relevant for any exam starting from Bank Clerk to CAT) Quantam CAT by Sarvesh Kumar RS Agarwal’s Verbal and Nonverbal reasoning. However, if you don’t have so much time to go through both of above books, may be you can use IBPS Manual of Disha Expert , it covers all aptitude topics in brief with enough mock-questions.
General Mental Abilities	Same as above.

There are only two rules to crack this exam

For Non-aptitude (history, polity etc) Revise – revise – revise
For aptitude (math,logical reasoning) practice- practice-practice.

Hello Mrunal
Would you be kind enough to through some light on cutoff marks of Apfc 2012 for general catogery. I belong to gen. category & securing 55 marks after tallying answers from google.
Thank you.

Anshuman Rai

Hi everyone
exam was definitely below UPSC level, so the cut off should be higher, what about answer keys?

Madhu

I scored 65%.Does that count, being a girl and OBC?Or should I forget the interview and prepare for something else

DR TOMAR

Reply to this comment

madhu paper was easy but center govt obc ke liya may be 65-70.u should prep for interview…u can chek ans as i paste for booklet code B.

Saket Suman

Cut off will be very high. As paper was easy. And few questions were also repeated from Civil services exam prelims 2012. May be the cut off will be above 70 for general.

where are u visnu sir ? please discuss the questions and answer over here? I am quite nervous.

kalyan

I think cut off would be around 60-65.
though paper seems easy, some questions are tricky….and negative marking is also there…
hence there will be a moderate cut off….

G RAJA

Reply to this comment

yes most of the questions are tricky and some are easy,in quantitative aptitude 4 questions are really tough

dinesh meena

what will be st category cutoff.

G RAJA

hi guys, i got 56 marks and im from general category , plz post all marks so that we can anticipate the cut off mark and plz post correct marks.

DR TOMAR

Reply to this comment

raja mera mrks 71 ha .mujhe nahi lagta mera and app ka intervw call aega. lets see

no the standard of the exam is on par with upsc , u will come to know this after the release of cut off marks(if anyone applies for it through rti)and the cut off will be around 50-55,persons who got around 50 can start their preparation.

Mr G RAJA are u sure as i belong to gen category & getting 55 ??

G RAJA

Reply to this comment

as per the exams conducted by upsc like junior managers in odf,assistant naval stores officers,these exams are also like our apfc not in the matter of syllubus but the nature and competition of the exams and hence we can expect the cut off must be around 50-55

rajender

i have attempted 90 but 10 quaestions have been alresdy found wrong ( 13 were doubtful) so i will get maximum around 70-75. geberal cat. can i expect call?

sorry for typing errors guys

Mrunal

Regarding the Answerkey:

Tomorrow morning, I’m filling RTI to UPSC, seeking the official answerkeys of APFC exam, and another RTI to Ministry of Home affairs, seeking official answerkeys of ACIO exam.
But know that UPSC usually takes 30 days to reply to RTI. So in the mean time, someone upload the question papers (ACIO / APFC) , I can try to solve the questions with answer-source and explanation.

Regarding the Cut-Offs:
If you had prepared diligently, and didn’t tick many of negative answers, then there is fair change you’ll get interview call.

Your fate was already decided the moment you handed over your answersheet to the hall-supervisor. By online Cut-off discussions, you will only increase your blood pressure and loose your sleep.

Besides for UPSC, the expected cut-off and real result are usually different, surprising and at times ‘shocking’- ask it to any one who appeared in CSAT-2012.
Negative marking also plays a huge role here.

While you wait for the result, simultaneously prepare whatever for next exam is coming (CPF, RBI etc). Because When it comes to competitive exams, it is not a good idea to put all your eggs in one (APFC) basket.

All the best.

G RAJA

hi sir,but i think upsc will out the key through rti only after the declaration of final result

  Reply to this comment
  
  Well it doesn’t hurt asking :)
  Besides, Last Friday I filed an appeal to CIC that UPSC is not giving me the answerkeys of CSAT-2012.
  I’m hopeful that CIC will pass an order to stop this practice of UPSC (of not giving answerkeys before final result of an exam.)
