Kerala PSC Exam – Importance of Current Affairs & Tips to Score More Marks - May Current Affairs 2025

PSC BOOK

Preparing for the Kerala PSC (Public Service Commission) exams is not just about memorizing facts from textbooks. To secure a top position in the rank list, one must stay updated with the world around us — Current Affairs. Whether you’re aiming for LDC, Secretariat Assistant, Police Constable, or Degree Level exams, current affairs play a vital role in determining your success.



🧭 What Are Current Affairs?

Current affairs refer to the day-to-day events happening around us — in India and across the world. It includes everything from politics, science, sports, economics, environment, awards, and technology to state-level events related to Kerala.


For Kerala PSC aspirants, the focus should be on:

  • Kerala Current Affairs (Government schemes, appointments, awards, major events in the state)
  • National Current Affairs (Policies, new laws, major national events)
  • International Current Affairs (Global summits, major conflicts, important international awards)
  • Sports & Cultural Affairs (Sports achievements, cultural events, festivals, etc.)


🎯 Why Current Affairs Are Important in Kerala PSC Exams


High Weightage in Question Papers

In most PSC exams, around 10–20% of questions are from current affairs. That’s nearly 10–20 marks that can make a huge difference in your final rank.


Helps in Descriptive & Interview Rounds

Having updated knowledge helps you write better descriptive answers and impress the interview panel with your awareness.


Shows Awareness and Intelligence

PSC exams aim to find candidates who are aware of what’s happening around them — not just book-smart but socially and politically aware individuals.


Easy to Score with Consistent Practice

Unlike subjects that need long-term study, current affairs can be scored easily if you revise regularly and stay updated.


🏆 How to Score More Marks in Current Affairs

1. 📅 Follow a Daily Routine

Spend at least 15–30 minutes daily reading reliable current affairs sources. Don’t skip days — consistency is key.


2. 📰 Read Newspapers & Magazines

Malayala Manorama / Mathrubhumi Daily – for Kerala updates.

The Hindu / Indian Express – for national & international news.

PSC Bulletin, Kerala PSC Monthly, Civil Service Chronicle – for exam-focused coverage.


3. 📱 Use Current Affairs Apps & Websites

There are many apps like Entri, PSC Plus, Study IQ, and Adda247 that provide daily Malayalam current affairs in quiz format.

4. 🧠 Revise Weekly & Monthly

Create a habit of revising all current affairs of the month at once. This helps in connecting facts and remembering events better.

5. 🗓️ Focus on the Last 12 Months

PSC questions are mostly asked from the previous 12 months. So, prioritize the most recent year before your exam.

6. 📘 Practice Through Quizzes

Attempt daily or weekly quizzes to test your memory. Online Malayalam quizzes, mock tests, and PSC apps are great tools for revision.

7. 🏅 Make Notes & Flashcards

Write down key facts like:

Government schemes and their launch dates

Awards and recipients

Important appointments

Summits and conferences

Sports achievements

Keep a small notebook or use a digital note app to record them.

🌱 Bonus Tip – Combine Current Affairs with Static GK

Many PSC questions connect static GK (general knowledge) with current events.

For example:

“The venue of the 2025 National Games is ___?”

Here you need to know both the event (current) and the state (static GK).

So, while studying current affairs, relate them with Kerala geography, history, politics, and economy for a stronger understanding.

Mastering current affairs is not about memorizing headlines, but about developing a habit of awareness. If you read, revise, and practice regularly, you can easily secure 10–20 bonus marks in Kerala PSC exams.

Remember — “Consistency is the key to confidence.”

Start today, follow a daily plan, and turn your knowledge into your strength.
